DarkeSword Posted August 4, 2007 Share Posted August 4, 2007 Some folks probably already know about this but, Pixel, the author of Cave Story, made a fun little top-down vertical scrolling shmup called Guxt. http://hp.vector.co.jp/authors/VA022293/ Also, there's a soundtrack available for download, with it's own player. It's a small soundtrack, but it's got some nice old-school tunes. Check it out. http://homepage2.nifty.com/rochet/storage/pxstg_bgm_061118.zip Enjoy.

I've heard that Pixel's next game is going to be an RPG. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dhsu Posted August 5, 2007 Share Posted August 5, 2007 That would be the ultimate win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Less Ashamed Of Self Posted August 5, 2007 Share Posted August 5, 2007 Hot damn. This is definitely made of win. I'm not a fan of vshmups but I will definitely give it a shot. Can't wait for the RPG. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Necrotic Posted August 5, 2007 Share Posted August 5, 2007 Simple but a blast to play. Pixel proves once again proves that sometimes being dead simple can be just as fun as being complex as long as the right parts are there. Also, Pixel RPG? -Nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KWarp Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 RPG? I'm thinking worse-case route and not expecting it to ever be finished. Really those things are nightmares to make. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBoss Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 RPG? I'm thinking worse-case route and not expecting it to ever be finished. Really those things are nightmares to make. Pixel has proven that he can make games. Just because [insert forum goer here] tried to make one on RPGMaker and failed miserably doesn't mean everyone else will.

Gollgagh Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 Now if someone would port this to the PSP... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlightlyOddGuy Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 Guxt is fun while it lasts, which is basically up until you beat the score attack mode once. It really needs more levels. I'd much sooner suggest Tyrian 2000 for a free PC shmup fix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gollgagh Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 Yeah well, Tyrian needs to be ported too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Upthorn Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 Played Guxt a while back. I've heard that Pixel's next game is going to be an RPG. Yup. He apologizes in advance if he never finishes it, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
