I don't understand why, but the game is often compared to the legendary Asteriods (1979). Although personally, I only see the presence of asteroids and a triangular protagonist in common. Imho this is the same as, for example, saying that Minecraft is worse than the old Tetris because there is no glass and square blocks in a row are not destroyed.

Nevertheless, I continue to improve the asteroids in my game. Interactivity may come later. And now more interesting obstacle sprites. It seems to me that it turned out cool.

Then I added simple animations to the enemy ships. So that the whole game scene looked more alive.

And finally, game progression. Now, as you complete each level, access to the next one will open. And when you re-complete an already opened level, a new task will be given. For example, complete the entire level, shooting no more than 12 times. I think this will be an interesting challenge to increase replayability.

Next, I want to try making several types of bullets with different behavior. Which bullet would you like to see in the game? Be sure to vote below!

I'm working on new levels in different styles in my space-themed retro shoot'em all Galactic Showdown. The Mars outskirts will probably be inferno or something hellish.

Gentleman Rat Studios (@GR-Rob ) describe it as “a little bit Animal Crossing, a little bit Stardew Valley. Maybe even a little bit Windwaker, too."

#Devlog 19 | TURBO and MANEUVER hull skills. Fasten seat belts!

Mae Borowski is the main character of Night in the Woods! It's an adventure game that tells the story of her return to her hometown of Possum Springs. She was confirmed as canonically pan in a social media post by the game's creator Scott Benson.

The new game is out in Early Access! I rebuilt the prototype about five times with different variations of a match-3 and an auto battler/RPG. This combination seemed the most interesting to me. The idea isn't new, but what do you think?
