X-Wing-Shooter

Legacy Project, Final High School Project, released on my Birthday!

This game was created upon learning about OOP (Object Oriented Programming) for the first time. I was also fascinated at the idea of Enemy AI and mimicked/created it using lots of logic combined with random timings and behaviors. All artwork was designed by me, and I had a lot of fun using Processing to create the background.

Main Features:
