Overview

Newo Shooter is a rail shooter in a third-person and first-person 3D perspective. The player must navigate his spacecraft, through environments while various enemies (spaceships, robots, creatures, etc.) attack him. Enemies drop various power-ups (free lives, 50% health, weapon upgrades, shields) to help the player. The player receives a score on each level based on how many enemies destroyed. At the end of each level there is a boss that the player must defeat before progressing to the next level.

Things I need/will implement

I'm slowly working through the features I need to code so that I don't get overwhelmed. This is a short list of the features I need to implement;

  • Background Music (dubstep/midi/anything suitable and free)
  • Sound Effects: Explosions, Enemy Fire, Player Fire, Woosh Sound when flying past a building
  • Sky box - DONE
  • Models: Currently I am using Google Sketchup to create collada files. I may decide to scrap this feature and use only cubes or if I manage to finish enough ofthe game I may choose to release the code so someone can make modify it load models.
  • Enemy and Boss Animations/Fire Patterns - Any help on the best way to implement these features in c will be helpful.
  • Story

I can be contacted by email. The contact info via my User page or the WiiBrew Forum or my website or on the GRRLIB forum.

Known issues

  • When moving left or right the view remains locked until the player releases the controller buttons FIXED
  • No Story, Menu, Models or GUI.
  • If you play the game twice the city mysteriously has more random buildings.
  • Ship movement is a bit stiff
  • Upgraded weapons "look" different, but collision detection is only on the center bullet
  • you can't kill the blue box at the end of the stage
  • targeting cursor is a bit off and take some amount of getting accustomed to.
