ENEMIES:

ZOMBIE: If you get cornered with low firepower can be a big problem. Will attempt to completely encircle and then eat you.

DEVIL: Have a powerful fireball attack that can quickly end your life. Takes some Heavy FirePower to kill these suckers.

As you gain Kills, A number in the Top right of the screen will Rise. This is your Combo Counter, and it will go down unless you keep killing more zombies faster.

As the Combo counter reaches higher Numbers, you will Unlock weapons, and upgrades for those weapons.

Info:
- 8 Different Weapons
- 90+ Weapon Upgrades
- 2 Types of Enemies
- 3 huge maps each with their own highscore
- 3 Difficulties, each harder then the last
- Enable or Disable Devils (drastically makes game easier)
- Play your own MP3s and Atrac Files right from your /MUSIC/ or /PSP/MUSIC/ folders - sub folder support!
- Interactive Menu - walk to your destination
- Built-In Game Guide with controls, etc.
- Good 'stereo' audio experience (explosions happen left of you , you'll hear them left of you out of the left speaker respectively, with all the action going on it is hard to forget about)

IF YOU WISH TO KEEP YOUR CURRENT HIGHSCORES, JUST REPLACE THE 'EBOOT.PBP' IN YOUR CURRENT BOXHEAD DIRECTORY WITH THE ONE IN THE PATCH!
[u]If you experience any crashing, it is due to the subfolders in your /PSP/MUSIC and/or /MUSIC folders![u]
Current Patch is: #4
[DOWNLOAD]

Bugs:
- I procrastinated for 3 weeks while waiting for some spritesheets so i really rushed the enemy implementation so it may be buggy. For instance an enemy might get stuck on a wall, not saying any will, just that there might be a possibility.
- IntraFont + OSlib graphics dont like eachother, so when you die you may or may not see the screen fade red - no biggie either way (sakya :()

Videos:
MAX Airstrike Upgrade (don't watch if you want to see the best upgrade for yourself in-game)

I talked to SG a while ago about it and he was "working on it" but apparently he is taking a break from coding

[Masteroid]

This is being worked on right now, might have even finished it.

How do you get around the sub folder thing, I just want to play the game and it comes up with this debug crap then I get into the main menu and I go to play and it freezes straight away! How can I play without deleting my music or the sub folders?

[cheewongken]

sry for the bump, but.. i'm sure a lot of people would like an update on this thread.. :/

[Masteroid]

Hell ya. I think SG57 is taking a break though. I think he was going to perth...
