As always, please follow the links to help us out more; leave a review on the app lab page if you haven’t already!
GaMaYo
On 25th May 2022, GaMaYo held an event in Leeds! We showcased our demo there as well as a few other game developers! It was filled with amazing people who were very friendly, and it was a great way to connect! Amazing games are coming out, so be on the lookout for them!
We had amazing feedback from the people who tried out our game, and we would just like to thank you all! We had an amazing time! Below are some pictures of the event, and you will be able to see some of our devs dancing, and a lovely fellow by the name of Will Buckle took a great group photo of us!
Animations
Drones have been added into the game! Watch out for these pesky buggers when they fly by and shoot you!
These drones belong to a company called F.loc. They are herded by a Shepherd, with the sole mission to gather followers to believe in the one true Metal God. Unfortunately, they have branded anyone under SSC as a heretic, so will shoot on sight! Be on the lookout for them; whether they be flying around, communicating with other objects or dashing towards you, shoot them down!
Below are some animations of these metal lambs.
Mission Types
Let us talk about the current mission types we have implemented so far!
Tutorials
The Tutorials are completed! These will help you to learn how to shoot, fly around and even score/time you on how well you have done! So if you need a refresher, this is the best way to do it!
Race Missions
What is a good space game without a little racing! Fly through rings and try to get the best time possible! Upgrade your pod to get a bit more speed and go back to these missions to see how well you can do!
Story
Space Salvage will include story missions for you to get a better understanding of the world you are in as well as your place. You won’t just be salvaging and racing around, you will have a purpose. Do be careful…you don’t know what sort of small…or large entities are out there.
What’s to come!
As levels are added, we will keep you up to date! We are also adding in characters to debrief you on your missions, as well as an SSC trainer to help you through your tutorials! Characters will come from the Corp side as well as the Scav side; they will be posted on our discord as they are designed or wait till next month’s Dev Blog where we will give a more in-depth talk about them!
