Starliege by Kudanaman

[raw]
made by Kudanaman for LD35 (JAM)
In a world where hologram technology has allowed for cloaking, you use your master intelligence to remember the aliens patterns and codes.

NOTICE: IN VER. 1.3, THE ESC BUG HAS BEEN REMOVED, NOW THERE IS NO START MENU SO THE GAME WILL START IMMEDIATELY

Test Your Memory

Instructions:

A: Blue Laser
S: Red Laser
D: Purple Laser
F: Rocket

Ships will show their colors while flying on the right side
but shapeshift to grey once they're on the left

Use your memory and remember the pattern of colors, then shoot the grey ships with the laser of their true color

If you shoot the wrong color at a ship they speed up

Missles kill about a chunk of all enemies on screen, but you only have three, and they only work if you have enough enemies on screen.

Nothing happens when I press Escape ._. Seems like I can麓t start the game.

I like this. The graphics are nice, and I like how you don't actually have to memorize the entire sequence, just remember a few ahead of where you are currently and find the right pace. The FIRST time I played, pressing esc after losing didn't restart it properly (and yes I clicked in the window), but the second time it DID, except there was only one wave of enemies followed by nothing. I had fun though :)

After downloading the 140 MB java framework to play this, I can tell you, the ESC bug is still not fixed. I can get past the first screen if I hit it like 7 or 8 times, but on the second screen where you have to press it again, it gets way stuck.

I love the concept, but in practice there's nothing stopping me from jamming all three fire buttons at once repeatedly and blasting the enemy ships with an inescapable carpet of multicolored destruction. ^_^;

Pressing esc worked for me. Interesting concept of the theme. I found the gameplay quite difficult, I would forget which keys spawned what colour. Overall solid entry.

Nice idea! No problems with it starting.
Couldn't remember the color/key combo, so I kept shooting with everything... Kinda worked...
