Public Linux Depots:- Switch 'N' Shoot - Linux [94.07 M]
Achievement Requirement ChangesThe requirements for unlocking two of the 'grindy' achievements have been reduced. This was in response to feedback from several players.
- Ultrahyperdrive - Hyperdrive 125 times (reduced from 250).
- Yakety Sacs - Kill 25 Incubators (reduced from 25).
These changes were made in the Steam back-end and no update is required for the actual game itself.
If you restart Steam you should see the new values take effect. If you had already passed the new thresholds but not the old ones, you should see the achievement(s) unlock automatically when Steam starts.
Thanks to everyone who has provided feedback so far! I'm a solo developer so receiving feedback is super helpful for improving the game, even a few years after it's released! :)
If you have any more points to discuss you can share them...
Thanks!
Matt
[ 2020-04-21 21:22:19 CET ] [ Original post ] Switch 'N' Shoot is an arcade shoot-em-up with a twist...
You only have
one button which turns your ship
and fires your guns at the same time.
It's simple, fast, challenging and annoyingly addictive.
How many alien badbutts can you take out before you become stardust?
(Come on. Your friend only scored 7. You're at least a 12.)FEATURES
- Save the world with just one button.
- Fail instantly. Retry even instantly-er.
- Upgrade your lasers and hyperdrive into oblivion.
- 8-bit pixel art & beautiful border illustration by Paul Duffield.
- Crunchy sounds and music.
- Palette swap to please your eyeballs.
- Silly random name generator.
HOW TO PLAY
- Press any button to SHOOT.
- Press any button to SWITCH direction.
- (yes, they are both tied to the same any button...)
