I really like diving in a plowing through the sand! Maybe that could be a strategy or something...I thought I might dig up some sweet items!

Anyway, great colors and style.

Thanks! Yeah you can already use diving to get rid of homing missiles and you can sometimes bait enemies into colliding with the ground. There's gonna be a drill melee weapon that will allow diving and colliding without slowing down and taking damage and I still want to add rock structures and floating islands to give player and enemies more to collide with.

More boss and active action:

Zone two and three are integrated now, featuring high tier fighters an a second boss. Many small fixes and improvements happened along the way, there is a visual indicator for shield status not among other things (was audio only previously).

The blue shield-like thing looks sweet, and tricking enemies into ramming into the ground sounds fun!

[sleeper_service]

Third boss is in the works. Eventually the existing bosses will become the boss pool for zone one.

Teaser Time!

[InterGalactic]

Teaser looks amazing as expected before checking it out from the screenshots, great work. Looks really unique and the game feel is on point!

[sleeper_service]

Thanks! Lets see how it holds up to the public.

HDog is now in public alpha and available on itch.io!

[sleeper_service]

Made some improvements to performance, now working towards doing the greenlight thing...

[sleeper_service]

HDog is now on greenlight!

[sleeper_service]

Vertice Shield, one of 40+ new passives for the upcoming ultraviolet update.

[sleeper_service]

Also worked on some quality of life tweaks coming alongside the items. You can reverse thrust to break and hover now. Should make air-to-ground combat a little more organic and increases overall mobility.

Added the ability to reverse thrust in order to break and hover:

Dogfighting.

HDog made it into the final batch of greenlit games. Thanks for your votes!

[sleeper_service]

Started to work on new zones.

[sleeper_service]

Alpha 0.74 (X-Ray) is almost done, featuring many new zones and enemy types.

Looks great. Sort of Gravity Force 2 meets Jetstrike.

[sleeper_service]

New bosses incoming. The naval cruiser carries some jam domes that normally only appear later ingame. As long as they are up they scramble your shield and interdict your evasive jump, which it exploits with cruise missile barrages.
The frigate pressures you constantly with fire from it's attack blisters, but the scatter turrets can be taken out individually. It will also attempt to jump on top of you for heavy collision damage.
The cealaformer sticks to the top of the arena from which it launches bombers, missiles and photon shots. It also swipes left and right with beam strikes if you engage it from the flanks and is protected by a recharging shield.

[sleeper_service]

Two more bosses completed. The corvettes try to pincer you from the sides and have some nasty beams swipes. The fighter jet of your rival draws from certain items in the global loot pool and gets new property each time you encounter it.
