Shoot the Barrels. Save the World.

-=-=-

The Brief


Blast your way through the maze, trying to find the three floppy disks that have been scattered throughout the level.
Collect all three, and take them back to the hub, to save each level.

There are many evil dangers lurking in the levels, so be very careful along the way.

How Not to Lose


The enemy can fly through anything, but like to hide behind the barrels, so be really careful where your ship is positioned when blasting them.
Stay far enough away to destroy the barrels safely, but close enough so that you can grab any gems that might appear.

What I Didn't Do


Snake enemies.
I REALLY wanted to add Snake enemies, but couldn't figure out a way to add them without needing more and more memory to store the locations of each pod. At the minute, each enemy uses 10 values, for enemy type, position x&y, direction x&y, rotation, colour, health, weapon reload (for the guns) and sprite animation frame. I couldn't figure out the best way to add "And a trail of them!" without significant reworking of the numbers.
Bah, humbug!!
