Can't figure out how to import your own skins tho? Any image I try and use doesn't work well some help with what size or type of images were supposed to use would be good.

Space Grunt is compatible with 64x32 minecraft skins - you can google to find thousands (millions?) of 'em, free for download.

You're doing very well on the leaderboards so far. It's pretty hard, especially in the later stages. Stage 4-4 has a sequence which makes Flappy Birds feel like a walk in the park, but I'm pleased to see a few people have made it through. Sexy Pirate Well-Known Member Sep 29, 2014 889 0 0 Call centre / Parent Newcastle England #9 Sexy Pirate, Jan 8, 2015 I've come across a slight problem. Level 2-1 I can't get the third coin because I've already got three buddy's following me so when ever I get close to where the third coin is the buddy's are shooting the box and pushing it along blocking the path to the coin? Is there a way to deactivate the buddy's or am i screwed? Stroffolino Well-Known Member Patreon Silver Apr 28, 2009 1,100 8 38 Software Engineer Pennsylvania http://www.northernbytes.ca #10 Stroffolino, Jan 8, 2015 It's possible to get that coin even with four buddies. I recommend having laser equipped, rather than spread/pulse. While approaching that section, you'll see a red coin. Instead of getting the red coins, stay low to the ground, and descend when possible. You'll end up next to a cliff, with the crate above you. Accelerate up full speed, right past the crate, then drop back down where the big coin is. The crate might get hit once or twice, but more often than not you'll be able to avoid blocking the path. If you mess up, you can kill yourself and restart in a convenient place. I can post a video if needed.

I've got all the coins on the previous stages and like going for completion. Woo did it with the laser Sexy Pirate Well-Known Member Sep 29, 2014 889 0 0 Call centre / Parent Newcastle England #12 Sexy Pirate, Jan 12, 2015 And done enjoyed playing though this.

And a very nice time on 4-4, too. Did you happen to equip any ghost armor? Sexy Pirate Well-Known Member Sep 29, 2014 889 0 0 Call centre / Parent Newcastle England #14 Sexy Pirate, Jan 12, 2015 I've got the level 1 ghost armour. Really like the game any chance of future content? Maybe bigger boss fights Stroffolino Well-Known Member Patreon Silver Apr 28, 2009 1,100 8 38 Software Engineer Pennsylvania http://www.northernbytes.ca #15 Stroffolino, Jan 12, 2015 Regarding additional content, sure, I wouldn't rule it out. It goes without saying that a good motivator is feedback/ideas from users, though. In the meantime, I'm hard at work on Art of Flying, and a major update for Card Shark Collection. Stroffolino Well-Known Member Patreon Silver Apr 28, 2009 1,100 8 38 Software Engineer Pennsylvania http://www.northernbytes.ca #16 Stroffolino, Jan 22, 2015 Just a heads up - Space Grunt will be flipping to 0.99 starting Jan 23rd, so if anyone wants to snag it before then, you've got a bit of time. I've got some ideas for new levels cooking - I'll publish a batch of additional content after 25 Game Center users have won the game.

Stroffolino Well-Known Member Patreon Silver Apr 28, 2009 1,100 8 38 Software Engineer Pennsylvania http://www.northernbytes.ca #18 Stroffolino, Jun 13, 2017 Just a heads up that Space Grunt has been flipped back to free. It's got an IAP (coin doubler) but is completely playable/winnable without it. For any newbies, recommend to equip at least one 'buddy' (basically the option from Salamander/Life Force) and increased shot speed, then power up the '3-way' blaster.
