spinvaders 0.0.3

posted by jack at 20:24 CET in / compute / programming / spinvaders

Another two months, another handful of new changes.

(It's amazing how little spare time one can find to work on hobby projects during vacation and parental leave)

• Cleaned up event handling code; this should fix some bizarre hanging problems.
• Smoothed out the falling monster trail.
• Enhanced alien explosion clouds.
• Levels are now differentiated further. Earlier levels have fewer enemies.
• After every five levels you are given a level skip code.
• There are now "super aliens" which require two hits with the normal weapon (or one with the super gun) to kill them.
• High-score table!

And here's where to get it:

• spinvaders for Macintosh (OS X 10.3 or later)
• No windows build of spinvaders 0.0.3 is available at this time

Installation is the same as before: The Mac version is in a disk image; you can copy the enclosed application and run it from wherever you like.
