Hello
Rocks v2 is a medium-paced arcade shooter trying to emphasize targeting as opposed to just shooting everything. Small rocks may release crystal power-ups that when collected, upgrade shields and guns. Shooting these crystals will degrade your ship accordingly. So they become a line of fire hazard. This has the effect of usually doing short blasts in specific directions and herding enemies into positions that diminish that collateral damage.

    - 12 levels and an end game.
    - 4 epic boss battles, some that follow the rhythm.
    - Fantastic sound track.
    - Online high score tables.
    - Pilot training sessions.
    - 3 ships with different controls.
    - Windows, Mac and Linux.
    - DirectX and OpenGL drivers on Windows.
    - Light machine specs.
    - Nice small 5meg download!
    
This is an update to a previous game that I made that I just like playing!  Among the things I listed above, I built a simple lighting engine that was pretty fun to write.  Also the last boss is actually a whole level so the game becomes a vertical scroller!  That decision probably wasn't the smartest since it added about 40% more code than what I had just for that boss (which isn't pictured)

thanks for looking!
