Guardian Angel - From the 90´s with love
A downloadable game for Windows
"Guardian Angel - From the 90´s with love" is still in development.
Free 1-Level-Demo available!
This game is designed for players who grew up with the commodore amiga.
It´s a one man project and i did my best to capture the feelings i had when i first started games like Turrican, Apidya, Project X or Agony back in the early 90´s.
It´s an oroginal game, no remake or port. There is no autopilot in this game, no handholding, its challeging and unforgiving in the later stages.

Guardian Angel is a 2D, Arcade, Retro, Shoot 'Em Up, Side Scroller game. It has 1 level at demo stage. I love it. It has a unique style, if only enemies are different creatures, birds are innocent enough I think.
* Pros: Cool main menu, Guiding instructions, Awesome theme music.
* Cons: Character movements could be a little bit smoother.
* Additions: Enemies could come and attack backwards.
Thanks to the EverDream, keep going!
Challenging and a bit weird, but that's how I like my classic shooters! Overall a very well made game and I appreciate the easy download-and-launch "installation". I guess the part that especially makes the difficulty is the fact that you are so much taller than the reach of your shots (with the normal weapon). But I like this game a lot and I'd really want to see it in our this year's Game Development World Championship, too!
Thank you very much for your Feedback.
The shot-sprites are placeholders for now, I think its no problem to make them bigger.
If the game is ready in time, ill be happy to participate:)
Alright, good luck then!
I just added my game to this years GDWC, i hope you like it :)
Thank you for trying out my game! It was fun to watch the video :)
Use the Flamethrower against large groups of enemies :)
Seems like some hitboxes are to precise, i will fix that in the next update.
The final game will also have 1 difficulty level for people who are not so familiar with this type of game.
