And of course, as a general advice, don't bother with optimizations like this until you actually know you need them. :) this, this, a thousand times this! A quadtree would help you figure out in general what you're looking at, but their most popular use is in collision detection. The idea is to par...

way cool, way way cool. I love seeing the tricks people come up with to make procedural content.

The engine shows definite promise! Good design. I think managing the fire button, mouse position, and direction to be a little much. I love bullet hell shooters, but I found it difficult to play the game on a trackpad (I know, not the right tool for the job.) Perhaps if it were constant autofire, or...

what did you compress this with?

WTF are you talking about?

A game(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_game) called The Nuclear USSR (aka wastelands of death)

are you high??

Good point! I'll work on a strategy to make the player stand out more.

wrote my first functional shader. [[ extern number fartsLeft; vec4 effect(vec4 color, Image texture, vec2 texture_coords, vec2 pixel_coords) { vec4 textureColor = Texel(texture, texture_coords); if (textureColor.w > 0 && textureColor.x <= fartsLeft) { return vec4(0,fartsLeft,0,0.8); } else {...

doh! I have really really naive collision on the win condition. I'll fix you, accidental cheater! I forgot to destroy the last player object's body, so it was you in a past life being knocked into the goal. Rather than run the folks here out of storage space with multiple copies of my game, I'd reco...

This is really only an incremental improvement, but I had to share the animated particles, and the beginning of the new tileset
edit: power ups! badly placed and the effects are weird ones from 3am, but powerups!

I really like the explosions on the enemies as they're hit with your bullets, and that the enemies smoke if they're near death. I think the controls feel a bit floaty. Perhaps set a max speed? also, when I died I got 6YX9KrD.png and last but not least: It's called "scroll shooter". you're ...
