Hi all,

It's not Db, or Db-related but I was inspired by FOG and his graphics on DUO... My cave flyer entry to a 3 week allegro contest @ the brazilian game programming portal www.unidev.com.br

+ 100% runtime sketched graphics =]
+ Music by Shoutcast online radios (with my very special beatle button )
+ Installer under 2Mb
+ Level Editor Included


Video preview (So that one may comment w/o downloading the real thing):

Thanks guys =] ... too bad there wasn't enough time for me to create more campaigns and enemies (at least not for the contest) but I'll keep on updating it maybe adding some allied sketched forces

Oh yeah... forgot to mention that it's also Open Source(unfortunately the source is a mess ):

Very good
The only improvement I would consdier is bigger ships, or at least make it easier to see which way they are pointing.

Thanks BatVink:
Yeah the ship's direction became kind of cloudy ...
For a ship twice as big overwrite the file located in wiredatashipscapsule with the one attached (but again 2x is too big)
i'll have to leave it to a future version

EDIT: Let me ask you guys something Did the Radio work for everyone? I'm terrible with multi-threading!

On the subject of online radio (streaming media) being used as soundtrack,what do you guys think of this? I don't really know if this was already used before...
