Nuclear Defense

I finally figured out the bugs, glitches, and little problems that made me tilt my head and go "bwuh?"

So, without further ado, Nuke Defense!
Simply download, extract, and double click the .jar file; (it's the equivalent of a .exe file) you need the latest version of Java installed to run it, but most machines have it stock anyway.

It's a very basic game, a recreation of an arcade game from the 80's actually. After you select newgame, the next menu asks what guns you want the computer to control; in hindsight i should have made it what guns you control; but...

When you get into the game simply point, and click. a missile will fire towards the spot you click on, destroy the nukes with missiles and save the cities.

Highscores dont work yet, but i was having some problems sorting through the various input/output functions of Java, so they'll be in soon.

Let me know what you think, first "release" so, let me know anything that'll make it nicer to play / any oddities that should be fixed.

lol hog, i KNEW you'd say something like that. :P

Yeah, in the end i decided sound was even harder to make than artwork (which is bad enough), so i ditched it; i'll probably put something in later.

thanks for the compliments :)

yeah but dallas sucks. btw lz2the kid, if you're looking for a big explosion sound for the game, find any .wav file from the dallas cowgirls locker room yestarday and play it backwards. ie. from an implosion sound to an explosion sound.
