Hi Allan,
Thank you for your feedback, it all helps! I hope you don't mind me
responding to some of these points...
1. Regarding Torpedo ranges, yeah, I'd seen that problem before. It was
more that I didn't take into account sight range with torpedos. I might
make it so that it just ignores sight range, so if you know where an
enemy is, you could still fire on it, kind of like indirect fire where
someone tells you where to aim your torpedos. I'm sure I've seen that
in a Star Wars novel somewhere...
2. Healing touch is kind of by design. Healing touch is supposed to be
more effective in exchange for its limited range. How it's easier to
focus on something nearby as opposed to far away. I wasn't sure I
wanted it to be useable on yourself though. Luke self-heals, though
admitedly not much yet. I'm open to suggestions though. Maybe I'll make
it so distant heal is the one you can't use on yourself.
3. I get the same pronounciation issues with my syntehsiser as well.
It's one of those things where I've got to choose between correct
spelling, or what I assume is correct spelling at least, and making it
sound good. Any thoughts, anyone?
4. Yeah, you might be right. In theory, you can 1-shot a tie fighter or
interceptor and certainly a bomber. It depends on how the numbers come
up for you. Might be a case where I've gone a little too random though.
5. Chapter 1 is quite tough, yeah. My best strategy is to go diagonal,
since you'll find them to be weakpoints. The slight down and upside to
not having diagonal movement I guess. Just ensure you make your X wings
take the damage and slip the transport by. As to the tie bombers, I've
only just remembered that they can't attack fighters (i'd like to just
give them a really really low chance with fighters instead but for now
it's just no attacking). They don't have fighter escort either, since
they're there just to try to stop you from escaping. Those hints might
make it a little too easy lol.
6. For Chapter 7 part 1, maybe I should've been more direct in giving
the objective. Basically, you're going for the Ties, but at the same
time you need to stop the Death Star getting so bored of your fighters
that it goes over and blows up the base. Specifically, you need to take
out big Darth V and his wingmen.
I hope that helps and it's given me some things to consider for future
releases!
Craig
