Information

Description :
First of all, Earth Invaders is a Shoot em Up game.
Nothing exceptionel in the game's "conecpt" or graphics (even if combo made a good job ), everything's in the gameplay.
In fact, for me, the most important thing for a DS game, with all the possibilitys that DS offers, it's not the graphics or anything else, it's the gameplay and his orignality.
That's why my Earth Invaders game - even if it's a "simple" Shoot Them Up game - uses all the DS's capacitys.
Yes, that's right, it uses the double screen, the stylus, the microphone and all the buttons.(it even uses sound and 3D for the intro cinematic !)

/!\ All my game is original, i have not stoled any concepts or graphics to other games or so.

Before playing my game, make sure you have read the "How to play, it is VERY important to know what all the buttons the stylus and the microphone are for.

Well anyway, here's how to play(you can find this in my readme file) :

________________________
| How To Play :

General :
- Press "Right button" or "A" : Go to the right
- Press "Lefy button" or "Y" : Go to the left
- Touch the screen : Shoot
- "R" or "L" : Bullet time (not limited in Blaster Survival mode)
- Blow on the Microphone : give more altitude to the shield

Special "Blaster Mode" keys :
- "Up" or "X" : Pass in powerful shot mode
- "Down" or "B" : Pass in normal shot mode

Then, the game modes :

________________________
| Different Modes :

"Normal Mode" :
Like the name indicates this is a normal mode, see ennemis shoot at them and win. It's a little bit like a training for Survival modes.

"Survival Mode" :
Like the name indicates it, this is a mode where you have to survive : your spaceship is quite weak but you still have to face to bad guys !
!NOTE! : This mode has an ininite automatic level generation, so your goal is to do good scores and to beat them after !
!NOTE! : Your scores are saved on GBA cartridge

"Blaster Survival Mode" :
This is almost exactly the same than Survival Mode....except, ennemis are much more powerful....and you too !
In this mode you have to explode ennemi ships by using your maximum power !
In this mode you get :
- Infinite Bullet Time !
- Infinite power shoot ! (choose it with up or x button)
!NOTE! : This mode has an ininite automatic level generation, so your goal is to do good scores and to beat them after !
!NOTE! : Your scores are saved on GBA cartridge

And few other things :
