This is a devlog to my new SHMUP in the making, Geometrical Rampage. It’s about a square, who goes on… well a rampage. I’m thinking of bosses and stuff and bullet upgrades too, this overall is supposed to be a fun game anyone could play. No link yet by the way since the game isn’t in a playable state. Also my birthday was on Feb 5, Monday hooray

# Devlog 1

_ **Feb, 8. 2024** _

* * *

As of right now I just have movement and shooting. I’m planning on adding basic enemies and progression to multiple bosses. You shoot orange triangles that look like doritos.

* * *

## Plans

* * *

- 10 Bosses
- 5 Common Enemies
- 3 Weapons
- Cool background.

* * *

_Overall, not much today. Just making a plan I guess._

Can you make the enemies circles and triangles?

# Devlog 2

_ **Feb 9, 2024.** _

* * *

I got a circle-pacman character called a chomper in the game. He spawns randomly from the top and goes down, touching him will get you to lose 1 HP and shooting him gives you 5 Score Points. But after a long time, the game gets super laggy. Does anyone have a cure for this?

* * *

## Bugs Found:

- Lag happens after playing for a bit.

* * *

Here’s the link: [https://arcade.makecode.com/#editor](https://arcade.makecode.com/#editor)

* * *

_Overall, not a lot happening yet. Will develop bosses after enemies._

Unfortunately, since we have so many young visitors, each and every post has to be officially approved. Sorry for the delays…but we get used to it!

Also, would you mind using the share button in the upper-right-hand corner to grab the link for your game? The #edit URL will just take everyone to the games that they’re currently working on.

if you don’t shoot him or if he doesn’t touch you, he never dies and stays moving infinitely downwards without interacting with anything. add a bar at the bottom which kills them on contact and you’ll be fine.

Sorry here’s the link to the game; [https://arcade.makecode.com/S22154-58650-99781-71084](https://arcade.makecode.com/S22154-58650-99781-71084)

And yes, @Cursedeclipse you could make a boss. Just make sure it’s shape themed and make sure the boss is fair. Depending on how hard your boss is, is how I’ll put it in what number boss it is.

I’ve got two suggestions that might help!

Either:

1. Make the chompers projectiles that fall from the top:  
 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/makecode/original/2X/3/3edaac648d2139b7663fe005589c04fc00165dc6.png)

2. Or set the lifespan of the chompers to something small, like 1000ms

Square Man with anger issues gets mad at a group of circles for making fun of him since he can’t roll, then his day gets worse as a group of triangles beat him up due to being some of the pointiest out there. Then some other Square had recently robbed the bank and exactly looks like the Square Man who has been having a bad day so the police go after him.

As Square Man runs to his house, he begins trashing everything and goes on a rampage.

no matter how epic snek will be, he’ll be hell to code because of 2 things:

1. splitting is very hard
2. making him wiggle is very hard
