  You'll need to install Johnathan Cauldwells superb Multi-Platform Arcade Game

  Designer first: it's here: https://jonathan-cauldwell.itch.io/multi-platform-arcade-game-designer

  I'm writing a Dev Guide for Shmupkit here: https://www.minilopretro.com/blog/categories/shmupkit-guide

  And if you are interested in how I developed Shmupkit here's the Dev bLog:

  SHMUPKIT is provided free of charge, but if you want to support my work please

  feel free to chuck me a few quid, all of the money goes toward maintaining

  my website where I have many MPAGD tutorials available.

  You can write and publish games using SHMUPKIT, even sell them if you like,

  all I ask is that you include a link to SHMUPKIT's itch.io page ( https://minilop.itch.io/shmupkit )

  Hope you enjoy Shmupkit, I look forward to seeing what you come up with!
