Old Projects

About

These are some older projects I've done 10 to almost 20 years ago.

Space Invaders

   A DirectX 7 Space Invaders like game I did quite a while back. The only working copy I found kept giving me an unsupported video feature error. At startup, before the error, the player's ship is blinking. For the life of me I couldn't get a screen shot while the blink was showing. There were 7 levels with 7 backgrounds introducing more ships each level. Every third level had a large multi weapon boss ship. It had some ok sound effects using Direct Sound.
