The improvements are really showing, and is definitely adding more polish to the game! The new death animation for the last boss is fun, as well as the Gunstar Heroes like homing bullets!
If I had any major critiques, I'd say that it may be a good idea to make the pink energy spheres smaller, and a bit slower since the player is pretty large. Also, instead of an X, maybe put HP or LP for the health number if a life bar is out of the question.
In any case just some suggestions. I have more, but I don't want to come off as a nag so keep up the good work!
Incredible work so far! Love the voice samples and hi-res mode usage!
My only humble request is that you do as much as you can with the stock SNES. I'm sure the MSU-1 is tempting, but I find it defeats the point of showing what a SOTN on the SNES might be like.
I ditched the health bar in favor of the player changing colors when they get damaged. I might consider making the flight indicator bigger, or even just a bar that depletes, but outside of that the UI is pretty much complete😌
It's a platform game for the 30+ year old GameBoy handheld system (granted greatly enhanced by the GameBoy Color), so expect content and gameplay that's typical for games of that generation.
The game is still in development, but I will have it for sale once the game is complete. I might look into working with a publisher to have it available on consoles and Steam.
