Defendguinx 1.0
« on: August 24, 2011, 10:53:00 PM »

(IMG:http://www.emuxtras.net/forum/images/Previews/defendguinX.png)

This my port of the game Defendguin to the Xbox.

Defendguin is a clone of the arcade game "Defender,"
but with a Linux theme. Your mission is to defend little
penguinoids from being captured and mutated.

With the Xbox being a hacked Microsoft product,
I'm shocked no one ported this sooner, as Mr. Gates
is the final boss  (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

I wanted this to be a little more than a port, so
I added (what I think to be) improvements. I hope
you all enjoy it!

QUOTE


- Added a ship select screen. You can now pick
  the red or the blue ship as player 1. Also
  added 3 extra ships that did not appear in the
  original game.

  * Viper MK1 Ship unlocks after beating level 11
  * Garbage truck fighter unlocks after beating the game.
  * Secret ship unlocks only if the correct code is entered
    on the main screen.

  *ALL extra ships feature Linus Torvalds dancing at the end
   when you beat the game, just like the original ships.

  *Also created unique dancing Linus Torvalds for the red ship,
   originally this shared the same sprites as the blue ship.  

- Added the same ship select screen for the 2 player game.
  Player 1 and 2 both choose their own ship. Both players
  can be the blue ship if they want, or red, or any
  of the other ships (if they are unlocked)

- Added screen resize, accessed through the options menu.

- Added graphical options menu. The original
  was all text based using a super small font
  the Xbox did not handle this well if you
  re-sized the screen.

- Replaced the high-score font with TTF font on the
  main menu. This displays a lot better than the original.

- Game auto-saves all data to the Xbox's HDD in the game-saves
  folder. That means you can burn this to a disk and play it
  if you wanted to. Also you can unlock all the ships and
  transfer your game-save to another Xbox.

- Disabled P1 and P2 high-score display on main menu.
  This was causing some slowdown with the stars and random
  crashing. Might look into fixing it at a later time.



I've asked Madmab if he could put it on Xbins for me, but in the meantime you can download it HERE.
