DualShooter is the first public release of eadmaster's homebrew NDS game. It is a vertical shot'em up developed entirely in C with PAlib.
DualShooter 0.8 was submitted to the NEO Spring Coding Compo 2008.
Features
- 3 levels with large scrolling backgrounds captured from the Earth.
- Built in soft-reset/poweroff functions.
- 3 enemies.
- 4 shoot-types (single/double/missiles/double missiles) and bombs.
- Musics, sounds, explosions and all the stuff you would expect from a nice shoot'em up game.
- Everything runs smoothly @60 FPS (tested on a real NDSL with R4DS).
User guide
