They'd always appear along with huge waves of enemies, so you'd be able to refrain from firing and 'stealth' your way through those sections, possibly with a mechanic where you could manoeuvre faster if you weren't shooting. Three days is too short a time to get ambitious though, and I'm glad I kept things simple.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>It's been a really fun project to work on, so I'll probably develop it further (I'm dying to add a mouse-controlled drone) and keep uploading builds to itch.io (http:\/\/adfp.itch.io\/superconnected-world)"},{"author_name":"aDFP","author_uid":"3453","time":"Aug 26, 2014 @ 10:27am","epoch":1409048520,"text":"@darkshadow Thanks, that hadn't even occured to me (I always play LD games in windowed mode, if I can).
