He told me "it's pretty tough", which almost sounds like a challenge to me Truth is, he probably knows I would get frustrated with it quickly and give up on it
iPad users (I need your feedback) Hey Guys, I'm working on an update on the game right now and wanted some feedback from people playing with iPads. Right now I intentionally sped up the up / down movement so you wouldn't have to roam the screen quite as much, but this could potentially lead to an issue of the ship going under your thumb. For instance starting in the middle of the screen below the ship, and dragging down would land your ship below your thumb. Anyways, I am considering making it so that this cannot happen and have the controls almost identical to the way they are on the iPhone 5 / 6. This would cause a little more need to roam the iPad screen, but it would never allow your thumb to go under the ship. Thoughts? - Charlie
I'll play it on my Mini 2 so I can get a feel for it on the bigger screen (been playing only on iPhone 5) and then let you know what I think. Anyone else? EDIT: I played through the first 8 levels with the TX1. I personally had no problems with the controls the way they are. I don't have a full size iPad, so I can't say how they feel on a bigger screen. But I was pleasantly surprised at how closely the ship movements were between my iPhone 5 and Mini 2. If you do make a change, will you be making it optional? Anyone playing on a full size iPad have any feedback? *looks at paulkane*
Oooooh! Those aliens look awesome. So excited. I don't have a problem moving around the screen with my iPad. Maybe make it optional? I did finally get 76,900 on TL 5-8 so it was probably not shooting the turrets fast enough that impeded the score before.
Oh man. Ohhhhh man. New aliens! New background! New ship! Looks amazing!!! I see the level indicator in the top right corner. Looking sooo good. *drools*
Thanks for posting the Electric Steel Teaser. Looking forward to the update. Now i really got some to look forward (well, if i ever get past Transmission Lost levels first)
You can do it!! :-D Below is an update to Electric Steel. I didn't like the colors in the last one, wasn't reeling the greenish background. You'll see two lightning bolts coming down, the point is, if a lightning bullet hits you or you get hit by an alien that has lightning you're fire rate slows way down, and you're stuck with only x-axis movement. This means, it's going to be REALLY important to not get hit. For this world, I didn't want to just speed up the movements, but rather rely on the lightning and their bullet patterns be the challenge. The Aliens at the end of Guarded Army are just crazy, and while the start of Electric Steel continues with some of those aliens (as all other worlds do), it begins to balance out with needing to learn the alien bullet patterns vs just reacting to crazy fast flying bullets. Also, figuring out how to survive should you get struck by the lightning. I hope I can strike that balance and you guys love it! The new power-up is probably going to be a de-electrification, so you can get back your y-axis and possibly be immune for a few seconds.
I need your help! (will take less than 30 seconds) Hey Guys, I signed up for a contest called "Unsung Heroes" where they try to find indie games and give one a chance at a big marketing package. It's a long shot to win but here's how you can help: Below is a link a post on their facebook wall about Galactic Nemesis (basically a link to the game), if you have time, like / leave a comment about what you think of Galactic Nemesis. https://www.facebook.com/UnsungHeroesSG/posts/455085044668587 Part of the judging is based on what people think of the game, so your actions could get Galactic Nemesis in the running. Thanks for any and all help! - Charlie
Another call for some help, sorry! Hey Guys, Looks like this is the "official" post from the Unsung Heroes team to leave comments on games. If you have a chance to just hit the like button again, or leave another quick blurb about what you think of Galactic Nemesis, would be epic. https://www.facebook.com/UnsungHeroesSG/posts/456753727835052 I also wanted to share 2 new aliens with you, yep, another spider!! -Charlie
Looks awesome! These guys in the forum are WAY higher than me on the leaderboards, but I still play the hell out of it. Still my favorite shmup on the AppStore.
Video for an update : Coming soon Not released yet, but here's the video that will be promoting the Galactic Nemesis update. Trying to finish this update soon! :-D - Charlie
Sweet! Even though i am not even close to completing the game yet, i am looking forward to the new update. I like the look of those new aliens, the more aliens to blast the better. Galactic Nemesis has been relocated to it's new permanent residency on a new iPod touch 6th gen. At the beginning of the clip (which is quiet funny), and please don't be offended, but for some reason i was thinking zombies?
For 99c this is a steal right now. It's a simple shooter, but challenging and easy to get into, and very polished. I'd have bought it even if I wasn't interested simply because of how dedicated the developer is at responding in this thread, but the game is awesome as well. Looking forward to the update!
