After two months of tweaking, optimizing and re-doing some of the graphics the final beta the full game has been finally released!  It plays great, it looks great and it feels like a great game for the WebOS App Catalog... I will be publishing a Lite version of the game soon and based on player feedback I will update the game if issues are found.  This is my first app published and it has taken a lot of effort to get it to where it is today, I am very exited about it and I think the work has paid off!

The Palm Pixi is now supported in Missile Defender, little things changed like the big button for the middle SAM Site.

Some minor tweaks on button positioning will be required or re-positioning of the ammo meter on the left of the SAM sites.

Missile Defender Update

Finally was able to finished optimizing the performance of the Missile Defender WebOS game, at least to minimize garbage collection during playtime.  Based on user feedback the controls have been modified as well and noticed that the fast accelerometer kills performance as well.  The new method is to drag from a SAM site to the desire location to where the missile should explode, the mechanics are much better on the phone.   The game play levels have been change and I am aiming at having 5 training levels and 24 survival levels (hopefully campaign style).  I also added a new type of explosion for the planes, but still need to add typing to the explosions so that I can roll in the land explosion sprites.

 

Next step will be formatting the resolution so that it works on the Pixi and perhaps implement duff's device to further enhance loop optimization.
