Hi all,

A quick demo of a work in progress project.
I'd appreciate any input (suggestions, feedback, etc) if you get the time. Would especially like to know how smoothly (or not!) it runs on your machines.

Overview :-
Defend the planet from those pesky UFO interlopers.

Screenshots :-





Video (10Mb) :-

Demo (2Mb) :-

Keys :-
W,A,S,D and mouse = movement / look.
left mouse = fire
scroll wheel = altitude (not essential)

Gameplay :-
Shoot the UFOs to destroy them. Once destroyed another will take its place.
Use the radar (bottom right) to pinpoint the UFOs position on the planet surface.

NOTE : Initial planet loading can take a few seconds with a blank screen - please 'don't panic' (with apologies to the late great Douglas Adams).

Many thanks for taking the time.

Oh - and I should mention, as ever, the physics are ODE using VIP3Rs excellent wrapper :-
