Hello everybody! I'm 7Soul.
I found out about this game from Mike's review of the top 10 NES hidden gems. Since then I finished this game 4 or 5 times, and it inspired me in making a similar game, which you can see here or here

Story

In the year 2201 Earth's space security agency detects an anomaly in the outskirts of our galaxy. Further investigation of it's radiation revealed it to be an enormous mass of dark matter, much greater than any quantity ever found. They kept an eye on it, as they were interested in the origins of such rare anomaly.

Eight years later, they noticed the mass changing direction, and it was heading towards earth. It's approach was slow, but certainly fatal.

A fleet of space ships is sent in its direction, taking few weeks to reach it somewhere near the orbit of Pluto.
The mass revealed to be a massive ship, the size of Earth's Moon. Not much could be uncovered, as the ship immediately destroyed all of the human ships.

And the same happened to anything Earth tried to throw at them.

(story to be continued)


The Game

The base game will be a lot like the original. You go around the ship in the Exploration mode, and then enter the corridors that are in Shooter mode.

This game introduces the concept of Resources, that you gather from dead enemies. They are: Energy, Biocell, Metals and Dark Matter.

-Energy replaces the Chips from the original game. It is the currency, and what your special weapons use as ammo. It's easier to find.
-Biocell is used to buy most low-level stuff, as well as health and shield refill. Can be found mostly by killing organic enemies.
-Metals are used to power physical weapons and to buy certain chips. You find it mostly by destroying scenery and metal enemies.
-Dark Matter is used in certain high-level upgrades and chips. It's really hard to find dark matter stable enough that you can pick up. Usually drops from bosses.


Character Progression

Character

- Level: You can level up just as the original game. Each level you get more HP and increase how much of each resource you can carry.

- Chips: Chips will be something like equipments in this game. You can buy them or get them from bosses.
There will be 3 types of Chips: Movement, Weapon and System.
Movement Chips affect your movements, eg: speed, dash ability
Weapon Chips affect your basic gun, eg: multiple bullets, damage against armor, shooting speed
System Chips affect other things, eg: see invisible enemies, get more item drops

Chips will each have a size, depending on how good it is, so you can equip fewer of the best ones, and more of the common ones

- Special Weapons: There will be 10 special weapons. They are separated in 3 categories and use the respective resource to be used:
Energy weapons, which uses Energy
Physical weapons, which uses Metal
and Prototype weapons, which uses Dark Matter

The type of weapon can be strategically used to deal with different types of enemies.

Other Items

- Random drops: when you kill any enemy or bullet you might get a random drop. These include health and shield refill, or resources.
