Download Stormrunner rev2 here. EDIT: Download latest version here. I really need some suggestions on changing the difficulty.. it's very, very hard now that I've added in a few minor things. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to defend the Stormrunner, the flagship of the -Ites. You may select from one of nine fighters to accomplish this task, each differing in their handling, shields, hull, and weaponry. But if you OR the Stormrunner die.. you''ll have to try again. ----------------------------------------------------------------- The controls are mostly the same as before, but I''ll go over them again :) Added T-Wing, R-41, and modified missiles to have an explosion radius, as well as having enemy fighters seek you or the Stormrunner, plus the obvious changes to the menus (pretty, eh?). Also, the ''alternategraphics'' folder contains ships with a Purple instead of Red indicator. I did this because one of my testers is a bit red-green colorblind, and he said the purple works fine. Up to you :) Controls are as follows: CTRL - Fires Laser Cannons SHIFT - Fires Ion cannons if applicable * END - Changes Cannon link mode notesingle/double/quad for Xwing, for other ships it is simply single/double or single/triple) TAB or DELETE - Fires Missile weapons (if you have it) ARROW KEYS - movement up/down/left/right ESC - From Main Menu, exits. From Game Over or Pause, returns to game (new if game over), from anywhere else, it returns to Main Menu. *note on ion cannons: They are only effective against shields. They do 1.5x damage at the same fire rate that lasers would do to shielded ships, thus the reason the more bomber-like ships have them. However, they do 0 damage to hulls. OPTIONS - Here is where you select your ship and you can turn sound on/off if you want. Simply move your cursor over the ship you want, but if you click it will return to the main menu with whatever ship is not blacked out. However, you must use click to turn sound on/off, and in this regard it will not exit to Main Menu. Ship descriptions can now be found in the Options menu, where you choose your ship. *note: The A-Wing has a jamming device, which has a chance to prevent an enemy from firing briefly. POWERUPS (these are used instantly when picked up): Red M: Full missiles Red S: Full shields Red H: Full hull Red F: Freezes enemy''s time Blue S: Full Stormrunner shield Blue H: Full Stormrunner hull Blue F: Fires Stormrunner''s 6 turbolasers Red P: Fires several additional shots next time you pull the trigger. Your enemies will be as follows: TIE Fighter - 2 cannons, 50 hull, 20 spd TIE Interceptor - 4 cannons, 100 hull, 22 spd TIE Bomber - 2 cannons, Torpedos, 150 hull, 15 spd TIE Avenger - 4 cannons, Concussion Missiles, 50 shield, 100 hull, 24 spd Assault Gunboat - 2 cannons, 2 ions, Concussion Missiles, 150 shield, 150 hull, 18 spd TIE Defender - 4 cannons, 2 ions, Adv. Concussion Missiles, 100 Shield, 100 hull, 26 spd Bosses: Corellian Corvette: 6 cannons, 750 shield, 600 hull, 15 spd Nebulon B Frigate: 8 cannons, 1500 shield, 1200 hull, 10 spd Imperial Star Destroyer: 10 cannons, 10 ions, 2500 shield, 2000 hull, 5 spd --- Note on new gameplay: If you beat the first ISD, the game basically repeats - except it has the # of fighters as before, so theoretically if you get to the third ISD, you will be fighting 12 enemy ships at a time. Now that''s TOUGH! Names of various ships/weaponry is (most likely) copyrighted by LucasArts Entertainment Corp. Please let me know what you think. It's pretty hard right now, and I'd like suggestions on making it easier... so I hear, that's the hard part! -Greven [Edited by - Evil_Greven on July 21, 2004 3:34:24 PM]
