I will continue to flesh out this demo so there will be a good experience here on itch.io...but the full game is initially designed for mobile platforms.
This version will always be free to play in browser on itch.io.
LIGHT SENSITIVITY NOTICE:
Sensitive to bright lights? There may be a couple of big explosions that may bother you...please let me know if you experience any discomfort.
THINGS TO KNOW:
This is a test ALPHA DEMO build of F.M.UP: Final Mutation Upper Limits.
This is the first game in a hopeful F.M.UP series / universe.
Not a lot of variety of enemies in this build -- yet. Objective was to get all the main mechanics working.
Boss enemies are fairly easy to kill.
This is a space shooter game with interesting power-up mechanics rarely seen in this genre.
This game was built using the DEFOLD game engine in about 3 months for this current version. I am new to using DEFOLD -- beginner.
Any tips for game development with DEFOLD are welcomed.
Updates and refinements are forthcoming.
The primary platform for this design is for mobile use. Google Play store will be first. Maybe will do a console version later -- the programming is set up in DEFOLD GAME ENGINE to be able to do that.
UPDATE 03/21/23: Will definitely do console ports~!
Take a look at the credits / thanks : Run the game. Click on Options. Click on Credits link towards the center bottom.
CONTROLS:
Use your mouse to move the ships around. No need to worry about firing - that happens automatically. Left click to enter initials. in the basic leaderboard.
You can play on your mobile device as well. Use your finger to move the ship around.
Be sure to enlarge to full screen on mobile devices.
LEVELS - There are currently 10 of them:
Level 1: There are some power ups in the bottom 3rd of the screen -- grab what you can. Kill the enemies.
Level 2: This is a test of a quickly animated background. Kill the enemies.
Level 3: This is a boss escape test. You have 60 seconds to kill the boss before the boss will retreat
Level 4 - Level 10: Different backgrounds. Kill the enemies. Same bosses you have encountered already
MUSIC:
Levels 1- 5: These all have predefined music loops. Levels 6-10: The music is selected at random - any tracks you hear in a row is based on the random selection. :)
ADS:
Currently there no ads...that will change.
LEADERBOARD:
You are able to enter you initials into the Leaderboard either after you completely die or after you beat Level 10. Use the left and right arrow keys to cycle through the letter. Use the plus key to add your initials to the board.

I quite enjoyed it.
Could use keyboard controls, playing with a trackpad was definitely not ideal haha.
As Zephye777 already mentioned, the game is very easy - levels were short and bullet patterns easy to dodge.
It was still fun, especially discovering all the different power-ups and summons!
@rzuf
Thank you for chiming in~!
Currently, I am working on:
5 more bosses
5 mini bosses
20 more base enemies
5 more tracks for boss fights
A standard shmup bomb
....and will test adding controller and keyboard support~!
My objective is to have this as a nice free version with 20-30 min of full experience gameplay.
Hopefully to have a new version up by USA Day of 6/22/24.
Stay tuned~!
Thank you once again for you feedback~!
UPDATE: 06/30/24 -- Still working on updates :)
Tried demo out it's fun the gameplay isn't the best but the bossfight's are all cool and are only being held back by their limited move set.
Games really being ruined by the helpers and the lazer beam making it way to easy to win. Great idea, just needs tuning.
Thanks for your feedback, Zephye777~!
Yes...many things to tweek as this an alpha (super easy) demo and I am learning all the basics for my first game. I currently have everything unlocked and will up the difficulty and length of the levels as my learning progresses.
