The Highscore
A downloadable game for Windows
What is this game?
The Highscore is a Shoot ‘em up in which you have to survive by defeating waves of enemies, accumulate points and reach the highest score possible. But to do so, you can only count on five lives, various powers and your own skill.
Could we know more about the gameplay?
You control a spaceship firing various types of lasers, depending on your progress in the game. You basically gain more firepower as you kill bosses. Additionally, you will be able to collect special powers to deal more damage or protect yourself from the constant waves of enemies.
Is there any scenario or plot?
No, The Highscore is a pure arcade game developed around the "Die and Retry" concept. You shoot, you survive and you go as far as you can. When your life drops to zero, the game ends and your score is saved if your total number of points collected during the game exceeds your previous highscore. Of course, you can start over from the beginning whenever you want.
Who can play this game?
The Highscore is a PC game only, for the moment. It requires few resources so it can run on most computers. The game is available in English, French, Chinese and Spanish.
Who worked on this game?
From the code to the visual effects, the game has been entirely made by one person. However, the music has been made by PeriTune: peritune.com
