Version 1.2.0 of Space Mission: Survival has just been released. This update adds the ability to run the game windowed mode, with or without a border, as well as the original full screen mode. There are also some updates and bug fixes I discovered while adding the window mode option. Let’s cover them here.
For the windowed mode option, you can now select between full screen and a variety of popular 16:9 and 16:10 resolutions up to the resolution of your monitor. You can also reposition the window to where you want, and the position and chosen resolution will be saved for future runs.
On to other improvements… I’ve improved the astronaut floating routines so that they will travel across the screen instead of potentially launching off an asteroid and exiting the screen right away. This makes it a bit more fair by giving you some extra time instead of watching them quickly die.
I noticed that the asteroids were drifting slightly after extended play, so I improved their movement. While doing so, I noticed that I was moving them in a way that is not recommended… oof! That is also fixed as well.
Finally, as I described in a previous post, I wanted to redo the menus, so I completely rewrote the UI screens to make them more modular and to improve their design.
Thanks for reading, thanks for following, and as always, I look forward to your comments and suggestions.
