REVIEW: Sky War's Dunkirk Update 1.4 - Gameplay Tweaks

There are a few gameplay tweaks that we're going to share today. It's been an interesting journey for Sky War and we're excited about some of the changes released recently. If you've not read our post about the new Dunkirk ship, be sure to check that one out next. ENEMY VELOCITY First and foremost is a change to the enemy velocity and speed in the maps. In playtesting, we've noticed that just about everyone is ready to toss their phone in frustration at the inhuman speed of the opposing enemy forces. To that end, we've throttled the speed of the enemy ships. Not all of them, but enough ships to change the nature of the game away from twitch play to maze solving. if you're a casual gamer, the upcoming 1.4 update is for you. RED ARROW WARNINGS There are some enemies that you need just a little bit more time to prep for. We're aware of which ones these are and have added a red arrow indicator to give you enough time to prep. BUGFIXES We fou

Want to know more about the REMOVAL of pervasive advertising in the 1.4 update of Sky Wars? Read on, here. In this post we hear from the development team's thoughts on why advertising was completely rethought in Sky Wars. Hello there! There's a balancing act in mobile games. On the one hand, as a player you expect and tolerate a certain amount of intrusiveness for a free game. If it doesn't support IAP, most likely the game has advertising. If the advertising is done well, then you shouldn't even notice. If it's not done well, then you're like Buzz and Woody here: It's not fun to work on skill mastery of a level, only to experience both crushing defeat and then be presented an ad immediately after being blown to pieces. One of our first steps to making Sky War just a better game was to go back to basics and look at what makes it fun. Is it fun watching advertisements on every screen? No. Are there places where advertising is OK? Yes. How we lo

From casino slot games to Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes, autoplay seems to have become a key feature of today’s mobile games. Through exploration and research and adventures in game-making we’ve learned a lot about autoplay. Here we’ll share some tips we’ve compiled to help our fellow mobile game developers understand the role of autoplay in the game you're building. 1. Take a holistic approach  Consider these 3 spheres of gameplay: Mechanical Gameplay (Intrinsic rewards) Physical skills such as tapping, clicking, swiping Includes real-time battle reactions and decisions Meta Gameplay (Extrinsic rewards) Long-term strategic decisions and growth optimization Resource management  Includes collecting, upgrading,
