Been working hard, I wanna get to the front page no matter what it takes.

I need some tips on how to make my game a bit prettier and more user friendly. if you have any good ideas make sure to share on here ^.^

General info >

STORES ARE AT SPACESTATIONS, WHERE YOU CAN BUY AND UPGRADE GUNS/SHIPS.

Just fyi - The planets are small on purpose, and you cant fly the ship up/down on purpose.

There are 500 planets, and over 2500 guns not including color combinations or stat variations.

I could not have 500 planets if they were much bigger. Ship battles would be too difficult and not user friendly if you could fly up/down. I decided gameplay was more important than looks/realism in that regard.

Wow!
500 PLANETS AND 2500 GUNS!?
Amazing man.
Try taking out some of the bright colors on GUIs (I can't play the game, but I know this helps).

I suggest getting a nice thumbnail for the game, no one wants to look at space every time they see the game. I also suggest a tutorial or a menu for teaching players how to play the game.

Thanks guys. Yeah i am thinking about adding a help box on the top of the screen similar to that one dinosaur game... Not sure if adding a tutorial will be worth it because people will probably just ignore/speed through it.

Oh, about the thumbnail, i wanted to wait until i had a solid idea of how aliens are going to look. Right now they all look like a square blob, but i wanted to have over 50 different types that all look different, and because i wanted to feature one of the aliens in the thumbnail i thought i would just wait until i am farther into production.

Working on it! I am going to make luck give you a chance to dodge attacks. I would make the attack physical and have you actually dodge them but i think that would be too hard to make streamlined, especially with as many types of enemies i am planning on adding.

Yep. And coming soon ships will be build-able, meaning you can choose the base, wings, thrusters, and guns.

I'm thinking of having atleast 10 of each part, meaning once im done with that there will be 10,000 possible combinations. I think ship building will be done within a week, and having 10 types of each possible part will come later, closer to the game being finished.

After that there are going to be buildable and buyable spacestations. You will be able to customize the outside and furnish the inside. People in your group will be able to visit it.

I got alot on my plate at the moment haha.

I can say this game is well designed and will def. be worth playing when it is out. I love the concept and would play it myself even at the stage it is in. Good Job Looking forward to more updates by you.
