I think we should have a sequel to the Minimalist contest. I will post the rules(green colored text is by me):
* Maximum number of weapons: 10, chosen by the level designer.
* Maximum number of non-weapon parts: 30
* Invisible parts do not count(this does not mean black parts). Just try not to have 400 of them, as we are trying to make lag as small as possible.
* No ship following lasers. Period.
* Must be a beatable level.
* You may only enter one level of your choosing.
* All levels need to be marked: 'Minimalist:' plus the name of your level.
* You may post immediately. All levels must be posted here no later than midnight, 07/11/2009 to qualify.
Post your Minimalist level in this thread. On 07/10/2009, I will create a poll thread. It will include all valid entries. The poll will last for seven days. After which, the highest vote-getter will receive endless Zeta Flow fame.
It even has a background story: One day you were trying to cook a living lobster, but the lobster got angry and pinched your finger! So you take your tiny Zetaflow spaceship and try to shoot the lobster until it starts cooking again! O.o
Erm... Whatever, the story was crap, but the level is not!
Didn't make anything complex this time :P
It ended up being a bit too easy (even without losing a life).
I put infinite lives so you can make your own "best lives" score.
EDIT: Changed the link to point to the profile page of it.
Since I am not gonna be the only one rating this, I'm gonna submit one too!

Yet another of my "Let's make a level! I have no idea what I'm going to make" levels. This is named after Warbot. From Nuklear Power.
