I need to learn how to draw one of these days.

Finally done with my first Flash game (for certain definitions of done). I’m absolutely enamored of Flixel, especially coming from the oft-quirky Multimedia Fusion.

This game is a fairly straightforward sidescrolling shoot-em-up, with a greater focus on dodging than shooting. Collect gems. Ants fire blindly. Bats charge down the center if you wake them up by shooting. Shoot down stalactites to crush enemies beneath for bonus points. Falling stalactites shake the cavern when they land, and might cause unwanted collapses. The enemies get faster, stronger, and more numerous as the game progresses.

Controls: Arrow keys move. X shoots.

Tools: FlashDevelop, Flixel API, GraphicsGale, Modplug Tracker, sfxr, Audacity
