After two months my game is featured on Kongregate's front page. And I get flooded with "Why didn't I get my badge?" emails. This game still has some bugs that occur rarely. I already tried doing this multiplayer for a few days but it proved to be harder than I though it would be.

New mode update v1.27

I added a new SKIRMISH mode, where you can choose up to 4 players and change their color, control, ore etc. You can even choose your map, and whether you want the fog of war on. There was also a survival mode bug where the whole game crashed, that issue should be fixed now. A couple of other minor bugs are fixed too.

Drone Wars is featured on ArmorGames.com, also a minor change. The mine drone was not returning control when it died should be okay now.

Thanks all for your suggestions:
1) Sped up ore gathering and build time.
2) "Unselect All Units" you can press SPACE instead of ESCAPE.
3) Supply drones cannot drill too close to the mothership!
4) SHIFT or CONTROL with drag will add units to your group.

Still in beta. I thought I would get more good feedback from the Flashkit guys, but didn't get much. So I'm just releasing it here now awaiting your comments or suggestions! Check it out!!

Improved speed and new features.

I fixed some of the speed problems by removing the onEnterFrames inside some bullets and made them into timeline effects. Also put in another map scrolling option, if you have not selected any units and you click any part of the map, it will move to that location.

Drone Wars Beta

Drone Wars is a small game idea I had 5 years ago, but never finished. I drew the ships as sprites. But with Flash I vectorized everything and here it is. It took about 3 months part-time, which is the longest and most complicated Flash game I've made so far. I'm gonna leave it single player until I see if it becomes popular. Multiplayer maintenance is a big headache.

I've squashed most of the bugs on my own, but if you find anything please contact me or just respond to this blog right here. I appreciate any help you can give me.
