Code needs cleanup and I'm not finished yet but it works pretty well for the time being.</p> <p>Hope you like it! :)</p> <p>UPDATE 04.03.2022: Release version 0.9. Changed year (yep we're indeed in 2022 :D) and created an endboss. Fixed various bits and bugs. Game is small with only 5 but I don't see the point in going for 100 waves.<br /> UPDATE 24.02.2022: Changed the name. A few tweaks and bugfixes, faster response, graphics and particle explosions.<br /> Worked on various game mechanics, player energy and collision, AI for the Aliens etc.</p> https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=46725 https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=46725 Wed, 23 Feb 2022 13:53:54 UTC
