Hi! This is my first post on this forum. Bear with me because I am not sure of all the rules. Anywho, I am a huge Phoenix fan and Phoenix HD is one of the best shooters ever, any platform. Hello, Selachii! Get my e-mail?
Hey Sel I got a couple of questions: 1. Any estimated time frame when I can give you more of my money (new ships) 2. Would these (ships) be made avaible on 2nd gens. 3. Could you add a "double-tap-to-activate" powerups (except the health and shield) as I can never activate the powerups in time, because I play with one hand. Anyways thanks again, I am still constantly playing this game as it looks kick-ass even on my old 2nd gen.
Aiming for this month, no promises Yes, both the player ship and the new enemy ships. We do not plan to change the control scheme at this point.
Thank you!!! So many times I die because I play with one hand so by the time I use my other hand I die. I mean Sel could make it an option if he wanted, so those who like it the way it is could keep it like that.
For all of you getting an iPhone 4S, Phoenix HD will run on native retina resolution, no patch required... (though we have not been able to test this of course, but this should work )
Silly Request: The game looks really nice but sometimes I grow weary of the orange enemy bullets. Would it be possible to add an option to change them to an alternate color, like neon pink or neon green? I was reminded recently that some shmups (Battle Bakraid for example) had secrets to change the default enemy bullet color and thought it would be a nice addition to Phoenix. Thanks.
@geremy: glad you like it! The iPhone 4S runs the game on native retina resolution automatically! Our engine is very much future proof Little project update! We are still working on the update, but making good progress. It took a bit longer for several reasons. One of the reasons is I was not really satisfied with the appearance of the ship, but I feel I nailed it now. For myself at least, I think it looks totally wicked We are also busy polishing the gameplay style of the new ship. As with the previous ships, we want to create a whole different experience, not just a minor difference. I notice that I'm starting to try and graze on the other ships as well, which means the playstyle is different and addictive enough to alter the way I play the game! So, we're getting there! The update will require iOS5, so Twitter integration etc. will use the new iOS5 integration.
hopefully all my other games get updated to use iOS 5 before this update comes out... =o/ (so far, about 60 of 300 apps have been updated...)
