[Wii] NewoFox

[owen]

Newo Fox is a simple on rails shooter arcade game in the style of snes starfox. The game is a combination code from 3 of my previous homebrew games; Newo Shooter, Newo Escape and Newo Sky. Released in Apr 2018. There is room to do lots more but there is never enough time in the day and I had already been working on it for too long. I code everything in C on a old windows XP computer. In total it took about 7 years of tinkering to reach to this point. Funny I never knew that it would take such a round about course but heh I hope someone enjoys it.

As far as actual development goes I try to code everything myself which limits what I can quickly achieve but frees me from being tied to a single thought process. I just start something and tinker with it until I find a solution that runs a 60fps.

Mostly arrays, I was never a fan of object soup which probably explains why I still codd in C. If you are a fan of in progress screenshots I have a bunch on my devlog; blog link

Its probably overkill but grrlib lets me take screenshots as I code/test so I figured I might as well upload them. I wish I could do animated gifs or video.
