Not surprisingly, it's a Space Invaders clone for the Series 5. The program is fairly complete and has already undergone some initial closed beta tests but I'm releasing it as a public beta purely to chase out any last 'undocumented features' that I'm not yet aware of (as well as the ones that I am!) - and because people have asked me to. I'll post incremental fixes here for download until v1.0 is 'officially' released...
Compatible with:
(NB: Space Invader5 is not compatible with the revo/mako)
There are still a few known (but relatively minor) bugs and they are documented here. If you find any more, please let me know and I'll add them to the list of things to fix. :-)
Version: | Release: | Tentative Timescale: |
v0.1ß-v0.75ß | Not for release. All the preliminary programming and bug-fixing prior to initial testing. | Done |
v0.76ß-v0.88ß | An initial closed beta test to weed out the worst of the bugs that I haven't spotted and to help set the game-play levels correctly (speed, difficulty, etc.). | Done |
v0.90ß (Current version) | Public beta release. Just to root out any final bugs. | Now! |
v1.0 | Full release. | Sometime, maybe... ;¬) |
