Old-School Retro Arcade Game: Spaceship

Hey, do you like gaming?

I’ve been working on a simple old-school retro OpenGL side-scroller shmup, and I’d love for you to check it out!

If you have a moment, it would mean a lot if you could leave a rating, write a quick review, or share a kind comment.

I’ve really enjoyed creating it so far and have plans to add more features soon.

Thanks so much for your support!

    Any chance that you have tried to run this through Proton on Linux?

      It’s actually built on Linux but targets Windows as the primary platform. I’m still learning, but I could port it to Linux if needed. That said, it’s built entirely on cross-platform device libraries compatible with Mac, Linux, and Windows, so running it on Proton shouldn’t be an issue.

    Very cool, may ask what code you used?

        Cool and you did all the graphics yourself? I being playing around with python. Thinking of C ++ myself. It is hard to grasp? Keep in mind I’m in my mid 40’s.

          Of course not! 🙂 You can find a lot of free graphics on itch.io—just use the search bar! Python is super nice and very easy to learn, while C++ can be a bit more confusing due to its additional complexity. I also didn’t start from scratch, which made things easier. Another useful tool is a good chatbot—it really helps with handling repetitive or tedious tasks.
