Show HN: My first WP8 game – Made with Unity
- the_unknown 12y agoFirst: Thanks for launching on WP8 - I see you've already launched it on other platforms so hopefully adding WP8 to the mix was relatively easy. - your app is currently using the default Unity logo in the app listing once a user downloads it so you may wish to add your own logo there instead. - the game itself feels sluggish even when used on a high-end Lumia 920 - I'd check out any optimizations that could be made as other Unity games run far smoother - the gameplay is entertaining but you may want to add some pickups such as missile-armour or 5sec invincibility, etc as the rockets are very difficult to avoid
- zerobudgetdev 12y agoThank you a lot for the suggestions :-) At the moment I use the free version of Unity which doesn't allow having a custom logo on the splashscreen. The pickup you suggested are cool. Will probably work on this (in my free time).
- 8_hours_ago 12y agoFYI, It is unplayable on my low-end Lumia 520. I'm getting about 1 fps.
- zerobudgetdev 12y agoSee answer about the shader above ;-)
- higherpurpose 12y agoIf you launched it on other platforms, why is the headline making it sound like you're just launching it on WP8? Why is that news is what I'm asking, I guess.
- ChrisClark 12y agoSounds like he is saying it is showing the default icon in the app listing, the icon in the Windows launcher. Not the splash screen.
- antonius 12y agoUnplayable on my Lumia 520. Very laggy. What could be causing this?
- zerobudgetdev 12y agoJust found the problem. It's a not optimized shader I left out in the scene. Expect a fix soon.
- dimastopel 12y agoSame issue on Lumia 920
- guardian5x 12y agoLaggy on Lumia 925 as well. But still looks like a fun game so far.. Looking forward to the fix.
- zerobudgetdev 12y agoAn update should be available for the game now. Let me know if you encounter problems.
- faragon 12y agoYoutube video, anyone?
- zerobudgetdev 12y agoNot the best video I made, but here it is. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-3oPl5FIt5U https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-3oPl5FIt5U
- chiph 12y agoCan you dodge behind the barrels/rocks/cacti to let the rockets blow them up instead of you? Also - wasn't really sure what the condition is to get to the next level -- survive for so long?
