Note: I have included my single credit play so that you'll see that it's not as hard as it seems.


Oh yeah, source is now available in the zip.

Enjoy!

This is a complete game now. Post your scores and replays


BTW, someone suggested I make this into a 2 player coop game using NiFi.

Anyone know's how Nifi works?

Thanks!

Very, VERY nice.

The only complaint I have is the music. I would personally re-write the music in IT format from scratch rather than rely on Midi->IT conversions, but it's a minor issue that can easily be overlooked, so final rating: 9/10.
