The past couple days were pretty busy for me, so I didn’t get all that much dev time in, but today I spent a solid 5 hours working on Wave One (and I’ll probably put a few more hours in tonight!) but I’m happy to report the following additions to the game:

• I actually added gameplay. What was before just a home menu is now something you can actually play. (aka spaceships to blow up)

• Lots of screen shake for an impactful experience.

• A particle system for dynamic explosions

• Laser cannon will overheat if you use it to much, causing you to have to wait extra time before you can use it again

• Player health with Game Over on death

• 2 of the many powerups planned

So there is a lot more for me to do, but already the game is kind of a blast to play. It shouldn’t be very long (1 week?) before the game is ready for some play testers. But I’ll make a whole new post for that.

So what do you think? Are you excited? Have ideas to make the game better? Interested in being a play tester? Let me know in the comments. :D
