Holy crap is that awesome. I should have read the readme though. It took me a while to figure out how to shoot

Tested it for few seconds on the college PC. Not really allowed to do that. Tsk...tsk. It looks very cool. The effects. And the overall design. It's something different. Will play it more at home.
Great job.

Still some points for Lithium:
- I know the game is vector-styled, but can you still make good-looking textures of it? The game looks like a wireframe model... So the advice is to fill it up a little
- Change the shooting keys from b,n,m to e.g. Control, Alt and Space. It's more userfriendlier then, I think
- Remove the bugs in 16 bit color mode. Game crashes somewhere midway the level.
- Remove the bugs in 8 bit color mode. Game doesn't do any layer-refresh anymore, resulting in objects leaving a trail of itself behind.
- Remove the bugs in the end-of-level code. Game sometimes stops (vertical scrolling stops) far before the *real* end of the level.
TheBigBasicQ: We will release a demo sometime.
Oracle, TurboFX: now we have to work better and faster to REALLY win this competition!!
The rest: if you didn't know yet, I'm also participating in the Total Destruction Project.

Lith good work, it's very original. I like the gfx, and the engine seems to be very powerfull.
To Neo, our project was supposed to be secret untill the demo launches.
Cause hyping ain't no good, especially when working on big projects.

Neo, the problems i highlighted in orange dont show up on my comp. And I agree with the ponts in blue.
