------------------------------------------

I thought I would give a few details about the fun, versatile level types you will enjoy.

Level Types:

Mini Nuke:
Launch the Mini Nuke into clusters of mines, big bonus score for using minimum nukes!

Pot Shot:
Fast moving mines fly across the screen in singles or pairs. You use the plasma spray to deal with them. Kind of an alien clay pidgeon shooting theme!

Mine Sweep:
The origins of the game design, clear all mines with all weapons available as pickups!

Carnage:
A swarm of mines to clear as fast as possible with the the crazy bouncing bullet!

Skill Shot:
Roll the Comet Buster slowly into formations of oncoming mines. Or swipe it really fast, and throw it though large numbers of intersecting crossing mines. Bonus for using minimum Comet Busters!

Marksman:
Using the Sniper Bullet, hit only the red target mines for huge bonus. If you hit the other mines big point deductions

Snake:
What alien (skill-based) shooting game would be complete without a huge angry Snake Bot to deal with?
 
Oh my yes,...I've been waiting patiently for this game since it was first announced. Can't wait to see the stunning graphics in action!! :cool:
 
Hey fellas!

Thanks for the comments! I'm stoked you can remember Katileo! Sorry we didnt end up making it.
Zixxby is slightly different, the video doesnt really represent gameplay very well. The idea of the game is that different types of mines are heading for a central orb and you have to stop them. But there are alot of different level themes.
For eg, you have levels all about perfect timing, where you have only a few bullet with which to smash lots of mines. Some levels have different coloured mines but you can only hit one colour type, which is a cool spatial awareness skill test. Other levels are pure carnage!
We are trying to give alot of variety within quite a slick, simple game.
We hope that if Zixxby takes off, we can make more in the series, and the ideas we have for gameplay go more and more 'off the wall' with each new game.
Anyways i will keep you updated with the progress!
 
mh...

-Make videos of the game and post it on youtube

- maybe give a tip to droidgamers.com or androidpimps.com they are two big android game sites.

- facebook and twitter accounts

- Post the game in many forums :) (i post your game in my favorite german forum [Ank
 
At the moment the game is contolled with the tilt sensors, and swiping, tapping the screen for different weapons. We think it is the best and most fun way to control the UFO,but i have seen in other game that people have complained about not having alternative control systems, eg. the ghost joystick method you see in many games.
We are going to let the player calibrate the tilt angle and prefered speed of the UFO.
Just wondering what peoples thoughts are on this, and if we need to have the alternative controls options?
Cheers,
Mike
