Lasers and Explosions!

I got some boring coding done which will help me support up to four players simultaneously, but it's impossible to show that kind of stuff off in a video. Instead, here are some cool new things: lasers and explosions!!!

DUUUDDEEE
This is looking REALLY EPIC >:)

Are you going to introduce WARP SPEEEEDD or anything?

[rocky1138]

Yup. My game is what I consider to be a spiritual cousin of the Dreamcast game Armada. You can fly in any X and Z direction using regular speed or use up your laser energy temporarily to use warp speed to navigate to a far-off area. Here's a video of Armada for reference:



If you watch between 7:25 and 8:00 you'll notice that as he accelerates to warp speed, the little yellow bar above his ship goes to zero. This is the shared energy between warp and weapons. I don't think he realized that you can fly at a regular speed (not warp) without using up the energy because in the whole video he uses warp, even for minor course corrections.
