Xis is an abstract space shooter set in an alternate universe that is approaching Heat Death. Amongst the remnants of a vast Matrioshka Brain reside a colony of self-replicating semi-sentient machines, the last life forms in existence.

Features

- Six degrees of freedom

- Semi-realistic physics: ships use a "gravimetric brake" that applies
exponential decay to the ships velocity making it easier to control,
however when holding down the slide key (default space) the brake is
disabled and the ship will maintain its momentum unless thrust is
applied (Newton's first law) allowing the ship to move much faster.

- Morphable weapon fire modes: the leadshot weapon for instance on
the lowest setting fires 3 shots at a high rate of fire, and on the
higher setting fires a large number of shots at a higher velocity
but at a much lower fire rate; the weapon can be set anywhere in between

- Built in map editor

- Modifiable game data - modify or add new weapons using a simple script system

The game is still in early development their is currently only 3 (+1 secret) rather sparse levels.

Available Here (For Windows)

i decided to release the source code, that way you'll be able to compile the game on any system that the GLFW library supports.
