Players will have the ability to choose their ships' color before starting the game (defaults to black/white for P1 and red/green for P2). The shear number of enemies and projectiles won't be the only thing on the screen that you have to worry about. ;-)
Bump. I uploaded a Flash video of the basic gameplay mechanic showing the Weapon Link System (click here). Sadly, this project was sidetracked and neglected for a long time.
