So you've mowed down wave after wave of Aliens ...now what?! Well we absolutely have been reading your comments and yes we are developing a challenge and achievement system as we speak . We want to give you more objectives to focus on in your battles than just killing and getting highscores. We want to award you for finding secrets, using specific types of weapons frequently, clearing larger lifetime goals, yes slaughtering enemy aliens by the truckload, and even dabbling in our current powerup system with a few drinks on the house.

We're gradually filling out and deciding on challenge types to complete within our larger Challenge database so stay turned as we work to showcase how this challenge system will work within our larger gameplay systems.

Rethinking our introduction

We want Galactic Bar fight to feel more lived in so we want your arrival to the main hub area to feel special. We're playing with ship models, voiceover, and just trying to get a good sense of how to best welcome you back to the world of Galactic Bar Fight , this is a brief screenshot from our most recent playtests as we figure out how to reintroduce ourselves and introduce you to our new vision of the GBF universe.

Unfortunately, development has been progressing slower than we'd like but our team has just reached the point where we have basic enemies set up, our base weapons working, and we can unleash our wrath on the brutes of the GBF universe.

We look forward to getting builds into some playtesters hands too shortly so please reach out over social media or at our email address: wierdkidstudios@gmail.com if you're interested !

That's about it for this update we're shooting to release the next update by the end of August but we'd rather leave you impatiently waiting rather than have you unhappy with what we createand we will push the release back to September if it doesn't feel like the game experience we want to deliver to you .

Thank you so much for giving us your attention and time !
