About This Game

The Rush is a horizontal shoot 'em up with an MSX inspired art style and plenty of that arcade excitement (without a hunger for quarters)!

Features:

8 Unique stages
Many enemies and boss fights that (I severely hope) are fun and challenging
11 different weapons that can be mixed and matched with one another
2 Playable ships with different weapon variations
Some surprising exploits I decided not to fix because they help you out
An easter egg or two...
An OST that was a collaborative effort between yours truly and my good friend BuckChickens
Controller Support from start to finish!

Controls:

Default keyboard controls are WSAD for movement, L to shoot, K to bomb
Alternate keyboard controls (which can be enabled in the options menu) use Arrow Keys for movement, Z to shoot, X to bomb
For either keyboard control method, enter is start/pause/confirm
On controller "A" is shoot and "B" is bomb, with "Start" acting as start/pause/confirm
Holding alt and pressing enter will enable/disable true fullscreen mode

Thank you for checking out The Rush! Do not hesitate to voice your opinions regarding anything in game.
