Development News - Autumn Update

Arcade Classics · published 4 Oct 2023, 19:10 UTC

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

After a long summer and early autumn of regular work, I'm finally back and working on the next game in the collection: Alien Assault. The following is finished using placeholder graphics (and no music/sfx yet):

  • Core gameplay mechanics (movement, shooting, death/respawn, enemies/waves ++)
  • Input remapping
  • Steam Leaderboard


Next on the agenda is gameplay loop (bosses, transitions, achievements), graphics (pixel art/animations), and music/sfx.

In addition, more options are added to the settings:

  • Resolution
  • Graphics quality
  • Master volume


Also working on new Steam store and Steam client graphical assets. All coming soon!

Check out this short video for a demo of it all: Watch on YouTube
