[ANDROID] [EARLY BETA] Arena Commander

Arena Commander is a wave survival game, in which you pilot a ship of your choosing and survive multiple waves of increasingly tough and varied enemies.. Earn credits and further upgrade your ship with new weapons and abilities

How to Play:
- Use the left stick to control your ship's movement
- Use the right stick to control your ship's turret rotation and firing
- Tap on the Special attack button to use your Ship's special ability (Must upgrade first)
- Earn as much credits as possible while surviving multiple waves
*For testing purposes, the first install gives you about 600 credits to buy and experiement stuff

DEV NOTE:
Game is in early beta, with a lot of work left in Sound as well as General UI Formatting.. The tutorial Gamemode is disabled by default, and certain upgrades are disabled.. Perhaps, in the next beta, I will provide more variations of weapons and upgrades.

The point of this thread is for people to beta test and give feedbacks, particularly on the areas where it can improve..

Thanks in advance for taking part in this beta.. Really appreciate it

0.34

I have given 1000 credits initially, buy all the upgrades and test them out. In this version, ive removed the special weapon button and combined it with the right stick.. To use the special weapon, double tap the right stick.. Tell me if it "feels better" than the older special button..
Im getting a lot of framerate drops after wave 5, please report if the same thing happens with you..
Lastly, when you reach Wave 10 , you are gonna have a bossfight.. For this beta, Ive removed the cooldown from the special weapon, so spam it and get to wave 10 (in the final build, you wont be able to spam the special weapon, i.e. double tap right stick)
Also added a loading screen (Thx Nevil for pointing that out)

Oh dear. There's a version newer than 0.33? Link if possible?

No, I havent launched anything over 0.33 yet, the next version will have major changes, so will take a bit more time

Im also looking forward to include a 1v1 multiplayer mode with internet matchmaking/Lobby, feedbacks ? I do know of a way to do this, but that requires buying/renting some premium server, looking for a free alternative to it..

Lastly, Im looking for a person who is skilled in Adobe Illustrator and is willing to make custom Sprites for me

try double tapping the right stick ?

it doesnt matter if it resets, just try double tapping it..

Maybe it wasnt a good idea to combine these two buttons..

Yep wasn't a good one.The prob is that when double tapping the joystick resets ans i need to go bake and pick it up!
BTW WHERE is the FPS counter ?
Overall loading time has increased.

ooh forgot to add FPS counter, yes overall load time has increased, i preloaded all assets before starting scene instead of streaming it, it was causing lag in several low end devices i tested (Adreno 305)

Should I revert back to older button position ?

IMO previous pos was good.There isnt any lag tho.

Just played .34 and awesome.!! And i feel that emp position is better positioned on that stick.. I'm using it more now and since it's now a double tap to activate, no misstouch!! Also went to wave 10 and the boss fight was well done!!

Ps: No lag on any wave.
