Wow, this is absolutely incredible to see! The video was very impressive to watch. I loved playing the original Flash game, but its limitations have become more of a hindrance as I grew older. Seeing my most favourite Flash game ever being ported to a 3D engine with so much detail to the models, doubling the cast of units/buildings, well-thought-out game mechanics, and uncountable quality-of-life improvements... I'm so so keen to set aside time to play this properly!
What an amazing game! I love the original, and this is a great expansion upon it. I love all the new units and features, and the fact that the Astros' and Aliens' units are different now. Obviously there are still some bugs to work out, but I really hope you're still working on this, because this is already great and could be with refinement a masterpiece.
Bugs I found:
I accidentally ordered a Dropship to unload when it was hovering over a cliff, and all my troops ended up suspended in midair and unmovable. The Dropship was fine but those poor engineers...
Building on the clifftops is inconsistent at best. Several places where I think I should be able to place a turret and I can't, or where I can but it's sticking off the cliff halfway. Some of the spots on the cliff I can build on end up putting the building at the lower ground level so the model is halfway buried.
Turrets firing from clifftops is hampered by line of sight problems. When an enemy unit gets too close to a cliff with a turret of mine on it they aim through the cliffside at each other and end up just shooting rocks. Or worse, sometimes the infantry beam can hit my turret but the turret can't hit back.
That said I'm super impressed and so pleased to find a great expansion on a game I absolutely loved. The game is a blast, thanks for making it!
I was so little when the original came out that i loved the idea but i had such a hard time with the game that i would constantly get mad at it. can't wait to see how this pans out!
