Interstellar Force Version 2.0 is Under Development

Interstellar Force version 2.0 is under development

I’ve been working on Interstellar Force version 2.0 over the past few weeks.  A lot of the new features were requests by users and some were items that I just didn’t have time to add to the original version.

Here are some highlights:

  • Three new levels including an additional 8-Bit level
  • An all 8-Bit Endless Mode (requested by multiple users)
  • Boss fights at the end of each level
  • Original levels are enhanced and lengthened
  • Lots of new enemies including enemies that spawn stuff (enemies, etc…) when they die
  • A 3 level “lite” version of the game that is free for people to test drive Interstellar Force.
  • Free upgrade for existing users
  • And More!

I hope to release Interstellar Force V2.0 and Interstellar Force Lite sometime in February – keep an eye out.
