Version 1.5.0 Update

I want to thank those of you that have downloaded and played my first game. I turned 58 last week and this is the most fun I've had at a computer in decades I think.

I plan to keep added features and updates as I learn more in preparation for my second game. for now, here are the latest gameplay and feature updates.

Added Player Respawn in Level

  • 2.5 second time delay on respawn where player is invulnerable.
  • Player respawns in the center of the screen instead of resetting the entire level when the player dies.

Added Homing Missiles

  • New homing missiles target UFOs from anywhere on the screen.
  • Homing missile earned at 20,000 points and each additional 20,000 points.
  • Fired with Gamepad (B) / Right mouse button / Shift key

Added “Death Blossom”

  • 3rd weapon added to the ship (you old people know what it is)
  • Death Blossom earned at 75,000 and each additional 75,000 points.
  • Fired with the Gamepad (X) / Middle mouse button / Tab key

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed reset issue with speed
  • Fixed issue with points going up to infinity
