Long time lurker, first time poster. I’ve picked up a lot of great info and insight from here over the years, so thanks all for that. Onto my shilling…
As a (very) part-time indie dev over the last few years, I managed to cobble together a full Unity build of something that ended up being a more atypical take on a side-scroller, with a rotary / twin-stick / multidirectional approach. Figured I'd share the full “beta” that's available on itch: https://r9a.itch.io/tarantula-hawk
Though pretty much content complete, I'm calling it a beta due to any potential bugs, or other asset / performance / quality-of-life improvements (if I ever get to addressing them).
If you'd like a better sense of how it plays, here are some additional videos of me playing on a custom cab: https://vimeo.com/r9aproduct
If anyone takes the time to check this out, it’s appreciated.
