Name change! HyperFighter becomes Typhoon Force
Hello everyone,
As I was browsing Youtube I accidentally came across another game that was also named Hyper Fighter, and just like mine was a side scroller shooter where you pilot a jet / spaceship against other enemies, the only difference being this other game is 3D with much different graphics.
When I started developing Hyper Fighter during my university studies about 2 years ago (it was the end of 2017) I did not know of the existence of this game as it did not show up on the google search I had done , so I picked that name. Now that I have time to resume development again, I didn't think of checking whether the name was still available or not, so I just went ahead and published my game under the name of Hyper Fighter.
To avoid problems if I ever decide to release a sequel to this game in the future, as I'd like to be able to use the same name for it, I decided to rename my game. I personally don't mind changing the name and I'm very happy with Typhoon Force now, I wouldn't go back to the old one.
So! Now that this is out of the way, here's what's new in version 0.0.4. No gameplay changes for this time sadly, but I'm currently studying another game (Touhou - Fairy Wars. Touhou is what inspired me to create a game of this genre to begin with) see if there's any interesting gameplay mechanics I can be inspired by to adapt for Typhoon Force :)
- due to a name conflict with another game, the game is now called "Typhoon Force: Storm Fighter"
- new font to better fit the space theme for some texts
- updated project url on the main menu
- new logo
Thank you for reading! I wish you a very nice day :)
