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?

Whoa it's been too damn long. The first enemy type is a drone that hangs out in the fields. Destroying one sends it flying into other objects. I created an auto-pilot, it's not smart, really just a debug tool that turned out to be a nice screensaver.

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).

Lynked: Banner of the Spark is a colorful action-RPG & town-builder where you and your robot buddies help build a new future from the ground up.

⚠️ The game has a free Steam Weekend from August 7 to August 11!

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

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

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.

The Knightling launches on August 28! Wishlist it now so you don't miss out: https://bit.ly/KnightlingSteam

To celebrate the game's impending release, we've added The Knightling Pack and The Knightling Community Pack back to the Shop!

Phaser beams on full!

New ability & auto-firing is working for both weapon types. Many more abilities in the pipeline too! I like the particle effects on the collisions so far but I want to add some color there. I'm getting sick of this grey ship too..
