Added minor evasive movements to all smaller enemies when getting hit. Just a little bit of self-preservation makes them look much more natural.

Yesterday I worked a bit on my website for a change: Phobos Down high score tables can now be viewed on the game's web page.

I accidentally made a new top high score in my own game. This game run turned into a proper bullet hell in the end.

I added a small progress bar on the previously black screen shown when pre-compiling shaders. And fixed that zoom animation playing hidden during the pre-compilation phase. Recorded on Steam Deck where this phase takes the longest time.

I added this tiny arrow indicator around the player. It guides the player towards extraction zone at mission end and to nearest healing device when badly hurt. This replaces the blinking healing device indicators at screen edges.

I added 11 Steam achievements in Phobos Down. I might add more later but this is enough for now.

Behold! The first ever achievement unlocked in Phobos Down.

Trying to decide the limits for game run count based achievements feels pointless when so far very few people have completed even a single run 😅

The first two images are alternative mockups for "HUD" kill score indicators at the top of the screen before implementation. The last two show how it turned out after many iterations.

I've been making many small improvements to emphasize the high score shooter aspect of Phobos Down. First of all, some added "juice" to the score and equipment level indicators at the top of the screen.

I made this in #inkscape for Phobos Down. Guess what's it going to be used for in the game!

You will see it in my next #screenshotsaturday post.

I just watched this #demoscene documentary: www.youtube.com/watch?v=pSWA...

It reminded me of myself in the 90s when I secretly wanted to get into demo scene but didn't have any contacts and never dared to go to Assembly parties alone as a shy nerd. I ended up with a #gamedev hobby instead.
