    The game works fine here as well.
    FPS : 100
    Nvidia 7600GT
    AMD X2 AM2 4.2
    1GB Ram

    I really like the re-spawning effect any chance you can write up something small about how you achieve it?

    The respawn effect is a very small pixel shader (only 7 lines of code) which uses a normal map to distort the screen... The shader is written by Dan (the one who is making the DanJetX-component set).

    I fixed some things. I think another upload will follow this evening with sound support, too.

    I wish Traveler gets this one running on his machine, too!


    btw: I limit the FPS to 100 in the first upload... so don't wonder why you don't get more FPS.

    It's working now.

    Just one question... don't you thing that gravity is a bit to strong?

    it's working fine...
    45 FPS on my AMD Athlon 2700+, GeForce 5600 FX

    @srki: How did you get it working? I did not upload a new version yet!
    The gravity is ok with enough FPS... I hope the new version will give you some extra FPS to play it as its meant to be.

    I just restarted my computer and run only game, no background processes... FPS was almost 40 and ship could fly but gravity was very strong

    Edit: well... it now works even if FPS is just 30!? Are you sure you didn't upload new version?

    Yes, I am absolutely sure


    But I uploaded a new version NOW!

    Changes:

    - FPS should be increased
    - 6 different gem models
    - sound support
    - multi level support (right now there are not much of levels *hehe* but you can press F5 to switch to one of 20 internal levels (most of them don't differ, its just implemented yet, no level design)
    - added a countdown (which makes no sense in this state of development, but it will later on)
    - Adjusted "target FPS" and movement factors, so that the game should run much smoother with low FPS...
    - Gems don't spawn immediately after they were picked up... they get a random timerange (0.5 - 6.5 seconds) now to respawn

    Please report issues if you have some minutes to test it Thanks!

    Yup I had a go - all looked fine - about 99 FPS so that was good. Like the popping in of new canisters.

    Nice to play for a few mins but at the moment it is missing motivation. Safest way to play is not to start

    I also found the background misleading - I though there was space craft lower left corner when I got there I realised it was just background texture- duh! Must get glasses.

    The spray effect is also very nice.

    Thanks Czar!

    The background is a placeholder... Don't worry about the spacecraft I will make some space scenes in Max later on, but right now a placeholder must be good enough

    No motivation, huh? Isn't it enough to play a dumb game without any goal, no levels and no highscore

    I am working on this "issue"
