This project was to make our own side scrolling space shooter

I started with making my own sprites which are 2D pictures that can be used as an animation

This will be the playable character. I have named him Olaf_Spr so when it comes to coding I know what he is called.

To defend him self he will ire blue and green lasers at enemy's

EDIT - he now blinks

His outlines have been redone to make him stand out more from the background

The laser comes from his eye

This will be the enemy sprite named BarmyOwl_Spr, this enemy will fire lasers at the playable character.

EDIT-His eyes move as well as his tie flashes red and yellow as part of an animation.

His lasers come from his eyes

This is the mask, what enemy lasers and objects hit to damage him.

This will be done to all sprites so objects have an accurate boundary so lasers and other objects only damage if hit.

EDIT-all sprites have a precise mask.

This is all the coding for the player object witch includes collision with enemy objects and lasers.

This is the movement coding and the limits coding so the player can move, but not off-screen

EDIT-Limits widened due to being to small in height.

Movement is slightly faster to help dodge lasers.

This is he room or the level, full with moving backgrounds at different speeds, and a foreground of very fast moving stars.

EDIT-buttons taken out due to not enough sprite space

This is what I have so far, as you can see a point system, life bar, jet system and enemies.

Jet particle system now working and active on player

EDIT-giving enemy objects a jet system too.

The audio for enemy's, lasers and player now work and are being used, each sound is unique and given to a separate object.

The sounds including music have been renamed to help me navigate

EDIT- music plays though the game with loop

Enemy one – Fancy Lizard now has an animation

The system has been edited to spawn enemies correctly and play music

EDIT-alarm 1 and 3 are working correctly.

Now when the players death animation finishes the room/level restarts

Destroying instances now work with all objects. So the build up off-screen isn't too big and enemies that are off-screen cannot shoot

Different alarms go for different enemies so they shoot in different patterns.

The shield is now more advanced and includes a better life system

This is the coding for the shield/life bar for when it reaches 0 the death animation plays

The font for the point system has a better name, colour, size and placement, so it is not in the way.

The music ends when the player dies.
