Network Shooter

This is a demo of networked gaming made with XNA.
It's a simple shmup that can handle up to eight players over a local network or the internet.
Each player gets their own colored ship and can shoot lasers that bounce around the game space.
When you get hit by a bullet, you die; the last one standing is the winner of the round.
It also has a server browser and a lobby, in which all players must ready-up before the game starts.

The video here is just me playing against myself over LAN, so unfortunately it doesn't show 8 players.
Also keep in mind that I was playing both ships at the same time, so please excuse my poor flying.

And yes... that is cornflower blue.
