Universal Xenowerk (by Pixelbite)

Cool! It's always nice to see devs that participate in the forums

 

I downloaded this game recently. Great graphics and gameplay- no probs with any of that. The issue I have is there seems to be some screen stutter (NOT the shudder effect). It happens about every 30 seconds in game, more noticeable I think with power up drops and collection. Running on an iPad Air 1. It's not heavy lag but did start to bug me a bit. Is this a known issue?

 

Thanks for submitting this.

Could you please send us some screenshots of the issue (if possible) to [email protected] and we'll investigate the issue.

Thanks!

 

Not sure I can get screenshots...does iPad Air have any screen capture built in? Anyways I'll have another look at the game and post here or email about it.

I would say it's a personal niggle- it's not very noticeable, I just have a thing about any lag/stutter. I would also say the game is outstanding- the graphics are really very good, especially for the small download size- it really shows off the iOS metal thing. And there really is quite a lot of equipment and play time...and its £1.49 !! With NO IAPs!! Amazing really.

 

Press the power button and home button at the same time-- don't hold it down.

 

Anyone having an issue using the Steel Series Stratus? Or at the very least, am I missing the option to turn on controller support somewhere?

 

Ok sorry about the delay, had to re-download it. When you say screenshots do you mean stills or video (can't do the latter). Playing again the whole animation breaks up and looks a bit jittery after the first few levels. It's not obvious at first as the screen is largely darkened. I guess on a smaller device like iPhone or faster/more RAM (Air 2) it may be smoother. Never read anyone else had a problem with it so probably just me being fussy.

 

This game is pretty fantastic. This is what Alien Syndrome for PSP/Wii should have been.

 

Update?

This is one of my go to games, but it still needs some more mutants for variety/difficulty. The ending was a bit of let down too. This did tide me over until the 3rd chapter of Space Marshals, but I'm hoping the promised update adds a bit more depth so I can get some more replay time out of it.

 

There still seems to be a resolution issue on iPod Touch 6th, mainly to do with the font. Load screens seem to be ok but the main menu & in game font is blurry & a bit unreadable.

 

They mean stills. Not everyone has access to video capture, but everyone can take screenshots by pressing the Home button and the Power button on their iOS device at the same time.

 

Oh man, Bolt Tazer is so overpowered. Good DPS, high firing rate, penetrating fire, stuns enemies, residual damage, and when you get it up to max level, it basically doesn't overheat (I haven't seen the heat gauge appear once since getting it there).

 

Thanks- I'll get onto that.

 

Still screenshots would be great! Please submit them to [email protected]

Thanks!

 

On some devices the controller seems to only connect while the game is running. Have you tried that out?

Please let us know how this works out!

 

OK I sent some stills- Hope it helps. Anyways it's a Great game and ridiculously cheap at £1.49.

 

UPDATE!!! Pixelbite=love.

 

Just saw it on Appshopper.
Would love to read what you guys think about the update.

 

Holy shit, so unexpected!

 

Been waiting for this update nice surprise for me waking up this morning. I love this game!!
