[GAME] Stroid - A Retro-Synth Space Shooter for iOS

Hi there,

I started teaching myself Unity at the end of March this year, alongside learning how code and make artwork, audio, etc, and after many online tutorials and frustrating evenings, I’ve just finished my first game – Stroid

Check out this trailer for a flavour of it:

Stroid is a retro-synth space shooter about destroying hazards from the outer orbits of increasingly alien planets. There are asteroids, bubbles and shattering crystals to contend with, and destroying these nets you ore, which is required to purchase upgrades and power-ups, allowing you to progress further!

Some key points:

*Hypnotic, colourful visuals and an infectious synth soundtrack
*Simple tilt and tap controls
*Five planets that go well out of this solar system with six orbits around each
*One of them is called Jeff!
*Three Stroid variants to unlock and upgrade alongside three thunderous power ups

The game is going through the iOS App Store approval process at the moment and I’m aiming to have it out sometime soon in December for £1.49.

Any thoughts of feedback would be very much appreciated!

Many thanks,
Matt
