Reply With QuoteGood Job Grim, will give it a go the next time I'm at my Ouya!
Ok, so - amazingly - today my first game dev got approved for the OUYA console. I've hit that little old publish button and it should be available on your OUYA's now.
Push it to your console from here: https://www.ouya.tv/game/Silent-Star-Blast/
Silent Star: Blast is a simple, addictive game - that has an increasing difficulty and 8 different ships to choose from. The aim of the game is to destroy as many Asteroids as possible, picking up power ups to increase your fire rate on the way to a high score. Each ship plays quite differently, so the UFO may be more suited a 'twitch' style game, where the slower ships fire larger, more powerful lasers which suit a more strategic game approach.
Look forward to all comments and feedback - the more you say, the more you shape the next Silent Star game!

Grim will be hard to beat. After all, he's probably played it the most...

I'm not sure I think the O button should be used to restart, especially without a confirmation dialog.
proud to have the chance to sideload this with the nephew before it launched, THANK YOU AWESOME WORK! and congrats~! super fun

Hi trizznilaa,
I'd put this in for the gamers who get addicted and like to hit restart as quick as possible after dying, the ones trying desperately to beat their high score. Given that O doesn't do anything else (no firing, etc) I presumed most players wouldn't be mashing it until after seeing the "Play Again/High Score" screen a couple of times anyway.
A lot of old school games used to do this - it seemed fitting.
Thanks for the feedback - hope you're enjoying playing.
...and it was awesome to have that feedback just before putting it live - thanks again! Hope you and the nephew ("It's like Star Wars") enjoy it from time to time.

This took me by surprise! Very fun game. I was upset at first with the auto fire but it adds so much fun to this game! This one is a winner for me - 5 Stars
Keep up the hard work Grim
Awesome to hear mm, thanks for playing and rating - it helps so much. Hope you keep enjoying it and can hit the high score thread soon.
Quick thanks to everyone that's been playing/rating/enjoying so far! It's been a pretty good response to the game - 3.5/5 with 25 ratings (which is over a quarter of all players having rated it!)
Thanks to you guys - the game has hit number 264 out of over 870 games according to the OUYA ORank! Awesome Sauce!
Keep playing and spread the word!
