    Hi there,

    I would like to present our new game - Bridge Strike. Everyone knows River Raid game :) You may say that Bridge Strike is a modern version of River Raid.

    Check out the screenshots below:

    Bridge Strike was originally created for… Amiga! Yeah, game was officially released on Amiga earlier this year by Project R3D. We really like this game and decided to make it work also on other platforms, so more people could play it and enjoy it.

    Main features:
    • RAID mission - destroy as many bridges as possible and try to survive
    • CAMPAIGNS mode - various missions with specific tasks to complete
    • 4 different locations
    • various dynamic weather conditions like sunny, snow, snowstorm, rain, rainstorm etc.
    • dynamic time of day (day/night etc).
    • lots of enemies to destroy
    • great music and sfx
    • many hidden funny stuff :)
    If you would like to check the game and help us fixing bugs and adding features please subscribe for beta on www.bridgestrike.pl. We will start beta testing soon.

    Thanks!

    Hi,

    Please check the first real-time video from the current state of the game on iPad. Video shows the first few minutes from the RAID mode. I hope you will like it.

    Looks awesome! My first thought was on controls. The left side of the screen is a floating stick (so wherever your thumb is on that side) & type anywhere on the right to shoot. That would just clear the screen & look good.

    I think it’s awesome as is (haven’t played the game just watched the video) but I do like a clear looking screen, nothing blocking anything.

    Hi @ShinHadoukin, thank you!

    That is a really good point, thank you. We are going to "split" the screen for the controls. There is also a chance that we won't have to use a "static" floating stick to control the plane (the idea is that "center" of the floating stick may be anywhere in the screen and can be invisible). We need to test it more.

    Hi there! We need your help :)

    We are changing/improving UI in Bridge Strike. Unfortunately we have two ways of doing main menu in our "team".

    Option A)

    Type of the classic menu/UI - buttons with texts.

    Option B)

    "View from the cockpit"

    Both version are in draft stage, it is about the concept ;)

    Thanks!

    Hi there!

    I would like to present the latest screenshots from our game Bridge Strike.

    Screenshot_20190909-170923.png Screenshot_20190909-171108.png Screenshot_20190909-171136.png Screenshot_20190909-171838.png Screenshot_20190909-172635.png Screenshot_20190909-172644.png Screenshot_20190909-172659.png Screenshot_20190909-172911.png Screenshot_20190909-173120.png Screenshot_20190909-173723.png

    As you can see we have improved the UI a little bit ;) Cockpit view is ready and even joystick is moving while you fly ;) We have also improved the map tiles and lots of other stuff, which is not visible here ;)

    @ShinHadoukin - there are no "controls" in the game view - you control the plane in dynamic way as you suggested. I have to admit that it works really well. Once again thank you! :)

    (You can also control the plane with your device using accelerometer or with physical joystick)

    The RAID mode is ready! Currently we are working on missions in CAMPAIGN mode.

    Most of the stuff is there. Unfortunately, because of some issues, not related to the game, we had to postpone the beta release. We want to release beta with our official game trailer (which we are working on now ;)).

    Best!

    hey zorilla, i've got the mail with the beta test invitation today, and i've played it for a couple of hours... wow, what a great work, the game is just perfect as it is, and a truly "River Raid" heir, i'm loving it so much!
    btw, i like the control system, very intuitive, but i beg you to change the game icon, really awful ;)

    Thank you Gwarmaxx! We really appreciate it! :D I guess I have sent you an email already ;)

    It has been a long and hard time before running the tests and we are very happy that finally we can show the game.

    So, yeah! We have started closed beta tests of Bridge Strike! :D
