Through the Field

New version released as early alpha! I did this bc the game kinda works as a nice screensaver right now ><

Press 1-5 to equip/un-equip weapons, everything auto-fires right now. Once you reach the top it just restarts. Levels just go up for now...

Meteeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrrrsssssss!!!!

EXP on left, health in the center, and engines on the right. As long as you're not using energy the engines recharge. Base weapon ability won't use energy but boosting and specials will consume energy, as will braking.

Space nukes!

I finally have this weapon working close to how I want. As with everything at this stage, there's plenty of tweaking to be done. I turned off the other weapons for this vid.

Space Courier 2! Almost certainly what it's not going to be called! Early Alpha screensaver version released!

Use WASD!

Press 1-5 to equip/unequip systems

Press 'G' to activate auto-pilot and enjoy the screensaver!

All the other systems are still WIP =D

Game Jolt Colors is back!

Draw your OC (or favorite character) in the Game Jolt color palette and post them in the Art realm with the tag #GameJoltColors25.

At the end of the event, we'll pick a winner & add their design to the GJ Colors sticker pack!

Been awhile, but oh yes I now have MENU > SELECT VESSEL > PLAY THE DARN GAME working! Hopefully I can upload this version tomorrow. todo: make the weapons work in an awesome & satisfying way.

The video looks a bit choppy, screen record on a Chromebook

Here's more incredible art that Jolters have made for #GameJoltColors25!

There's still time for YOU to enter so check out your quest log!

Artists are tagged and posts are linked 🔽

Levels now go up!

I tweaked the turning radius and bullet speed, still a lot of testing to do there but this feels much better. Next up is damage to the player from collisions and consuming engine power when firing

Created the game page!

Early asteroid development in this version. Lasers destroy them as well as them colliding with one another. I'm experimenting with a sort-of-random decision on which asteroid is destroyed in the collision (or both).

Happy #WIPWednesday! Are you working on a game? Making some art? Practicing a song? Something else? Tell us in the comments!

More stars and more galaxies!

I draw the background on load & the maps are fixed sizes. You make your way from one end of a zone to another. eventually I'll add hand-drawn pieces the randomness

Should I make a screensaver, or something for LlifeAt?
