As of today, snapshot 10.2024a for Slugger v1.5 has been released. v1.5 is the next MASSIVE update for my game, which isn't even halfway done yet.

So what I'm asking of y'all is to please give some feedback on this snapshot using the survey below, and I'll give you a reward for it ONCE you do the survey. And trust me, it's a great reward, and may just help YOUR game get more recognition!

So to do the survey, all I need you to do is follow these two steps:

1. Play the current version (Slugger v1.4.7) https://proxyfirewall.itch.io/slugger-v1-4-7-shooter-singleplayer-action-fast-pa... and simply press "run game", or download the .exe file called "Slugger v1.4.7", then play it for 5-10 minutes.

2. Then, I'm going to need you to download the .zip file called "[VERY UNSTABLE] [WIP] Slugger v1.5 snapshot 10.2024a.zip". Unzip it, go into the unzipped folder, go into the folder "slugger-snapshot", and run the .exe file called "slugger-snapshot.exe". After it loads, play it for 5-10 minutes. Then, complete the survey below and feel welcome to add in any extra details or comments or things you would like to say as well.

I just played the two versions and submitted the survey. Sorry if I babbled too much... I clicked "yes" for the first question, but still elaborated.

I liked the game overall and I'm interested to see where it goes. It reminded me of Robotron, but modernized. Really enjoyed the music.

Unfortunately my response was too long, so I put it in a public google doc.

Just to answer the "clutter" thing that I mentioned; I mainly meant how the stacked items and other HUD elements follow the player, but are more bright than the actual slug, so I'd often find it hard to keep track the slugs center position if I glanced away. I think it's probably just one of those things you'll need to play around with, but I'm sure you'll figure out a better design.

Yeah, I'll experiment with it and see what works, and of course, I'll be seeing what potentially you and other people think of it once I've changed things around :)

Hmm, that's weird. Make sure you unzipped the files correctly and ran the correct exe file. I'm not on my computer right now, but next time I am, I'll try to make a simple HTML file and that should be more stable than the exe.
