Hello everybody, recently I have been working on a Java game called SpaceWanderer. I am regularly updating it and have a blog to go along with it. I am getting around 100 views per week and I am hoping to expand my audience. I would also appreciate some feedback. Thanks and here is the link: http://spacewandererthegame.blogspot.co.uk/

Screen shots as requested (keep in mind this is early stage)

As a suggestion, I think you should add some sort of coin system. For every game you play, you can earn points(Or Coins) and put that towards on upgrades, power-ups, etc..

The updates are not automatic at the moment. May implement that feature in future though.

Some more suggestions:
1. Race mode (singleplayer) Race computer space ships to the finish line.
2. Race mode (multiplayer) Race real people
3. Multiplayer
4. Usernames (I know you said we have to go into the files to change our name, I did it already, but there should be usernames so people don't get mixed up who is who :/
5. Co-op (You and 2 other friends Vs. each other)
6. Co-op robots (You and 2 other friends Vs. 3 robots)

That's pretty much it,
-Matt

Thanks, these are really good ideas. The problem with the whole user name thing is that I would have to create a server to check that you are that user. So yeah.

Thanks for replying quickly, glad you like my ideas When the game gets big or in a few months or something you should start making those servers if you can, because it will come in handy for multiplayer :/

Hi, I am working as hard as possible to get this update out before November. There is a bit of a bug with java so when you shoot it will follow your mouse instead of going in one direction. I will try to get this fixed, but if not I will just release it and fix it later.

ON SHOOTING

Hello, the next update is going to be what people have been waiting for- shooting. The release date is uncertain, but it should be good. Aiming will be done with the mouse, firing out of a turret mounted on your ship.

Hi Matt. I do not believe it is possible to make winrar stop picking up jar files. You will have to fix that yourself (as it was the way winrar was set up on your pc). I have winrar and I don't have this problem because I configured winrar to not pick up jar files. Here's a link to help fix it http://forums.majorgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=240842

It'd be cool if you could make something similar to MC Skins

I was thinking about skins, but I want you to be rewarded with new ships. So having skins would kind of waste that.

I love it

Suggestions:
+Pause Button (Esc.)
+Able to change name
+Icon for shortcut (mine is just a winrar thing)
+How to play option in menu
+Controls option in menu (able to change controls)
-Not having to right click, open with Java TM

Those were some suggestions that might make the game a little better, hope you like them

Ok so you can already choose you name (inside the jar there is a config). And you will need to change the right click thing yourself becuase you set up winrar to detect jar files. But apart from that, great suggestions, thanks!

I already changed my name to Matt and everything, but you should make in game usernames so when people first get the game, they can make a username. You should also make it that instead of having to turn off the winrar thing, you should be able to just double click it. Sorry if I said something that would be impossible to code, im just a beginner coder xD
