I work for Retro Army making Super Trench Attack! I worked previously in the industry for 14 years, for various companies. I also made Last of the patriots (free game) and The Old Man Game. I mainly dabble in Art/code/and design, but I'm trying to move into the business side of things now, must be showing my age. I also try to help younger developers get a start in the industry when and where possible.

I see your point, but I think the game plays best running around like a lunatic, I kinda want an arcade feel(as I want to port to mobile at some point), but a lot of people have mentioned not liking the time limit, it's something I'll need to figure out for sure!

Tbh if I was going for just pc, I'd make it more objective based, traditional but that's been done before. I'll see if I can find a better balance, maybe objectives could be side-quests, keep pc gamers happy but not required to beat the mission.

New version coming soon guys, I'm just finishing up the 4th level boss fight...The 'Fumigator' hunting him down is fun, it's a good switch up from being hunted!

Adding bosses now for every fourth level, they'll be three variations each, so about 16 bosses. Should be fun!

Hi Swearload,

Thanks for the feedback, I'll test the accuracy thing, but can't promise anything, I tried it before in STA but most players didn't like it. It worked well in Medal Wars though, so I'll give it a go,

Hi Swearload, they're in the tent near the HQ,under 'decoy trap'! Not in trial version though. I'm currently finishing the steam version so I'll do another trial build with them enabled soon! Any problems let me know!

Thanks Swearload,

Thanks Swearload, I'll put it back in the next version 3.1, so you can shoot over smaller objects, sandbags and fences, as it makes more sense.

Any other problems let me know,

Paul

Hi Swearload,

Is a white flash effect appearing, as you might be shooting collision. You can't shoot over sandbags or small rocks anymore, it makes a 'ping' sound when you shoot collision. Thanks for letting me know about this, as I might make it like it used to be so you can shoot over small objects again,

Don't give up SwearLoad!, making STA is utter hell believe me. It's the curiosity of seeing if your idea works or not that makes it fun, for me anyway. Start small if your new to development, don't expect to make GTA in a week or two. Just having some polygons bouncing around the screen is a big achievement. Anyway back to work.

Thanks Spidercooce, I'm working on v2.1 now. It's got changeable costumes and three character classes, should be even better.

I'll be sending new keys for 2.0 to everyone who's purchased the old version. Just waiting for Desura. You can also pick it up at Indiegamestands PWYW deal coming 1st April.

New version 2.0 is in the works, major changes to gameplay. It's more of a hardcore shooter now with diablo-style grinding. It's also alot more challenging. Oh and there's now 'Survivor mode'.

It's all very early concept art. However the game will feature a certain level of gore and horror.
