as i've said before, i'm not going to change anything right now since I truely see nothing wrong with it. Right now I'm much more aimed at making the game
better and learn from the process.

Version 0.35 is out, adding configuration file support and other
changes.
Have fun!
I played 0.3 after 0.2, and the old tactic still worked: I could just stand in the middle and circle my mouse around the ship, killing all opponents. In the beginning with single-fire one may have to move around a bit, but after double-fire (let alone triple-fire) you're invincible. Please make it *much* harder or the game is just boring. Or add different difficulty levels. Make double-fire be the maximum weapon power, or increase enemy toughness and speed accordingly.
Hmmm... making the enemies faster as you progress is an interesting idea...
I do think balancing it is the hardest part - I think I'll add parameters in
the config file to allow the player to create more enemies or make the enemies faster.
I actaully thought I made it harder this time, but guess it's still too easy.

Thanks for the comment :)

edit:
version 0.36 is out with exactly these additions and a bit more.
Hopefully this will help making the game more challenging...

Well, Appaerantly simplefile.net went down for good, so
I re-uploaded the game to megaupload.com:
Xwars 0.36
Great game! but is there option of changing cursor? because default cursor is too distracting for me :| thx! :):)
Is there an alternate download link? Megaupload seems to want to install a download toolbar on my browser when I don't want to. :)

Xwars 0.36

if anyone wants to help by hosting the game on their server let me know.
Ive found a bug sort of. If you die while shooting and goto start a new game your bullets still go across the screen when you start a new game.
