Congrats dude! Store page and release date, great to see this project is almost complete.

That trailer looks pretty sick too, first I've really seen of the final boss and dang, it looks really trippy and cool!

 

Thanks! It will be a real push to finish everything in time but hopefully I can manage!

Added some dynamic lighting to the phantom asteroids, I think it looks great!

Was messing around with SIIE and the new chronostasis effects, welcome to hell

Boss rush mode is now up and running! Still need to make the alternate gameover screens for this mode, and a win screen, since you can actually beat it unlike the other modes

I'm definitely really excited for the game and I think it looks really great. However, I'm just curious what you are doing for marketing? This is always a tough issue for indie devs and I'm curious how you are tackling it.

 

Thanks! Been hard at work with sound today, bunch of new sound effects for the boss fight and a new song for the credits will try to get some more new sound effects done tomorrow, they really help it feel lively

Unfortunately I can't really think of much marketing to do :/ I update here obviously, and I try to tweet fairly regularly. I have a Facebook page, and I write some tutorial articles on indiedb (aiming to start writing more). Other than that, some reddit on the weekly threads on r/gamedev, threads on r/unity, and just telling friends about it. At 83 wishlists currently, so don't think I'm doing a good enough job :/ but I've got no other ideas. I'm aiming to finish the game before August so I can spend the entire month contacting reviewers, press, YouTubers etc..
