It is if you have an old video card. :( Sorry, but the game requires at least DirectX shader support v1.1 or better. (Even if I did tweak it to run on a lesser video card, you wouldnt like it.)
 
This was featured in the Computer Gaming World magazine #265. If this is yours then... :eek: Wow!

Thats us. :)
 
A very great game! I must say, I haven't seen a game like this for awhile. One question - Will you make it a Shareware version, and then add a price for this game, or is it going to stay free for ever?

I'm just saying so that this is higher quality than many other games, wich require you to pay 20$!

Keep up the good work!
 
At present, this and all future versions (of which one is coming soon) will always be free to download.
 
Hey, I love feedback! No appology necessary. :)
 
neat

Haven't had time to play it, but it looks pretty amazing. Great job... probably. =]
 
I've got a new version to put up! I'll try to remember to do that this weekend. Its MUCH sweeter now, if its possible. ;)
 
A really nice game! I keep playing it when I have free time. One small thing - It is sometimes hard to grab invaders. Perhaps it could be possible to enlargen the area below the pointer that lets you grab an invader?
 
a neat game but...windows only? :(
a linux native would be kind of nice (although i believe it can be emulated easily).

also any chance of making a 1.01 patch instead downloading the whole game again? my connection is kind of slow you know :p

anyway great game, i really enjoyed it. reminds me of the good ol' black & white (the hand is almost identical).
 
how do you make money lol?
 
By killing Invaders. Wasnt that in the tutorial?
 
Download Dosnt work.

    News portal has been retired. Main page of site goes to Headline News forum now
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I am working on getting access to the old news portal under a different URL for those that would rather use that for news before we get a different news view.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Easily done

  • The Helper The Helper:
    https://www.thehelper.net/pages/news/ is a link to the old news portal - i will integrate it into the interface somewhere when i figure it out
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Need to try something
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Hopefully this won't cause problems.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Hmm
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I have converted the Headline News forum to an Article type forum. It will now show the top 20 threads with more detail of each thread.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    See how we like that.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do not see a way to go past the 1st page of posts on the forum though
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is OK though for the main page to open up on the forum in the view it was before. As long as the portal has its own URL so it can be viewed that way I do want to try it as a regular forum view for a while
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Yeah I'm not sure what the deal is with the pagination.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    It SHOULD be there so I think it might just be an artifact of having an older style.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I switched it to a "Standard" article forum. This will show the thread list like normal, but the threads themselves will have the first post set up above the rest of the "comments"
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I don't really get that article forum but I think it is because I have never really seen it used on a multi post thread
  • Ghan Ghan:
    RpNation makes more use of it right now as an example: https://www.rpnation.com/news/

    What do you think Tom?
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    I will have to get used to this.
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    The latest news feed looks good
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I would like to see it again like Ghan had it the first time with pagination though - without the pagination that view will not work but with pagination it just might...
