Finally got a chance to play it for a bit - in related news, I can't believe how easy it was to use a PS4 controller on my MacBook!
I love the strafing, it makes the movement feel really dynamic. Great graphics and sound, too.
One thing I kept wanting to do was hold down to shoot continuously. Is this possible?
Also are you planning on having powerups during gameplay?
Thanks @mctaylorpants! Yeah hooking Xbox and PS4 controllers up isn't too bad these days. I was surprised I even got my Xbox controllers working on Linux!
Holding down shoot charges up your ship, which let's you do a couple different moves. So holding down fire to fire the regular shot won't work. We're hoping the combat and strategy is more dynamic than holding down fire!
Powerups are also something we're avoiding for now, but they may come in at some point down the road. What kind of powerup are you hoping for?
