Devlog: Ready for Playtesting! 🚀
Hey everyone! I'm thrilled to announce that we've made incredible progress today on [Game Title]! This has been a big day in development, and I can’t wait to give you a behind-the-scenes look at what’s been accomplished – and to invite you to help test it out!
What We Built Today 🛠️
Today was all about bringing everything together to get a playable build ready for YOU, our amazing playtesters. Here’s a rundown of what we achieved:
🌌 Dynamic Asteroid Spawner
- Variety and Intensity: Our asteroid spawner is now fully functional, spawning different types of asteroids that vary in size, rotation, and speed.
- Challenge Level: With each upgrade, the spawn rate increases, so things get more intense as you progress. Stay alert!
🔥 Visual Effects – Fire and Explosions
- Asteroid Fire Trails: Now, each asteroid enters the screen with a fiery tail effect, adding a dose of realism and making the gameplay more visually engaging.
- Explosions on Impact: When you destroy an asteroid, expect satisfying explosions to light up the screen. It’s both thrilling and rewarding to watch!
⚔️ Upgradable Player Abilities
- Upgrade System: After every few rounds, you’ll have a chance to choose between three upgrades that can enhance your weapon power, defense, or even add unique abilities. Each choice is strategic, so choose wisely!
- Stackable Upgrades: Some upgrades can stack, allowing you to double down on power or defense as you progress. Will you go for brute force or long-term survival?
💥 Interactive Health & XP Bars
- Health System: Every shot and every asteroid collision matters. Keep an eye on your health bar, located conveniently at the top of the screen, as you battle through waves.
- Experience Points (XP): Destroying asteroids rewards you with XP, which fills a sleek XP bar below your health. Each level-up lets you unlock a new upgrade. It's all about progression, strategy, and survival.
Join the Playtest! 🎮
With all these pieces in place, the game is ready for YOU! Your feedback as a playtester will help shape this project and take it to the next level. Every moment spent playing – every upgrade you choose, every asteroid you dodge, and every epic explosion you trigger – helps us make this game even better.
Thank you all for being part of this journey. I can’t wait to hear what you think, and I’ll be eagerly waiting for your thoughts, ideas, and any bugs you encounter!
See you in the asteroid field! 🌠
