Back into game development!

Getting back into game development!


For a long time I’ve been wanting to get back into game development.
To get started again  – I’ve developed a simple mobile 2D space shooter – that will give me a good understanding of the development process and good learning.

This is a recreation of a game I developed in the 90’s, under DOS and later under Windows with DirectX.

Here are some screen grabs from the original desktop/windows version:

Inspiration:
The game was inspired by the classic game: Space Invaders by Tomohiro Nishikado and of-course the Atari 2600 version which I played many many hours on.

A friend and I originally developed this game for the desktop.  Keeping the same invader art; I’ve re-created it for mobile phones:

Please check out the game at Google Play and iTunes store (coming soon):

Happy gaming!
