SNAKE FIGHT

Ok, so a while back I made Snake Fight in Flex, it's a classical game of snake, with a little shooter twist.
Right now the game is more of a proof of concept, it is playable, but I made the AI too hard which kinda makes the game frustrating.

So I'm starting this devlog and probably a more official one on my website to keep myself motivated to work on this and to ask your oppinions on the game.

I'm gonna start out by making a mobile version of this game with better AI and some new gameplay features and if that goes well, I'm gonna make a PC version with better graphics and even more features.
And a screenshot, 'cause no devlog is complete without one Grin

Got caught up in some other stuff and it kinda took me longer than I expected, but anyway, here's the first result: Link
Theoretically this should work on any phone with java and midp>=2.0, works just fine on my sony ericsson w902, but I didn't have the chance to test it on other phones.

Update:

Made some screenshots and almost added a highscore table.
As soon as I finish that I'm gonna start adding enemies and gameplay modes.

Right now I'm thinking something like this:
  • Enemies:
    • Probe - This is the basic enemy, moves in a straight line
    • Robot - Slowly moves towards you
    • Snake - Another snake just like you, he can eat your beads and tries to shoot you
    • Rock  - When you shoot it, it breaks into four smaller pieces
  • Snake:
    • Can shoot only if he has a tail
    • If he gets shot in the tail, he loses everything he has
  • Upgrades:
    • Bomb  - Shoots everything on the screen
    • Clock - Slows down enemies
    • Freeze - Freezes enemies in their place
    • Shield - Protects you from enemy attacks
  • Gameplay:
    • Deathmatch: You against one or more snakes
    • Survival: Fight against an endless horde of enemies
    • Levels: Fight in a number of challenging levels, this mode will have a story

And the screenshots:

P.S. Is it normal for a devlog to have 200 views and no reply or there just aren't that many people interested in mobile games?
