Raptor: Call of the Shadows was originally released on April 1, 1994. There is a shareware version available for this game which includes the first sector, the Bravo Sector. The full version can still be bought today

As in all shoot 'em up games of this genre, there is a vast number of enemies to kill, both on the ground and in the air. At the end of each wave, and often halfway through the more difficult waves, there is a "boss" which is a single enemy of great size and whom can take a lot of fire before succumbing.

For each target destroyed the player earns credits, with the amount of credits earned per enemy destroyed is proportional to how tough the enemy ship is. Most of the ground objects (buildings, vehicles, turrets) can be destroyed as well. Between new waves and sectors the player can use credits to select among 16 different equipment upgrades (various weapons, "shield-packs", bombs, etc) to be bought for his own aircraft.

The game is divided into three "sectors": Bravo Sector, Tango Sector, and Outer Regions, all of which have nine sub-missions called "waves", making for a total of 27 levels.

Several objectives to complete, but lots of bullets and brawn will be required to blast through this.

]]> 06 Feb 2007 08:20:35 Laser Assault 3 was entered into the Shmup-Dev competition. It is a 2D, one level game. The competition only required one level, and I do not intend to add any more levels. The one level has 4 sections/sectors. Each sector is a couple minutes long, so it is still kind of long. You use the arrow keys to move the ship, and control to shoot. Shift explodes a bomb. There is a help manual included in the game, so the help is not included here. It still contains a few small bugs, and the music doesn't work for all but the first section. The code was kind of messy, so I don't want to work any more on this. Have fun! 15MBs

]]> 19 Jan 2007 06:19:43 Laser Assault 2 is the sequel to Laser Assault 1. This is my first large game, and the first one I had on the Dark Basic forum. It is a one level game with a boss at the end. Don't expect alot, because I had just started programming then, but it is still fun. Its worth the 1.8MB(small) download.

An enemies armada is just ahead. Sneak up behind them, fly through and take down as many ships as possible.
After your mission has been completed we'll finish them. Good Luck!

This is my first XNA game. Very simple, very easy. This was just to sink my teeth into XNA and hopefully, if a find a host, I can put it up for download. One interface bug, but minor and doesn't effect gameplay.
