Version 0.9.9.1 (PR)
Hi guys,
Version 0.9.9.1 brings us 2 new features:
1. Video tutorials
We do not like to read texts in games, check! Hence I added three tutorial videos, showing how I play the game. I decided to host the videos on youtube and use links instead of ingame video content. This has three advantages:
A: Minimal diskspace usage
B: I can edit the youtube videos without uploading a new game version
C: We can use the youTube comments section to discuss your tutorial video related questions.
2. Hall of Fame
There is one user, which helped me a lot since the very early version of my game. We do not know each other and he basically lives at the other side of our planet, but he constantly helped me with testing the game and he has some serious talent in finding bugs ;-) - The new Hall of Fame section is a place were I can give credits to him. I hope that others will join, so that I can put some more names on this list in the future.
Bug fixes:
There were no major bugs, but a ton of minor issues. If you find anything strange just send an ingame bug-report. I try to update the game every few days, so that we have a very stable and enjoyable game at the release day.
Thank you very much for your interest in my humble game.
Kind regards,
Thiemo

Release: 1st of June
Hi guys,
I fixed the release date to: 1st of June.
The closed beta phases showed that the game is in a pretty good shape, but "good" is the enemy of "great" - isnt it? So I will use the last 3 weeks for furhter testing and debugging. Parallely I will send out pre-release codes to lets players, steam curators and game platforms in order to get some extra exposure for the release date.
Any ideas what I could do to boost the marketing power of my humble game?

Unity Game Developer Contest
The Windows 10 version of Artificial Defense won one of the Honorable Mention prizes in the Unity Game Developer Contest 2016. Well, it's not a big deal for most studios, but for me as a one-man-team, this is a very special day. I think I will order some pizza in the afternoon and a bottle of something I normally don't drink. :-)
