No, not got one yet. Having to much fun with Iridium (1080p 60+hz VSync) and the latest version of my C++/DX11 graphics engine (JEng5).

Looks very good this - excellent work.

If you get shot of the sound track and replace it with Carpenter Brut I might buy the game.

A couple of screen shots taken of level 1 stage 2 using Invents awsome new tile set

I have added much more detail since these grabs were taken. New video in the next few days

Multi part enemy ships

Unlimited number of parts
Unlimited number of attached objects
Supports depth / parallax effect
Added support for radar dishes and general greeble
Added support for engine effects which are scaled by reactor health

This is the current end of level 1-1 enemy. This is made using 17 parts at 4 different parallax depths (joining sections). This system is going to be used to produce smaller and much larger enemy ships

Testing the crashing and exploding of medium sized multi part ships

Still needs a few texture stages showing damage and a few other tweaks but overall I am quite pleased.

Thank you

There will be a demo version available soon.

Something I hadn't noticed until recently was the lack of any of the later weapons or the in-game shop in any of the recent videos. Must remedy that soon
