A simple arcade game, originally made in 36 hours using SDL, OpenGL, sfxr, and some utility code taken from my Azimuth project. I may well work on it a bit more in the future, but you can see where it was at the 36-hour mark by checking out the hour36 tag.

The game plays a bit like Crystal Quest -- there are targets to collect, and enemies to get in your way -- except that in Milestone you are invincible and can only lose by running out of time. Each wave lasts a fixed amount of time, and on each wave you can collect not only the targets for that wave (you lose a life if you don't get them all before the timer expires), but also the targets for the next wave, which allows you to get a head-start but also distracts you from the current wave. If you collect both wave's targets before the first wave timer expires, you skip the next wave entirely and earn an extra life. Enemies can't kill you, but they can knock you around, hide targets from you, or otherwise make your job harder. Fortunately, you can stun or kill enemies by ramming into them or shooting them -- but again, this distracts you from the task of collecting all the targets within the time limit.
