Hello everyone.

I would like to talk about my new video game: Target Xplosion.

Game trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=07pAMldQFgw&feature=youtu.be

About the Game

Target Xplosion is a 2D side-scrolling shooter game based on various video games, such as R-Type, DodonPachi, and Touhou project (東方 Project).
This is my very first shoot'em up, and I am the only developer of this game.

You can kill enemies using different types of shot (normal shot, missiles, bomb, ...). Shooting an enemy increases your combo value. This combo is very important to  get a high score . The score you will have after completing a level depends on your performance (number of killed enemies, number of deaths, combo value, ...). You can get more information here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aU_l_XFQjpI&feature=youtu.be
 
You don't need to be a very good player of any shoot'em up (in particular manic-shooters) to play it. The game was designed to be easy for casual gamers, and hard for hardcore gamers.


Download + Feedbacks

Target Xplosion is available on Itch.io and GameJolt

The game is in alpha, and may have some improvements according to your feedback, especially on the stage design, enemies, boss patterns, how easy/hard is a specific level, the user interface, what should I improve, and other things I forgot ...

So all I did was watched your first gif, in the post. I don't need to see anything else as I have one question for you: what makes your shootem-up game different from the others, that's already saturating the market?

[Gumichan01]

Honestly, I don't know, but that's not the purpose.

I'm not trying to create a "new" original shoot'em up game. It's just a game I'm developing as an amateur.
I don't plan to sell it.
I just want to share it with other people, even if there are a lot of things to improve (it's just an alpha ^^').

Hello,

I published a new alpha version of the game.
I had to rebuilt it because the game was too hard.

Hello everyone,

It's been a while since the previous release of the game. I worked hard to improve the game after this second alpha release. Finally, the 3rd alpha is out.
