Yeah, I know I'm all squity-eyed, but the flash was behind my laptop and packed a mighty oomf.

----UPDATE-----
Finsihed Level 1. :D
I have finished off all the things you can buy in the shop.
I am now working on the levels and enemies.
The game is graphic intensive, it has a LOT of movie clips on the stage at any time, and because of that, it dramaticly slows down the framerate, so i recommend LOW quality, it automaticly sets the quality to low at the start.
This post is really to ask people who will give me the most money for my game.
----/UPDATE----

My upcomming game will feature :

-11 different ships
-18 different front weapons
-11 different rear weapons
-9 different shields
-6 different Generators
-16 different sideships
- Many Secrets
- Save/Load functions
- Worldwide highscore table
-40 fps

As you can see, this is a big project, it had already taken me about two months off/on work to get to where i am. Lately i have been working on ways to shirnk my script to shorten the length of time to make it. I created a way to reduce my 40,000 line script down to 4,000. That saves a lot of work. This is a remake of the 1995 arcade shoot'em up game, Tyrian and i have used the original graphics from it. I'm also looking to sponser it when it is finished, and because it has taken me a long time compared to my other productions, im going to try and get top dollar for it. Can anyone please suggest what company will give me the most for it?

Thanks,
