Astra Protocol Remake - Now In Beta
We've hit a major milestone - Astra Protocol Remake is now in beta!
We've squashed all major bugs and implemented all features. We're at a point where we'd be happy to release the game as it is - but it needs to get more eyes on it to catch what we've missed.
Changes in this version:
- Enemy ship autopilot adjusted so that they don't immediately overheat.
- Missiles can now cause the monitor shake.
- Adjusted the text cursor to a larger rectangle that lines up with the text.
- Render options load properly now.
- Checkboxes show their checked status correctly when entering the page.
- Improved the way scanlines render.
- Added in a CRT blur effect (this can be turned off).
- Added in a CRT ghosting effect (this can be turned off and tweaked).
And with that, it looks like we've finished everything we're aware of that needs doing.
Does this mean we're finished? Maybe! It in your hands now - we need to know what needs changing and balancing, so we need your feedback. We can't promise that we'll be able to add in everything, but even if we can't get it into Astra Protocol Remake, there's still a chance we could fit it into a future game in the series...
So the most important thing now is to get playing - let us know your thoughts, what do you like, what don't you like, and what could do with being changed?
