CIPHER:

This is a vertical shoot 'em up project I've been working on since 2008.  It's done in Multimedia Fusion 2.

That's pretty cool.
I'd help out if I could, but I don't have any skills to offer.

You know, sometimes I'm kinda glad I was (temporarly) a part of this. I can see major improvement with the graphics, although it could've used a boss track (most top-down shooters have 'em).

Workshop/DA/YT/Photobucket なにかんがえてるの!?
So its about ass now huh? EVEN THE ASS HAS 'EXCEEDED'!

One mention of LEGENDS and everyone goes batshit.  :\

Yep, every time when someone mentions that game people get energized for an apparent reason whatsoever. It's like this everywhere else, trust me.

It got really messy to find my sprite and comic topic, so it's in my sig.

I have a boss track, but I'm not sure how to set a system that recognizes a boss fight (I don't want to use the "warning" sign).  Also, the boss track kind of sucks, but I'll give it a shot  ::)
I've done a lot of recoding and tweaking, but none of this will show much of a difference in the video.  Feel free to suggest any new features or weapons, I kind of ran out of ideas as of now.  (please include on "How the feature can be done logically in terms of condition=>action," as my math is limited to algebra and trig.)

Have you played Xevious? You can use that as an example. Tough little top-down shooter, but fun, never reached a boss though.

There ARE a few games that have boss tracks, without that "Warning" logo appearing. You can try to use MM1's fortress boss theme, I think it'll work as a boss track temporarily.

... I also noticed you joined TSR. XD
