This topic is for me to let everyone know what are the planned updates for the game and for future features to be discussed by the community. (Currently due to the amount of work required for University any updates won't be worked on for at least a month)

For the next update:

  • Nukes that will randomly spawn, which can be used to wipe the screen clear of aliens when tapped. This could possibly be a usable item where the user has to shake their phone to activate it, clearing the screen. Then when the nuke is tapped the player has a new nuke to use. *Up for discussion*
  • More indication to the player that they have lost a life
    • As elctrcblnket posted in the bug topic about not having an animation or something to show that you've lost a life, the aliens do play a particle effect when they hit the earth however it is the same as their death one. This should probably be changed.
    • As far as I am aware of there is currently no sound effect for when this happens, so adding that in would be useful.
    • Maybe add a text pop up where the earth is to also help indicate, although would need to be careful that it doesn't clutter the screen.
  • Fix the spawning of everything, currently the spawning is okay but can be improved vastly. This is due to me trying to replicate coroutines without actually using them. This sometimes causes a mass spawning of aliens which instantly overwhelms the player.
    • In case anyone was wondering, I am not using coroutines as they can't be paused and were causing problems with resetting after the player had died.
  • Seperate the How to play screen and credits screen as the current screen is very cluttered.
    • Also allows me to explain the game better if the how to play had multiple screens.
