Greetings all!
Well, we managed to pull off another decent game in the collaboration. Although there are some things we didn't get to because of the 8 hour time frame, the project is playable and represents a great base for adding stuff in the future. Participants in this collab included RBWhitaker, Brett208, and PiscesMike.

The video below has some free youtube music since I still haven't figured out how to capture audio with my video recording software, but the game itself includes 12 background music tracks courtesy of Incompetech which are selected from randomly, and some laser shooting sound effects.
