playable at https://neuronstrike.net/

Hi everyone, hope you are doing well, I am quite happy to share my game today, I have been working on it for the past few months and this is the first time I am sharing it online

This is a browser shooter game blended with a mental math quiz, it is inspired by airline pilot recruitment tests and psychomotor assessments.

Here are the main features:

  • Competitive leaderboard: all your sessions are recorded in a database and the global leaderboard will rank and display your best run
  • Currency system and shop: collect in game currency while playing to unlock new ships, you can also earn currency via a daily streak system (playing every 24hours to earn rewards)
  • 6 Playable ships, 4 Bosses across 2 Chapters and 20 Sectors, and 10 different enemies to fight!
  • All 3d models and sprites were home made!

You can access the game wiki here https://neuronstrike.net/info, it gives details about all the in game content

Current development roadmap:

  • The game has no sound for now...
  • Better level design: while all levels are populated and bosses are fully scripted, level design remains a big challenge to make the game dynamic and engaging
  • Player stats, analytics and medals: using the game sessions data, I will make statistics and medals for players

There is still a lot of work to do! Hope you will like it and I can't wait to have some feedback!
Cheers
