Demo v2.5 release

bracer · 01-16-21, 06:49 PM

Hi everyone!

It is time for a new little demo to show you the progress of Battleship Command!
In this demo you can test your skills in handling a battleship in 5 different scenarios and get a feel for what I am working on.
It is still rather (mildly speaking) unpolished and will require some time to get used to for the user.
So do not expect a finished game, but rather a sneak peek into the hobby project of an amatuer programmer/battleship enthusiast

Be sure to check the manual on how to fire the guns at your target correctly!
Press F1 key for help while ingame.
There is no mission endings, simply press ESC when you are finished playing.
The M-key and the map is curretly disabled...

Next I am going to work on adding:
-Friendly AI, for bigger battles and more strategy
-Mission editor
-Airplanes
-Damage management
-AI crew, helping you with guns/navigation/damage reports
-Terrain and a map view
-User interface

Cheers!

I would be very interested in knowing how it performs and what kind of system you are running.

So far there is no reports about the bug where it doesn't launch at all or any shader errors!

Looks interesting! I'll check it out!

Great! Let me know how it runs and if you manage to sink some ships!

A few people with AMD/ATI/Radeon cards are getting a shader error message on loading scenarios.

I am looking at a hotfix and hopefully got it uploaded in the evening.

Has anyone ran it successfully on a Radeon?

The Nvidia cards seem to be more tolerant when compiling shaders.

The early demo link from dropbox does not works, any chance you fix it?

Thank you.

Hi John Hans!
Sadly this demo is very old and not really representable of the current Battleship Command.
It used an old homebrew of an engine and didn't perform too well.
So I don't maintain that demo anymore...

Hopefully I can get something out for the Unity version soon enough.
