Absolutely fantastic gameplay, graphics, and scripting. However, the sonic wave weapon makes the game too easy. Try making that weapon have a cool down time, or energy that runs out.
Thanks very much. I can only take some credit for the explosion anims - I have adapted them from artwork I found online.
I am still developing this game - progress is slow but a new entity is ready and I will upload it soon.
26-2-08: Added two more entities and made big gameplay changes. Next change will be weapons upgrades.
The extra performance from downloading is well worth it...
I think it runs a bit slower online. Try downloading it.

Project Notes
ENTITIES - a game by Fractal
A simple shoot-em-up.
Up-Arrow = Forwards
Left-Arrow = Spin left
Right-Arrow = Spin Right
Spacebar = Fire
N = Next Weapon
Shoot the hostile entities discovered in this remote area of space. Little is known about them but try to keep away from them because they cause damage to your hull. The state of your hull is indicated by an icon in the top-righthand corner of the screen. Red=bad, Blue=Risky, Green=healthy. Pick up the shield-cells to improve your hull. Unfortunately the entities have been known to capture these cells in the same way.
The basic weapon is slow but dependable.
The second weapon, the Rainbow-Cannon, is very powerfull, though short-range. Use of this weapon is dangerous because shield energy is used to power it. Overuse can cause the hull to fail - beware!
The entities can get very annoyed by your presence in this area of space. Try to eradicate them before they get really angry...
This game is unfinished, though you can play it for a long time facing increasing difficulties until the inevitable...
TODO: Sound. Other entities (there are only three creatures in this game). Other powerups - especially weapons. Gameplay tweaks.
Credits
The artwork in this game is mostly mine. The spaceship and entity parts were crafted from various bits of graphic from the internet. The shield powerup is from "Doom".
The background is from somewhere on the web, but I can't remember where.
