Gameplay
Rizing is a dual stick shooter : that means that you’ve two virtual joysticks available that you can use to simultaneously move and fire in two different directions. Using the fine art of dodging bullets while shooting is vital if you wish to get the top scores!
Enemies & Bosses
Using something we can call ‘controlled chaos’ the game will pick at random from a list of suitable enemies level after level and generate at runtime waves, pauses and hectic moments.
Similarly, bosses are built around several different parts that are combined at every level to build the final enemy. The more you progress the more parts will be assembled, making the boss bigger and meaner.
You can find Rizing on the Marketplace if you want to check it out and to get more info, visit the Facebook page.
