Hyper Space Destroyer is a vertically scrolling shooter. It resembles games like Galaga and Ikaruga but to a simpler degree.
-Game Play-
On my first playthrough, I won the game. It is fairly simple to win if you continually fire your gun. There are also plenty of enemies to shoot and powerups to obtain. I found it fairly simple to power up my guns and blast trough the enemy waves. This was basically the same for my second playthrough. It is fairly simple to win the game, but the fun lies in the strange enemies and bosses you fight.
-Controls-
You control the movement of your ship with the directional keys on the keyboard and fire your guns with spacebar. There is also a special missile weapon, but I never had a need to use it. The ship is responsive, and the controls are very intuative.
-Enemies-
The first stage enemies consist of "petris" blocks and the boss Dr. Petris. The petris blocks simply fly down the screen at your ship. Dr. Petris basically moves around and shoots petris blocks at you.
The second stage enemies were small ships and the moonians. The small ships behaved like the petris blocks. The moonians flew around in their ship and would fire a giant block at you that moved very slowly.
The new enemies for the final stage were tie fighters and the dead star. The tie fighters could lock onto your ship. The dead star basically flew around and shot at you while more tie fighters attacked.
-Conclusions-
This game was fairly simple, but there was a three week time limit. This serioulsy limited the options for game designs. Even with this restriction, I believe that the game turned out well. If for no other reason, it was fun to play just because of the funny parody enemies that attacked your ship in the each level.
