Thanks! I'm really trying to pay attention to details, even though not always successfully Smiley Right now it's mostly a balance between adding new stuff and improving what's already there.

Past 2 days I was actually working on a mission mode. It will present a set of challenges of increasing difficulty while rewarding player with stars Smiley makes the game a bit more objective-oriented. 7 easy missions are there atm, but I want to add at least 23 more.

So, as of today:
- mission mode! Complete tasks & earn stars, gradually getting into the game.
- mode selection screen rework: less annoying popups
- bugfix: reseting controls after the game (sometimes plane turned/started shooting by itself after game restart)
- time bonus: new sound
- time bonus: animation on pickup

Looking very cool and inspiring man. The only thing I'm not so sure of it's the gradient backgrounds. Are they placeholders?

Thanks! The gradient backgrounds are definitely more like placeholders now. The cloudy backgrounds are there to stay tho. Smiley The thing is: gradient backgrounds can be cycled quite-well (for the infinite mode), so I don't really know how can I make it different.

Made a new patch today:
- New enemy plane: seeker, follows the player around
- Five new missions
- Fixed jittering in touch follow / joystick mode
- Bonuses are going to spawn closer to you (and mostly in your way)
- Guaranteed to drop health bonus for every 1000 score now

Made a relatively small update, v1.1.3
- bonuses fly towards you (if you are close enough)
- you can also shoot with Z key
- 3 new soundtracks!

Going to prepare for GameOn convention in Lithuania (going to be there to show off my game!). If anyone is going to be around - feel free to drop by Smiley
