Change log in T.O.W. v2.0:

*Killed a mean bug that was making the game freeze right after the intro
*Fixed the load(you were able to load to level 1 even when slot was empty)
*Deleted some unecessary images(now file is smaller)
*Added a couple more of screen directions to pause and save/load menus)
*and some other small stuff...

Not a big update but an important one...now game plays flawlessly(i think)

for those whoe missed the first version this is what's in the game:

*Diagonal Scrolling (we though it'd be different homebrew wise)
*Story (interesting in our opinion)
*14 Levels (meaning 14 different backgrounds)
*1 Recovery Level (where you have a chance to go back to the game if all lives were lost)
*19 different types of enemies( maybe more coming)
*Highscore/reset Highscores
*Save/load/delete files (invented a new code for that, i think)
*Extra lives every 25000 points
*Extra special(bomb) every 15000 points
*Final grade from "F" to "A+++" (total of 15)
*Take a screenshot of highscore screen, gameplay(any level) and final results screen(total kills, final score, final grade and more)

Are there really levels, or just different backgrounds and random drops of enemies at different amounts and/or speed? It looks monotonous after 10 seconds of gameplay.

if you think about it, a level is everything you just said!!! I would give it a try, cause many games arent at all what they seem or sound to be, and to me the game is challenging !!! Thanks.
and Buddy4point0 i'm really glad you liked it!!! Thank you!!!

i found a bug. when you try to look at the controls and press back, the game freezes and you have to restart.
