Horizontal Scrolly Shooter Contest Finished
Over at Shmup-Dev you’ll find the results of the recently finished Horizontal Scroller with Boss competition!
The winning entry is this R-Type clone:
(more or less as you’d expect given the theme of the competition!). I notice there’s an entry from Dr. Petter there at number 9 (Dr. Petter of GridWars fame). I’m busy wrangling with an RMI-HTTP-CGI tunneling wotsit at the moment and I haven’t got time to play ‘em. Perhaps you could, and post a comment or two on them.
Not sure what DrPetter and GridWars have in common… different people, different continents as far as I know. The only thing they might have in common is a love for hockey and shmups
DrPetter recently released an interesting experiment, POC06 that I quite like:

Ah quite right, not sure how I managed to get confused about that. Some sort of crazy mixture between YakYak and Shmup-Dev postings.
