Hello! After many months I'm finally back.
A quick recap for those who don't know: I started this project as a team with some friends, my friends abandoned the project because there were no sales to get paid after months... I also lost most of my work because of a ransomware virus so I had to start from almost scratch (had an old outdated backup fortunately), I didn't get to upload the update that was already done back then... the game was $0.99 usd originally but I raised it to $199 usd to discourage sales while I took the time to redo all my work.
With this out of the way, I'll continue...
I'm going to be honest, I was about to give up, my whole personal situation is pretty bad and the pandemic is just making it worse (lost my job months ago and can't find a new one), but I think those who got the game deserve to get something back for their patience.
I managed to redo all of the mechanics, they are pretty much the same for now so don't get too excited yet but there's plenty of room for improvement now.
I won't bore you with more paragraphs so I'm just gonna list what you can expect from the upcoming update.
- New level (the snowy one)
- The new level will not be procedural, it will be completely made by hand (the current level which is a PRACTICE level is randomized and infinite because it is a practice level, that's also why there aren't many enemies)
- New enemy variant
- New powerup
That's all for now, here's also a list of what will come in future updates:
- Option to invert vertical axis
- Yet another level
- New ship designs
- More powerups
- New types of enemies
- Boss fights
- Improvements to existing levels
- New revamped UI
That's all for now, I hope you enjoy the updates when they come. The upcoming update will come in 2-3 weeks, I'm not sure about when after that, there's still lots of work to do and I'm still trying to get money from other places to sustain myself and wife sooo... yeah.
Some pics below, bye and thank you!
