Am I the only one that's missing the Segoe UI font?
Whenever I try to debug it tells me I cant find it, I tried adding the Microsoft redistributables and edited the code to use them but then it said it couldn't find that either, no matter where I placed it.

Reason: wanted to explain in more detail
Great game!
Very fun and simple, yet a decent challenge.
Only problems (in my eyes) I saw were:
1) I tend to accidentally hit the center button, pausing the game. Not a huge problem, I just need to learn to not press it!
2) In game, I will try to avoid a shot coming at me near the wall, so I will try to get up against the wall so it doesn't hit me. But when I hit the wall I will just bounce off and end up getting hit by the shot.
3) Ability to adjust music volume? I have only played a few games where I can actually do this! My volume defaults to 8, and with the earbuds I am using I normally listen to music at around 12 or 14. So some of the times I can not hear the music.
None of these really are huge deals. Mainly just user error I suppose. Maybe I just need to play it more to get used to it? Or just learn to deal with it.

Anyways, great game. Keep up the great work!

Raising the Zune volume above where it is set when the game is started is impossible except through the Zune guide (this is the music menu that is used in Hexic and Texas Hold'em). Unfortunately, while the Zune guide provides a true volume control, it is extremely limited in every other way: compare the music menus in SIR TET 4ter and Hexic, for example.

I love this game too, but for me hitting the center button causes the Zune to crash and restart.
When I try to deploy it I get this error Error:
1 The font family "Segoe UI" could not be found. Please ensure the requested font is installed, and is a TrueType or OpenType font.

Ahh, I understand now. Thanks for clearing that up.
MS needs to let us add the zune guide and more importantly, make it so exiting goes back to the menu instead of restarting. MS give me happyface one moment, but sadface the next.

The Zune guide is already available for XNA apps. The problem is that it sucks (except for the volume control).
It's unlikely that they will ever resolve the reboot problem. It's an intentional limitation to make the Zune harder to hack. Microsoft isn't going to try to hack its own product, so it allows its own games to exit sans reboot. Additionally, Microsoft doesn't want XNA games to be competitive against whatever commercial agenda they have for the Zune platform.
Nice job. My only complaint is the game exits when pressing the pad. Very non-standard. It's too easy to accidentally press it while playing, at least for me.

You could always just change it to one you have.

does this work for 3.0 firmware? it's on the 3.0 firmware package....and also i am getting this error message, Error 1 The font family "Segoe UI" could not be found. Please ensure the requested font is installed, and is a TrueType or OpenType font. C:\Documents and Settings\Raidersam12\Desktop\Squadron Z\Squadron Z\Content\Calibri.spritefont Squadron Z
could you possibly include the font? or am i not seeing it? that would be great though

Reason: "[emailing] one of the admin for requesting this font" would probably piss them off majorly

Could someone tell me how to change fonts?

Double-click on the error message. It'll take you to where the font is (not sure what its called), change the font to 'arial' (or something you already have)

Ok, got that. What do I do after that? I cannot deploy. Do I click "Build Solution"?
