Saviors beta

Post by DrInfy »

I’m sorry if I’m not allowed to post this here, but we’re not really looking for feedback on how to develop a game, but from the actual players playing these games and perhaps create a little hype.

Saviors is an upcoming vertical shoot ‘em up game by Sharpened Edge Studios that we are planning to release for Microsoft Windows through Steam and for Xbox 360.

Gameplay revolves around blowing stuff up, with explosions scaling with the score multiplier ultimately resulting in massive chain explosions. Enemy ships and bullets also collide with each other and world objects.

Saviors has three game modes, each with 4 difficulty settings.
Story mode (casual mode):
Play the game one stage at a time while following the story and upgrading your ship.
Survival:
Play through the whole game with a single life with your ship hull durability remaining from previous stages.
Arcade mode (hardcore mode):
Play through the game with limited number of lives (or more accurately shield charges) and with a deeper scoring system.

Download links to beta version with four first stages and survival and arcade mode enabled:
Hotfile
Mediafire

REQUIREMENTS:
Windows XP/Vista/7
XNA HiDef capable graphics adapter (Geforce 8800 or newer)
Microsoft .NET Framerwork 4.0 (installer included in support folder)
Microsoft XNA 4.0 (installer included in support folder)

I find it quite amusing that the "I have returned topic" that appeared at the same time has 4 times the views and 4 times the amount of replies to this thread. It is probably also the most useless thread that could ever be made. :p
