Welcome to the Spacial Invasion Discussion Board. Here you will find blog posts by me, the developer, along with many other interesting topics that others have found, or have written. This thread is meant to be general discussion about Spacial Invasion, and the development process.

I will be trying to write weekly, or at the very least fortnightly blog posts related to the development of Spacial Invasion, and some ideas that I have had in relation to my game. I may also soft-launch updates within my weekly (hopefully) blog posts, so that it something fun to look out for.

I think that an important part of the development process is explaining, and writing about what you have been doing, even if this is just in a private diary, hidden in a drawer in your office desk, than only you know about. Writing is a powerful tool in organising your thoughts, and a method of keeping track of your ideas and thoughts, before they vanish into deep space. This is why I will be writing my blog posts, both to let interested people know whats going on, but also for the benefit of myself, and my thoughts.

Anyhow, I hope that you enjoy these posts in the weeks to come, and have fun playing Spacial Invasion!

The spacial invasion launcher has recently been updated, and now has a new look and feel. I urge you to download the latest version of the Spacial Invasion Launcher, as it now auto-updates itself and auto-updates Spacial Invasion.

When you first launch the launcher, it will auto-download Spacial Invasion. When you close the launcher, it will automatically update itself. These updates only occur if an update is available to either piece of software.

Have Fun!

NOTE: All Spacial Invasion Versions After, But Not Including ALPHA 9 Will Require The New LAUNCHER To Run.

Spacial Invasion Alpha 8.2 is going live tonight, and includes both major and minor changes to game play. A new enemy has been added, along with 5 new skills, and behind the scenes game info has also been updated. While this update includes a significant amount of new content, there is still a large amount of polishing needed before Alpha 9 can be released.

Full Change Log:

• Third tier enemy added - Has a custom movement system, and can enhance enemy projectiles).
• 5 Skills Added - Relating to Player Shoot Speed & Player Bullet Damage.
• New Power Up - Slows down enemy bullets for a period of time.
• Game logo & icon changed
• Game Window Name changed
• Slight UI colour changes

As always, the Spacial Invasion Project Launcher will automatically update Spacial Invasion for you the next time you open the launcher.
