[Reverse Shmup] OMG ~ One Mighty Guardian

Post by dozus »

Hello guys,

Let me introduce myself, my name is Dodick and some call me Dozus.
I wanted to share what me and my friend have developed which is a reverse-shmup game called OMG ~ One Mighty Guardian. It has been a quite challenging attempt starting from the development of the AI and now when we try to create more option and balancing the game but we are sure that we will finish it. It seems also that there not a lot of reference for us (maybe you can help).
I don't know... I am not sure posting it here is also correct since this is a shmup forum(I am sorry for the inconvenience if it is a mistake to post this here).

We are still in early stages, we have a prototype but it's not ready for the public ( yet..... )

These are some gif's from our game

Spamming the minion

Customizing minion pattern
Image
Calling the big boss
Image
The end of the line, when the "hero" is winning

This is an early version of the gameplay video

We are still perfecting the AI and also creating more options in the game such as creating a passive upgradeable minion that spawned periodically and also more variation on the enemy.

Please give me your input, suggestion, and criticism

All my best ideas are taken!
I wrote up a design for this a little while back, but never executed on it. Damn, you snooze you lose!

Looks neat. Reminds me of an old Newgrounds game with a similar concept.

We might have the same idea, but we might have different execution. You should go for it!!

Wow, do you remember the title :?: It will help me to research more about this genre.

I believe it was called "Inverted Shooter"? It's nowhere near up to par with this game, though.

That's a great idea dude! And looks like a stylish execution. There might be some games like that around from before but for sure I've never seen any. Good luck with the project!

It's called "Boss Rush". Direct link to the game: http://uploads.ungrounded.net/533000/53 ... sh.swf?123
