Cavern Crusader

I created this game to enter the A+ Programming Contest they had during their first year. The game is a side-scrolling shooter where you just shoot down the aliens coming at you - and there's a lot of em. Mow them all down and get to the next cave full of em. It's infitnite fun!

There was a grand prize given for the best submission overall and the grand prize winner was a spreadsheet program called Invisicalc. :(

This is the cover of the A+ magazine that Cavern Crusader was in.
The table of contents that listed me as the WINNAR! ^_____^
Here's the short article that talks about the game.
The legendary title screen. Of legend.
A hot-n-heavy in-game screenshot! Just look at the implied action! The game actually ran at a slow framerate on purpose to make it so you could actually live for a while.

My prose, wasted on instructions!
Page 2 of masterful prose. The prose of a high-school kid.
I was a senior in high-school, writing masterful prose! I like making up words like hyperwarp and lasertorp.
The school newspaper reported my win - someone heard about it and thought it would be a great FRONT PAGE STORY! The promises of college and the $10,000 scholarship for RBASIC were dashed to the floor in ruins in the following months. Dashed!
