Godot Defender Clone (WIP)

A (kind of) clone of the 80's arcade game Defender, a 2D sidescrolling shooter. Made with Godot.

This is WIP and all the visuals are placeholders (based on the graphics in the C64 manual of Defender) that I'll eventually replace by proper pixel sprites. Also I won't make a perfect clone of Defender, I am just using the game as an example project to learn Godot. Also this is actually my first Godot project and so far I am having a pretty good time while learning the engine.

Controls

• Cursor left/right/up/down or WASD: Fly into direction.
• Space: Fire laser.

Latest update

Milestone 6: Spawn waves, player lives, extra lives, proper gameplay loop, improved level wrap-around mechanic.
