Default [FULL v1.2] Galactic Wars 3

http://focusedgames.com/?p=23

Full version! (v1.2)

Changes:
- Added high scores support.
- Added support for touch pad, didn't remove support for dpad. Touch pad gets a speed boost though.
- Fixed a bug in Level 4.
- Moved content loading to up front to remove long load later on
- Full support for the Hard game setting
- Fixed explosion sound to be louder
- Power ups are in place for the most part but not enabled because there is a bug I am still tracking down

Have fun! By the way, level four is kind of a dummy level right now because I am introducing a new enemy type. Expect at least 3-4 levels by the end of this week.



Additional Notes:
- If you are still going to the old site (site down with donation button) don't worry, your DNS servers haven't updated yet.
- Don't run the game from Visual Studio. Make sure you deploy, unplug and then play.

If you could add artist select like in khao's pong game it would truly be the perfect game.

hmm for some reason there are some errors with mine. right when i extract and then open the solution it says:

Solution Folders are not supported in this version of Visual Studio
Solution Folder "Zune" will be displayed as unavailable.

then it says in another error message:

Some of the properties associated with the solution could not be read.

Then when i deploy anyways, it takes one second to zoom onto my zune, and doesnt show up in my games anywhere.

help?

by the way, i have downloaded every single game and put all of them on my zune with no trouble, im not new to this, i dont know whats up

I got the same errors at the beginning, but deploying it worked fine for me. That's strange......


This game is awesome! Adding touch support would make it even better I think. But great job, I like it a lot!

When you have touch on, the ship does not fire when you move, I think that it should.

k got it working, just had to download it again for whatever reason. one thing, i know ive asked this before along time ago in a diff thread., but does it make a difference of which of the two files i download? there's a green one and a blue one, the green one says express. i downloaded the blue, and i have the basic C# program i downloaded in the first thread about how to put games on ur zune. does it matter if the one i put on worked, or should i put on the express version?

No it isn't. The DNS entries haven't completely updated to my new host is all.

The "Express" one is for you guys, the guys that do not have VS2008 Standard or above and thus cannot see the solution folders. The game should be exactly the same.

I agree that the ships should fire when you move when touch is on. Otherwise it get's slightly annoying having to touch the edges then click the middle button every time you move.
