In a sort of coincidence a release lines up with my regularly scheduled development update. So, without Further ado.
You can download the desktop version here.
So what’s the whole story line for this game anyway? I’m glad you asked…
Meaningless Flavor Text
While couch sitting in a basement with your friend, said friend bogarted all the Funyuns!
Since couch sitting is hungry work you have decided that you need to go get some more. Fortunately there’s a convenience store just a few 100,000 km away on the other side of that asteroid field. You think briefly of plotting a course around the asteroids when your stomach says, “Grrrrrrrr need Funyuns NOW!” Quickly, to the ship and straight through the asteroids we go!!
Unfortunately all of that basement sitting has left you with a bad case of “can’t fly straight”. So the odds are that you’ll just keep flying faster and faster in loops through the asteroids. But, hey, funyuns are worth dying for and you’re in a rush.
Overview
You’ll be flying endlessly through an asteroid field trying not to hit anything hard or run out of fuel.
Before each suicide run you’ll get to pick the configuration of your ship because you’re rich!
Hulls
Each hull has a different size body, a different sized fuel tank and consumes fuel at a different rate.
Weapons
Nuke A – shoots a cluster of asteroid destroying missiles.
Nuke B – shoots a different cluster of asteroid destroying missiles.
LASER – shoots a powerful asteroid vaporizing LASER straight ahead.
Wave – a gravimetric distortion pulses outward from the ship for two seconds causing nearby objects to disintegrate.
Shields
Barrier – puts a force field in front of your ship.
Bubble – puts a force field around your ship.
Shrink – makes your ship smaller but provides no other benefits.
Extra Tank – attaches an extra fuel tank to the shield mounts.
Special
Dooms Day – destroys all asteroids within view.
Invincibility – makes you immune to asteroids for some time.
Cluster Bomb – launches a cluster of anti-asteroid bombs forward.
Converter – passively increases the number of fuel asteroids encountered.
Things You May Encounter in Space
Asteroid – it’s a rock.
Fuel Asteroid – blow it up to release a fuel ball.
Fuel ball – fly over it to replenish fuel.
Hull Patch – can be used to continue after a collision. Expires after 1 day. Made from two part epoxy nanites.
Aux Fuel Pod – can be used to continue after running out of fuel. Made from an isotope with a short half-life… it’s useless after 1 day.
And since a monthly update wouldn’t be complete without a schedule update.
We’re currently going through testing on the mobile version so that should be released soon. And the people rejoice yaaay.
