Monolith: Cyber Defender

Defend The Monolith:

Brought to a world beyond reality, this ominous tower tasks you to defend it at all costs. You are given a Fourth-Dimensional-Rifle, more powerful than anything beyond Human Comprehension, as you mow down waves of Enemy's, growing stronger the longer you fight. Jump, Slide, and Level Up while dodging Missiles, Air Strikes, and Crystals as you fight for the High Score. Make sure to Read the Rest of the Description and Install Instructions for More Info.

What this is (Nerd Talk):

This is a project i been working on for the past week using the Pygame framework in Python. This project was really special to me because instead of using a Pre-built 3D framework like OpenGl, all of the 3D rendering from the ground, to the tower, to the enemies and Camera are all made with just Pygame. This isn't meant to be a true fully-fleshed shooter and is simply just a Prototype and Reference for future projects, and as a milestone for me being a noob programmer still. I've learned so much and had so many headaches making this but still managed to make something I'm both proud of and something to play when I'm bored, and I hope you would enjoy it too. :)

Tips(since there isn't a tutorial besides controls:

Helicopters are pretty tanky ariel enemy's, but you can deal extra damageby shooting their Rotor Blades or Tail. Be aware though as they can roll their bottom to block their critical points and can still shoot missiles at you so keep on the move.

Geometry Wizards might not be as strong, but they can swarm you easily so don't stay still for too long. They're still pretty easy to kill but they(and all other enemy's) get stronger over time, so it's best you aim for their heads to deal critical damage.

The Bomber is unable to be killed and is REALLY POWERFULL so when it comes around, watch your step and quickly get out of any Red Zones.

Known Bugs:

1. (MINOR EPILEPSY WARNING!) When Sliding, The floor will slightly flicker with the Pink Background. Even Though its not game breaking, still be aware if you have photo sensitivity issues.

2. Small Collision Error where you can fall through the lines on the corners of the monolith(yeah it sounds really weird)and get stuck but you can just jump to get out of it.

3. There is no map boundary so you can walk into the endless background, but there's nothing to see.

(other small bugs are Infinite slide, small audio bugs, some times when shooting at a enemy you shoot the enemy behind instead and also through walls but these sound more like free hacks than bugs. also there's a really weird "issue" where if there's a lot of enemies and stuff being rendered the game wont lag spike but kinda go into slow motion it's really weird but it goes back to normal when you kill everything.)

AI tag?

Yes, I admit I did use help from Gemini SOLELY for coding assistance, as I'm still learning and want to improve in the future and use less assistance from AI for future projects, But I will ONLY use it for help Coding. for my next future project I want to push my boundarys more and use what I learned and minor assistance to make a fully fledged (still kinda small)game, featuring art, music, and sounds made from me.
