A downloadable top-down shooter for Windows

Description:

This game is a horde-mode top down shooter where you and a friend must take down hordes of robots, aliens, zombies, and a giant UFO at the end.
This first started off as a single-player platform shooter, but I had issues with platform collisions and I realized that it would have taken way too much time to make as this was a college project built within 2 weeks.
This game was built entiely from scratch, with the exception of the the sprite engine.
The sprite engine was modified from the gameEngine.py from Andy Harris for use in my custom-made engine. (https://www.cs.iupui.edu/~ajharris/pygame/ch10/gameEngine.py)

Features:

- AI enemies that track down a target (the players) and stand a certain distance away from them to shoot. 3 different types!
- 2 player system. One relying on a keyboard and another relying on a game controller. The second player can also use an alternate keyboard control scheme if there's no controller detected.
- Wave system that spawns more enemies difficult over time.
- Regenerating health!
- Supports an unlocked frame rate!
- Option of 8-way or 360 degree aiming system! (for second player)

Controls:

- Player 1: 
Movement: W for moving forward, S for moving backwards, A for moving to the left, D for moving to the right.
Combat: Move the crosshair around with the mouse to aim, and press the left mouse button to fire.
- Player 2: 
-- With a controller (tested on an XBOX ONE gamepad): 
Movement: Move with the left joystick or the D-Pad
Combat: Right Joystick to use 360 degree aiming, ABXY to aim with 8-way controls, Right Trigger or Right Bumper to fire.
-- Without a controller: 
Movement: Up Arrow for moving forward, Down Arrow for moving backwards, Left Arrow for moving to the left, Right Arrow for moving to the right.
Combat: Press Right CTRL to fire, then use the movement keys to aim in any direction (8-way controls). Pressing Right CTRL will also stop you from moving, making aiming easier.
