Star Trek: Assimilation Denied

Demo projects
Play Star Trek: Assimilation Denied (fan game) on itch.io Due to scaling issues, I recommend you play the game on itch.io. Welcome to my first-ever fan game, Star Trek: Assimilation Denied. I was inspired by the GameMaker tutorial – Make Your Own Arcade Space Shooter – and I didn't like the basic theme, so I decided to add in a nondescript Federation ship as the player's ship.

The Gaunt: Broken

Demo projects

Play as The Traveller, a character forced to visit this world as a stop-gap on a greater journey. I created it as a portfolio project to showcase my writing skills. The splash screen and title screen state "Beyond Jupiter Games," a faux game studio I created for the project. You can see my full name in the credits. I created the game with several criteria in mind, namely: It must be built in GB Studio; There is only a two-colour pallet (because I'm terrible at art); The game can be completed in under 30 minutes; It includes very basic quests, controls, and battle…
