How to create a airplane shooting game (retro arcade style)

TryNTry

Can anyone please give me some major guidelines on how to make these kinds of games? It would really help me a lot since it's required for our finals this semester. The game I would like to make looks similar to this http://static.giantbomb.com/uploads/original/15/157771/2312332-a7.jpg

Ok you need

Classes

• one class Plane for your plane : This handles your own plane: input cursor and space to fire

• You have a class Enemy which can be hit (arraylist of enemies)

• You Need a class Bullets - see www.openprocessing.org , collection "explosions" on how to do that

background

For the background you need a scrolling image - you can google that here in the forum

Since it is the exam, and a simple task, I suggest you provide code here and ask specific questions

Hints

Use multiple tabs and ctrl-t, make backups often and post your code here
