Over at GBATemp, user ZeldaPlayer67 asks.. Could you make a splatoon like game next where you compete with a cpu to color as much as you can within a certain time i would love that!

Frantic disc blasting ahoy!

I'm quite happy with how the game's turned out, but.. 1. It's been one heck of a struggle. and 2. It's really quite a hectic game!!

*phew* I've found it!!

#571 isn't coming together, AT ALL.. No matter what I do, I can't seem to get it to work out. Either it's too easy, and your bullets are too powerful, and the baddies can't reach you... .. or it's WAY too difficult, and the sheer insane bombardment of enemies is completely overpowering.

Picture the scene. A swarm of enemy are bearing down on you, and you have infinite bullets. You hammer the shooty key, and the enemy are thwarted swiftly, because they're right above you, and you needn't even aim. This is the issue that this week's game is currently having. Having the enemies swarm in more varied directions can lead to the game being more than a little unfair. On the other hand, reducing the weapons leads to even more unfairness, as you struggle to fire at the insanity...

Here is the tool .zip contains Windows exe, BlitzMax Sourcecode and this font. Hopefully the font's creator doesn't dislike that I've included it. If you find a better font (eg, one with the little serifs on) then let me know.

I thought that, for this game, having a string of enemies would result in a more difficult enemy to beat.

Here's roughly how the game's looking, so far.

This simple little menu has taken most of the past 24 hours to get working correctly.

Yesterday, I spent a fair amount of time deleting a lot of content

The enemies for this week's game are slightly different than I imagined, but they seem to be spawning and roaming about the level in a decent way.
