Here's a bare-bones shooter game example that I *think* is easy to learn from and to expand on. It's pretty simple. Shoot the balls, don't let any pass you or touch you. Move the piece at the bottom LEFT/RIGHT using the arrow keys, SPACE shoots. ESC quits. If a ball hits you or you let one pass the game is over.
Nothing much of a game, but it was a lazy Saturday and I just wanted to code something. Maybe some can make use of it. It would be easy to expand this little shooter.

My avatar is probably better off without shooting himself in the balls again. He had a friend who played your game. Ever here of Deadwood Dick?
I managed a 67 on 5th game while Sam was out partying.

Hmm, I’ve never heard of that comic book before, and I was a serious comic book collector as a kid. Will have to look it up.
67 ain’t too shabby.

A cancelled gig gave me time to play with this game today. Made it more like a real game, almost a little fun. Main changes are:
Added Sound effects using PLAY statements
Added health point count (5). Out of health points, game over.
(missing a ball or hitting one cost you a health point)
Some balls fall faster than others, more challenging.
Added moving shield that protects balls from your shots.
Added simple ground background for player to move on
Added simple game over message when health out.
See how many balls you can shoot down before running out of health.

Hey, thanks guys! I couldn't stop messing with this tonight, had fun adding things. New version:
Added 2nd shield, made them both random sizes.
A green health pill drops from time to time, giving you +1 health point
A yellow super pill drops sometimes making you invincible for 15 seconds
Game restarts when over. Hi score now kept. Few more tweaks.

Wild stuff! I forgot to tell you that this game is VERY hard... I can only play for like 5 seconds until the game is over. It's because too many balls come down at once and it's impossible to get them all. It might help if you added mouse support to your shooter. That way you can shoot more of them. I really hope you make this easier because it's really fun.

Yeah, it's kinda hard for me too, @SierraKen. Not very hard for Terry though it looks like, lol. I've given us some more help in this version. Starts easier, but gets harder. You can play longer now. New for v4:
Increased health points max to 7
Increased number of active shots you can have.
Increased health status display (easier to notice)
Balls don't reappear so quickly at first, but as time moves on they will.
Shields move across with a wobble now, are in the way longer.
Added game start and game over sound effects.
Few more tweaks...

'New for v4: - Added game start and game over sound effects.
' - Balls don't reappear so quickly at first, but
' as time moves on they respawn more frequently.
' - Increased health max to 7, live longer and prosper.
' - Increased number of active shots you can have.
' (that's right, you now have a seven shooter)
' - Increased health status display (easier to notice)
' - Shields move across with a wobble, in the way more.
' (have to give the enemy something more too...)
' - Fade out screen when game over (looks better)
' - Added New Hi Score notice after game, if you got it.
'Move player using arrow keys - SPACE bar shoots.
'Shoot the balls. Don't let any hit you or pass you by.
'A moving shield appears now and then to protect balls.
'See how many balls you can shoot down before dying.
'Catch green pill to increase your health points +1.
'Catch yellow pill to be invincible for 15 seconds.
'This is a basic shooter game that is easy enough to
'learn from and expand on so you can make your own game,
'I used balls as an enemy because I had a ball SUB handy,
'and it had a colorful effect. Used it for shots and
'for the moving shield. I also used an alpha screen
'clearing method using LINE instead of CLS. This gave
'all the moving pieces a neat trailing/fade effect.
'If you miss a ball, or a ball hits you, then you loose
