FAILED PUBLICATION :(

It seems that you can only enter the early access alpha/beta testing phase with an already excisting app in the store. Well... We soon have the game in stores!! Should have tested it more before the release but I’m trusting my newly developed coding skills :D Oh man... I can already see the ratings...

[x] Game over screen [x] Gameloop

[intrudersgame-blog]

More gameplay footage. This time in vertical mode ;)

[x] New enemies (lazership, mothership, drillbomb) [x] Tweaking the controls [x] Started play testing [x] Replay loop

Next up: sounds and tweaks.

[intrudersgame-blog]

I simplified the coreloop so that the ads won’t show before the player has reached a certain highscore. This “training period” will act as a tutorial phase.

I’m using the UnityAds. Video ad with a option to skip after 5 seconds.

[intrudersgame-blog]

New UI system. Onscreen joystick and moving thrust bar.

[x] Clouds and background animations [x] Tweaking the controls [x] Ammo to ammo collisions [x] New enemies

Intro screen with the game logo, animated background and player’s highscore counter. From this screen the player will be directed straight to the game or to the tutorial depending on the existing score.
