What is Retro?
Retro is a fast paced, free-scrolling arcade shoot em up,
full of dangerous enemies, cool
player ships, destructive and gratuitous
weapons, foolishness, and cartoon violence. It also features a
variety of mission types, computer controlled friendly ships,
wingpersons, and a fully featured level/episode editor for
long-lasting appeal.
Retro features a stunning full 2D scrolling game environment
in screen resolutions as low as 320 x 200, 8 bit sound, MOD format
digital music, fully sprite based graphics, and a simple (read:
non-existent) storyline. Gameplay rules supreme in the world of
Retro, although some attention has been paid to graphics and other
aesthetic features. Such as 48 point rotation on most sprites,
raytraced player and enemy graphics, a snazzy intro FLI and more.
Basically, Retro is a thrust style shoot em up with all the
features you always longed for in the past -
- heaps of ships to fly
- vast selection of weapons
- variety of objectives
- friendly ships that fight with you
- big explosions and loud bangs
- amusing and obscure features
