THis bug is still in the game, i was wondering what that was about.

This is also a known bug in Beat Hazard.

Hm.

Scratch that. Its a problem with detecting mouse clicks near the top of the screen in full screen mode (windowed is fine). Sometimes the whole button area can be clicked on, other times only a few pixels (near the bottom) detect clicks.

Hi,
Quick response :O. Turns out I cant reproduce it now either since Ive finished that mission (or because Ive tweaked the loadout of the cruiser)

I can’t reproduce that bug any further tips on getting it to happen?

Hi,
Got a bug report, not sure where the proper place to put them is

Go into the gravity well mission.
Check the mission and supplies buttons, they work, close the boxes.
Pick a cruiser (my choice, may not be important) that has a limited item installed.
Mass deploy it to the limit.
Click the mission and supply buttons again, no response.
Leave to main menu and come back, still no response.

PS. Also crashed the run time one time only by clicking around ships during the battle to check on shields/damage, rare and very hard to reproduce (my favourite! NOT)

Hi Cliff

I bought GSB through Steam, version 1.27; how do I update to 1.28?

Thanks!

Good job btw, love to see independant games grow. I encourage you to keep going on GSB, you could expand into turn based 4x with GSB II .

Also, it seems to me that your game would be perfectly suited for the Zune HD and other touch-screen portable consoles (if it were built in XNA though for Zune instead of C++), I think as it stands it would be easier to port to Apple IPhone though.
