Alien Asteroid Assault

Archive: 5 posts


Hello, I've spent an enormous amount of time making this level and I know you're going to enjoy playing it. It's one of the best asteroids/space invaders style levels out there. It's greatest strength is the fun factor. I could literally play it for 45 minutes straight, and I've already spent over 150 hours making it and testing it. It is a game that just doesn't get old. Trying to beat your high score is added incentive. You get to choose the music and there's a tutorial to show you what all the gauges, meters, and upgrades do. Give this level a try and you won't regret it. Thanks

Hi! I really enjoyed your level, the tutorial was a nice touch and a big help. You definitely have a lot going on. But I wouldn't say it is too much. If anything, it adds to your level. Nice to see progress meters and something to shoot for. Something I would like to see, and not sure how hard it would be to implement, would be to either have a.) more lives, or b.) more health. Just so the game lasts a little longer. This would allow the player to take advantage of all of your other options and see the great potential that your level has to offer. Definitely will be back for more (with or without changes). Maybe I need to practice more, but I died pretty quick. (hence my reasoning for more lives or health) If that's the case then disregard.
Also, I liked the intro and the menu system. Very good looking.

By the way, thanks for trying my level! Also thanks for your comments / suggestions. I will take them into consideration and try to correct them. I think I will be using followers to make the blocks 'snap' into place. (once the block gets close to the border, the follower will 'pull' itself to the edge.) Though it will take some time to update all the puzzles, it's been one of my complaints from the start. The help screen isn't a problem to correct, just have to work out the cameras and update the instructions. ( it's good to get feedback, because I know how to play it, but to others they might not understand as well. -thanks for pointing that out.)

Yeah, I've been really surprised by all of the low scores people have been getting, so it's not just you. I could easily score 35,000 almost every playthrough. Makes me think maybe it's too hard. Of course I have played it so much that it's hard for me to look at it objectively and see what it would be like for somebody who's playing it for the first time. I think instead of more lives or more health, I'll make the easy part last longer before it starts ramping up in difficulty. Thanks for your feedback.

Just a quick note. I played it again last night and I will have to say the improvements are great! I take back the statement of needing more lives or health. The health power ups came when expected. A suggestion: maybe a super health? (full health) (this is very very minor).
I think the difficulty level is just right for new and repeat players. It is not too easy. The transition from easy to medium to hard was seamless. I was able to see the true potential. (power ups, 2x, shield, health etc.) I like the variety of objects. I think this is a great level that I will return to! No bugs to report at this time. All works as advertised! Good Job!
-Adam.

Just trying to get a few plays. This is an undiscovered gem that I know deserves more plays. 50% of the players have hearted it. That's a really good ratio. Please check it out. Thanks.2011-11-07 05:13:00
