Archive: Spacial Warfare

You're viewing a project from 2011. I was 14 years old at the time. This is archived here for posterity.

Spacial Warfare was built during 2011 for the Neo Retro Coding Competition of 2011. I built it on my little Eee PC 2G Surf while on a 10 hour road trip. I remember desperately trying to upload the project to the competition site on free public wifi as the deadline ticked closer by the second. In the end I got it uploaded. I believe I placed 10th or 11th out of 10 or 11 entries (lol), but it was still enough to make $100. It was extremely exciting for me at the time. $100 was a lot of money for a kid in junior high school.

I immediately bought a programmable GameBoy Advanced Cartridge with the winnings and began learning how to do GameBoy development - ironically also starting off with a Galaga clone.

Credits

These people might not care if I give them credit, since this is 10 years ago and we have all progressed significantly in life, but I feel obligated to do so anyways:

• Special credit to my friend at the time, MHX Air for making the intro screen.
