Before you even click the download links read here, please note that the game is $0.99, the reason for that is that i don’t like ads, i know ads annoy people so i won’t monetize the game that way, but i do want to monetize it because the game is taking real effort to me to make it, i’m alone in this project, i’m doing everything, design, programming, etc.
The game is really far from being completed, i still have to add more weapons, enemy types, items and new gametypes like Multiplayer and Campaign modes, not to mention that i will polish/revamp the elements that exist already, so i really hope you understand.
If you want to give feedback but don’t want to download the game that’s totally cool, just watch the video and give feedback based on it, that’s more than enough help to me, so thank you all for reading and for those who get the game, i really hope you enjoy playing it as much as i’m enjoying creating it if you encounter any bug or there’s something that annoys you in the game then please by all means let me know here or in my facebook page through a message: Redirecting...

Devlog 04 video here!
Enjoy!!
Edit: NEW UPDATE!
New video devlog!
Hey guys! Well this is it, i wanted to take my time and make more content in my game before posting here but i couldn’t wait lol…
I’m working on this little FPS game called derelict! Which is a First Person Shooter for mobile!
Plot:
Details regarding what the game is about are still classified… i don’t want to spoil it, but i think you will like the concept, it’s different from what i’ve seen so far on mobile games… however, if enough people tell me to say something about the plot i’ll do it, trust me… it’ll be more than just a first person shooter
Here is a video of a portion of one of the many (hopefully 7) levels the game will have… Please note that this is a WIP so everything can be changed, optimized, improved or deleted:
And here are more pictures of the game from the editor itself:
Well, it may look like i only have an environments but i have months already working on it’s programming as well, here’s the list of the things i’ve done already:
-
Player controls (variant of First Person Controller Script) with added features: Sprint, Shoot, Reload and Weapon Switch Buttons on top
-
Player Health with working health bar
-
Working weapon code, allows you to shoot at any specified speed (the bullet), can change the rate of fire, it calls idle, walking and running animations, you can set a max amount of ammo and also of clip and also a script that won’t let the bullets go through any geometry with collision and it can damage both the enemies and you already
-
It’s not shown in the video but i already have the code (needs more features and polishing tho) for the Enemy AI, i already got the Patrolling, Chasing and Attack states set up and working.
-
Enemy health with health bar shown on top of their head (the health bar has a billboard script so it’s always facing you)
-
Working main menu with Play and Exit button (i will add more features), and also a background with the raw, untextured and detail-lacking design of the space station where the game takes place
-
Working pause menu with Resume, Restart Level, Main Menu and Exit Buttons, as well as a shadow distance scroll controller, volume controller and graphic settings that reach just to the optimal recommended setting for mobile (removing the “beautiful” and “fantastic” graphic settings)… i will add more settings as well
-
Keep an steady 30 fps on newer devices like the iPhone 6 and almost 30 fps on the iPhone 4s… As soon as i get some money i’ll get my hands on a couple android devices to run some testing there as well, but the game should be able to run just fine nonetheless (even more so because of the graphic settings being available)
Just like i have many things done, there are others that i still have to do, thankfully, i was able to learn enough programming in Unity so i can get most of the remaining stuff done as well, some of them tho (those marked with an * at the end) will be a little more difficult and might take me a little longer to figure out…
Here’s the TO DO list:
-
Improve already existing Enemy AI code to make the enemies smarter
-
Work on the 3D models of the enemies and their animations
-
Add at least 2 more languages to the game besides english (Adding such buttons on the main and pause menu) I think i can do this with static boolean variables and DontDestroyOnLoad function to check which language i’ve currently selected… but any advice regarding this is greatly appreciated
-
Add the remaining animations, effects and sounds to the weapons, as well as being able to pick up, drop and exchange weapons
-
Fall damage
-
Death animations for the player (right now it only restarts the current level you’re on)
-
Change the interface design for everything, right now it’s using a cheaply made one using the sprites included in the standard assets pack
-
Add more accuracy to the player rotation control for better aiming
-
Change the skybox, the one from the pics and videos is just a placeholder, these environments are inside a massive space station so i’ll make that pretty clear with my sky (i already have the code to render custom cubemaps so i can get this done quickly
-
Add more details to the existing buildings, add the proper textures and mapping, finish the rest of the level and add the remaining props it’s going to have
-
Finish the rest of the levels
-
Make the scripting for whatever events unfold in the game
Well, i have lots of work but it can be done, there are more things i want to do but i’ll explain as i go

Well, sorry for the huge wall of text lol and i really hope you enjoy playing this game in the future as much as i’m enjoying creating it! I’ll let you all know when i release alpha and beta builds!
And one last thing, this game is for you guys, if there’s something you don’t like or feel can improve please point it out, i’m open for all kinds of suggestions… there might be some suggestions i might not consider tho, but mostly because the game is for mobile so there are many limitations but i also have limitations since i’m not a pro, but i’ll do all i can to make you all happy, thanks you all!
