Retrobooster
Really Slick | TBD
When evil aliens invade the galaxy, it is up to you and your fleet of decommissioned starfighters to drive them back. Pilot your humble thrust ship through tense battles and tight spaces. Hone your piloting skills, rescue survivors, blow up gobs of baddies, witness the horrors that lurk in the darkest corners of the galaxy, and make it out alive.
Retrobooster is a 2.5D survival shooter and cave-flyer, focusing on skill-based flying and enemy blasting. It combines old school gameplay with contemporary graphics and audio. Retrobooster also has speed-flying challenges, various weapons, puzzles, juicy monsters, a warped sense of humor, and a healthy dose of bullet hell action. Survive to the end if you can, and use your new flying skills to replay for high scores.
You can vote for Retrobooster on Steam Greenlight.

This first video was made at the IGN office in San Francisco. It was Indie Press Day that evening, and IGN had the developers from that event over to make demo videos of their games.
Next, Snowy made a gameplay video of Retrobooster on his YouTube channel. He has a good time playing and says "It's an awesome game."
Last, but not least, VG247 posted a video this morning using footage they took at Indie Press Day and commentary from me, the developer.

This looks and plays A++. Read the stuff on your website and good for you not using Unity or UE3 to make your game (although you started in 2007, so not sure what was around at the time). Too many half-a** games coming out that the great ones are getting lost in the crowd.
I personally am looking forward to your game and can't wait for you to start taking orders. If people take just a few minutes to look at your game I think they will see the hard work and quality you put into your game. The problem is getting them to stop long enough to really look at it and not dismiss it as just another . . .
I hope your game does really well. We need more high quality games like this. You are truly an indie developer!
Just had to say - The effects in your game are amazing. The explosions and the smoke swirling. Love the little guys you have to save and the way the landing gear deploys and seems to have a little suspension. Fantastic work.
Hi. Thanks for the great comment. That's very encouraging. I vaguely remember looking at Ogre and a couple other engines when I started but didn't see a big advantage over the tools I'm using. Things might be different now, but I'd need a *really* compelling reason to switch at this stage.
It's great that you noticed the particle swirling and tiny details. I'm aware this game is difficult at first for a lot of people, which is why I've spent so much time on details. I'm hoping those will keep people engaged long enough to start enjoying the way the ship handles and other aspects of the game.
This game is piles of fun so far, looking forward to it!
Hey, thanks. I'm still working hard on it....
