The new game jam made me make my next game
which as decided [here](https://forum.makecode.com/t/what-should-my-next-game-be-baised-off-of/24462) was to be a top-down shooter
so Lazer Larry was born!
Currently there isn’t much because i started it yesterday but its looking good
What is in the game so far
5 guns
4 robots
4 lvls
and a tutorial

Good game but I really do think it could be improved by making the player go a bit slower. Also the controls felt a bit clunky and they can’t work on every device.

I agree with the moving slower part and for the weird controls I’m going to make it 2 player soon which will fix that indirectly

Now that the game jam version is done I’m going to be reworking the game into a Roguelike Dungeon Crawler
Similar to Hades/Enter the Gungeon/Risk of Rain(2)

@richard i just finished watching your stream and saw the part about lazer Larry
Thank you so much for playing
I did have plans to make it more cursed but I didn’t have time
also there are 11 total lvls so it hurt me when I saw the enemy got stuck I died inside
I’m not sure why the “shooty” enemy got stuck in the wall I made something that fixed air raids
(the circle enemy caused that)
the mythical shotgun can be found in any crate its just a whole lot rarer
Ps: there are 8 weapons on the jam version and the shotgun only scrapes the top of the goodies
(also ADM is shortened for Admiral)

Press B to swap weapons
8 items
8 guns
2 subpar songs
not hat rack
2 bosses
( i pray for you that you dont get mike mechson and you get the tank)
the blue orbs give you energy
every weapon requres energy (other then the pistol)

I absolutely ADORE this game! The charm and power this game has is amazing! The music tracks are awesome! The only recommendation is to make natural mana regeneration, because like what normally happens, you can run out and completely lose your way to attack.

I plan on reworking how items well. . . work
you scale way to fast so I’m going to make all items now scale off the weapons base stats
so a sniper would get a better dmg mod than a minigun (laser pointer)
Also, I’ll be adding a second area and a hub world so you can change your hat and do other stuff
and finally making bigger rooms For later areas
i feel like the 8 weapons we have are good
but the items need changing

Love the music! Also the way your gun rotates with you is really good attention to detail and I don’t think I’ve seen it before on makecode! Very cool

sadly when facing Left, the gun is upside down
i can fix it by deleting the sprite then remaking it on the other side flipped but (in my opinion) that feels like something that doesn’t need to be done at the moment
