Rough Concept for a stage for an upcoming indie game:

Project Shootlanzer.

A love-letter to classics R-Type and Gradius, Shootlanzer is a fast-paced 2D shoot’em up where players take control of Leona Almeida and test their reflexes as they blast their way through squadrons of Iglid soldiers.

Leona’s story is a baptism by fire; as a rookie stranded behind enemy lines, she discovers an imminent plot against her country, and rushes back to warn them, taking down as many enemies as she can along the way. With several types of firing patterns, screen-clearing bombs, and an evasive dodging maneuver, Shootlanzer’s high-speed combat sets the stage for an underdog story of triumph over the commanding generals of the Iglid Empire.
