Lylat
NOTE: MAY TAKE A FEW SECONDS TO LOAD
Lylat is a standard shoot-em-up, featuring both a "Set Mode" and an "Arcade Mode". In the "Set Mode" you fight the same hordes of enemies every run through with a definitive end point, so try for a high score by killing as many enemies as possible. In the "Arcade Mode", you fight an infinite number of enemies that spawn randomly. Either try to survive for as long as possible, or try to get a high score before you die. In both modes, you gain points by killing enemies but lose some points when an enemy escape alive.
VERSION 1.1: Two new game modes have been added, "Boss Rush" and "Endless Rush". On the main menu, press either A or D to swap to those options. In "Boss Rush" you fight the three bosses from V1.0 in order as well as a special variant of one of those boss fights. If you survive all four fights, you win. "Endless Rush" is similar, except you play those four fights infinitely. Try to survive as long as possible or clear as many fights as possible.
Lylat is based on my GMTK Game Jam entry Talyl, which was a "reverse shoot-em-up". This features the same six unit types as Talyl, however the gameplay has been slowed down slightly to make the game more enjoyable, and there are three new boss enemies to fight. Lylat is also a semi-remake of an old scratch project with the same name.

KNOWN BUGS:
- The audio sometimes freezes or acts in unintended ways, particularly during boss fights. This is caused by the implementation of the web version (using PygBag), and so will not be fixed.
