Ugliest game ever?

Okay, I didn't think I was going to make any more shmups for a while, but it's hard to break free.

Burn the Trash!

The game's supposed to look like a trashy fever nightmare. Look out for the motion blur from hell.

Here's a gameplay video, watch it to see how to play:

Here's the gameplay instructions:

Z: Fire beam against enemies

X: Fire beam against bullets

Z + X: Fire strong beam against enemies (depletes time)

F1: Toggle motion blur

F2: Launch highscore table

F3: Toggle random mode

Don't fire too long, you'll overheat and explode! Don't let the time run out or you die. Killing enemies adds more time to the counter.

The game needs to be extracted before playing. There is an online highscore table too, so don't worry if it freezes up for a few secs, it's just sending your scores.

Any comments or suggestions before I release this?

Game finished.

I pretty much second Kaz's comment. But I'm not much of an arcade games fan so..

Snazzy. But really, it's time to broaden your currently vertical horizon.

Is that ray gun in your banner named Ronald by any chance?

you forgot about 'c' in the gameplay instructions… what's the point of that ship, anyway.. it sucks.

add a health system (1 bullet=-100 health 1 enemy=+1 health 1 wave=+5 health 1 boss=+10 health) to add to replay value.
