Hi every one.
I made new video showing what's new in 0.3.0.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jjzE3lDcS1I

This update has been all about making the game more fun. So some new rules have been added. First, we now have a Heart-cap, this means that you can only carry 5 hearts at the time, until you level up your Heart-cap. You can now level up your weapons to level 3, and add boosts such as Range, Damage and Bullet size.

There is a time limit on the levels, that will start hell-mode if you take too long. I rewritten the jumping so it's easier to control, and some enemies will now charge you. Most of the graphic bits have been redrawn and lightened to make it easier to see where you are going.

Have fun!!

Tried it out, I got up to level 10 before I got careless and died.  I had kind of gotten bored by that point.  No new gameplay elements or enemies were being introduced and the levels all started to feel kind of the same.  Hopefully you can keep adding stuff to the game and introduce something new every level to keep the player interested.

Also, I really hope you aren't planning to add 99 levels, as it would take forever and I doubt you can keep anyone interested in playing that long .. lol

[bome99]

Ha ha yeah the game changes at level 11 and againf at 21 you should have keept on going for one more. And yes there will be about  100 levels when the game is done.

[AlwaysGeeky]

1 question... will this game contain any humerous references or puns based on the song '99 Problems' by Jay-Z?

[bome99]

hahahahahahaha well I don't think so, but you never know.

[bome99]

Build 0.4.0 has been released, lots of great stuff in the update.



This will be the last Alpha, which mean that at next release the price of the game will go up.

This also means that I have had to scale down the game, to be able finish with in reasonable time.
It always hurts to cut out stuff, but I think it was necessary. The game was changed at a lot and the focus has shifted.

This means that two player is gone. It's really sad, but it would change some of the basics that make the single player so much fun.

I now want to make the best single player experience I can make, not to say that two player will never  happen.

Bossfight – shit just got REAL!!
