Version 0.5 Alpha is here as we approach a viable launch into Beta.
In this version:
-An FPS counter
-A console ( [Delete key] to activate once in-game )
-A new boss ( Has to be manually spawned through the console - "ScrSpawnBoss1()" )
-Extras ( All unlocked up to Pic E )
-Once your hull us damaged, you will start to leak atmosphere. ENJOY!
-Aesthetic changes across the board.
As some
I've worked on this for a little bit and have decided to use normal raster art in addition to computer-calculated vector art. This may have some impact on framerate on older machines, and I'd like to hear the FPS and computer info if you experience this. To counteract framerate drops, I will be instituting graphical detail options in v0.6a.
In addition, I've added basic abilities to the first game boss, although the ship must be "Hacked" in and its behavior is nowhere near what I want it to be in v0.6a, so expect major changes to that.
I will be taking a 3 day break between this post and when I start work on v0.6a, as I've discovered in the past it's a good idea to take even a short break away from a pet project so you can look at it even somewhat objectively. Rest assured that v0.6a will be worked on, and it will eventually come out.
Enjoy,
Hans "Darthvender" Gregersen
