Colosseum

I'm Tyler and this is my game, Colosseum. Head over to the downloads page if you want to download it, and here are some screenshots if you want to see what it looks like in-game.

Description

I'm developing Colosseum solo, using BlitzMax. I have big plans! Here are some of them I've scanned and here is my to-do list.

This is a retro-style video game with a few modern elements, in the genre of Asteroids. You play a hero driving a tank, fighting for your life in a futuristic Colosseum setting. Enemy robots come at you in waves, which you must destroy before advancing. Between levels, you may visit the shop for repairs and to buy new items with cash gained from kills. After making it past the initial few levels, you unlock "Veteran" difficulty, which allows you to play difficult randomly-generated levels and to unlock for purchase the most prestigious and powerful of the shop items. Because of the persistent elements, you may save and load your progress to/from files on disk; these files are not encrypted.
