[DEMO] MECHANICAL STAR ASTRA » Community

Viewing post in Bugs & Technical Issues

Hi again!

I was having fun playing your demo (and feeling awesome unlocking what counts among my favorite game mode <3) (Yes I felt pride, which tells you a lot about why my moto in games is "there's no such thing as a small achievement" ^^ ).
Anyways, I was getting my adrenaline dose, and wanted to come and tell about it here. "Why not use the direct links at the end ?"

But both links to your homepage and to tweeter seem broken.

They take the following form : "%22https//boghog.itch.io/mechstarastra"

Both begin with the "%22" at the beginning.

It's too bad not to collect views and fame after delivering such a solid demo ;-) !!

Hell yeah! Great to hear. Was it the time attack stages?

Also yeah the direct links issue seems to be tied to a Windows update or something like that, it should be gone once I port the game to Game Maker 2

YESSS!! I'm a huge Caravan Stage lover (and its little almost twin brother the Time Attack mode), so you can imagine my joyous surprise when I managed unlocked the 3 ship's Time Attack!

BTW, could you tell me what is the "Wine & Toaster" version ?

Same, caravan time attack stuff is always a good time. It was always disappointing to me that so many games have one course split into 2-7 minute modes instead a fuck ton of unique courses, definitely want to have a crapton of these stages in Astra with their own replays and stuff!

That build is specifically made for people with older computers that dont support shaders, or people running the game on Linux via Wine. The custom ship palettes don't work there but the rest is identical.
