Versions 1.21.067 and 2.01.067 released!

After a long and due vacation from developing Rockbot, I’m releasing this (mostly) FINAL version of the game. The changes are quite long, and I tried to restore some functionality that were removed due to Google’s removing the original game from Play Store; like lifes and in-game weapons selection menu.

But more important, I did finish at least Rockbot 2 stages and enemies. While there are still some things I would to add, given the time to do so, this is now a complete game.

There are some defects, like with collision against enemies, but because this is actually beneficial to the player, I left those there for now, as I want to shift my focus to my new game, Project Firefly. Also, some ports like Dingux and PSP are missing, because either I could not get it to build, or it just did not run properly. I will try to get those later.

Go to downloads section to get the builds.
