addedWhat are you most interested in right now: Gameplay tweaks, new modes/features, or graphics/sound updates?
changedI'll be putting some little sentences when you start the game where the "Good luck" text currently is. If anyone has suggestion of cool texts, like gameplay tips or jokes or whatever, please do.
changedAlso, as an update for later: To account for all the changes and parameters people would like to be able to tweak, I will build a game menu for next week's update. I also need to refactor some code because if I don't the game risks getting buggy So that will take some time to put everything in place correctly, which means next week's update will be mostly that: Menu, gameplay tweaking and the Arcade/Story mode

Hi everyone, I have a few things in mind and I would like to know what you all think of that:

  • What do you think of an Octoshield subreddit for feedback and discussions? I find Reddit to be a nice way for this sort of things, we could have that additionally to the Steam hub

  • What are you most interested in right nowGameplay tweaks, new modes/features, or graphics/sound updates?
  • I'll be putting some little sentences when you start the game where the "Good luck" text currently is. If anyone has suggestion of cool texts, like gameplay tips or jokes or whatever, please do.

  • Right now enemies are moving towards a 180 degrees area to avoid constant spinning that makes many people sick. Would some of you be interested in a 360 degrees mode?

  • I am probably going to separate the game in two modes: arcade mode, which will be waves starting from the first one and only three lives, with a high score leaderboard, and the main mode, which will eventually become story mode, with the current save system and able to start from the last wave. This mode will have a leaderboard of the best waves people got to, and probably no score. Does that make sense?

Also, as an update for later: To account for all the changes and parameters people would like to be able to tweak, I will build a game menu for next week's update. I also need to refactor some code because if I don't the game risks getting buggy So that will take some time to put everything in place correctly, which means next week's update will be mostly that: Menu, gameplay tweaking and the Arcade/Story mode
