[WindowsPhone | Web] Pink Galaxy

Hi

I would like to present to you Pink Galaxy, the first game I made with Unity.

I'm a programmer and in addition to some more serious work I develop small games for Windows Phone. Before I used XNA and Silverlight for my apps. This year I started to learn Unity and the result is Pink Galaxy.

In the beginning the idea was to make a simple endless jumper game. But while I worked on it I got some new ideas and changed the formula a bit.

Rather than controlling and moving the character, like in the other jumper games, you have to place platforms to which the character then automatically jumps to. While you do this, you must avoid obstacles and collect stars to increase the score. There is also another new game mechanic. You can draw lines with your finger that protect you from asteroids and interrupt laser barriers.

Working with Unity has been fun. I could concentrate on the design and didn't worry so much about technical details. I was surprised about the good performance. Even on low-end Windows Phone devices, the game runs with super smooth 60 frames per second.

I think the game has some potential for more updates with new content. I already have some ideas.
Also I'll make an Android version soon and maybe versions for other platforms too.

Thank You!

Looks great. A unique twist on the Infinite Runner play for sure. Actually can't even tell it started out with that concept.

 

Thanks.
I started with a very simple concept and tried a lot of different variations. The game changed a lot before I knew what I want.
