Very polished! Just played it once. Hit "B" again, fired a few shots and this happened :-

I could still move the cross-hairs and fire shots but they weren't registered as hits on the meteors. Both the star field and the meteors were still moving.
hmm. Do you mean you pressed B to play again and it jumped straight back to level 2 and remembered your score?
What the screenshot is showing, is the first boss and his force field over the rocks. You cannot shoot the rocks at this point, you have to kill the boss. This will then drop the his force field over the rocks and you can shoot them again.
If you pressed B though and the game started fresh from Level 2 then that's a bug

Thanks for the explanation. It looked like it had crashed but I haven't played any WIPs for quite a while. Perhaps a different visual cue might emphasise the boss more? E.g. dim the cursors and cross hair when you are over a meteor and a "gun failed" noise if you hit fire.
Yeah not bad thoughts, if I do a point release to fix anything then I might think about doing something like that.
Don't want to make it too easy for people though (imagine you are back in the 90's) Play around and see what works

Watching RAPTOR being used out there by other people completing projects - fuzzy warm feeling.
Roll on into 2016!

I agree - in a manual, in a box, with an official release... are you listening, Sporadic? :0)
Never say never

Never say never
A CD release wouldn't hurt either.
A question: is it possible to beat the game, or is it an endless game/points?

It is currently endless although I doubt anyone would get to around level 30 as things get progressively harder.
It is more to do with getting the best score you can

Stupid question, any chance this will make it to a dedicated cart? I have the flash-cart, but would like to buy a dedicated cart.

Thanks for the interest! It's not a stupid question
I really don't know yet. I would love to release a cart but it's much more involved and expensive than a CD release. So if anything, it would more likely be on CD.
All i can say is I haven't decided on anything yet!
