Hi friends,

As a side project, I made a 2 players browser game, I thought I would share. It's a mix of Battleship and Missile Command. Can I share the link so you can tell me what you think?

I like arcade games. Why don't you share the link?

Don't know. Thought it would be polite to ask permission first...
Ok let's go! You'd need a 2nd player though.

I didnt see any ships,  but the explosion looks really cool

Whats BMC stand for,  battleship missile command?

I managed to work youve got automatic missiles,   like it,  plays like a dream nice and smooth, you should finish it.   then turn it into an MMO.

That's because you were the only player connected. It's 2 players only so unless someone else plays too, you don't see any opponent!

I think it needs sound.

edit:

phew, was that you Magnus?
it was hot!!! this thing has a future

A nice touch of different torpedo and missle intercepting ammo. Visuals are also awesome, I like the graphics very much.

edit:
I won three out of five! Is there a high score? And may I suggest some more contrast, things get fuzzy when the whole screen is on fire. But I wouldn't like to ruin the visual art beauty.

ha! so it was you!! I was Aze. Well done, you beat me

No, no hiscore for now, but I could make an Elo ranking system for example.

Wasn't the pace too fast?

edit: yeah, you mean darker when there's no explosion, or darker also when there are explosions?

It wasn't easy, but I finally got you!

Wasn't the pace too fast?

I think not. Maybe it takes too long before a missle hits the opponent sea, but I don't know if I would change it. It would pace up the game, and somehow I think you got the right pace right now. One turn is not too long, and not too short by my opinion.

And I also like the game minimalism. Ratio between game simplicity and amount of thrill is almost amazing.

yeah, you mean darker when there's no explosion, or darker also when there are explosions?

Things look perfect when there are no explosions. But a vast of explosions also contribute the battlefield glow, regardless of screen litting. Ships are on fire!!!! Swim for your life!!! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!

Thanks a lot
