My inspiration for Star Survivor stemmed from my fascination with the power fantasy I encountered in Vampire Survivors and my passion for grand sci-fi spacecrafts.
How is it different from all the other VS Clones?
- Controls: A unique control scheme demands finesse but becomes rewarding with practice.
- Deck building: Craft your own strategy by curating your library, controlling your draws during the run.
- Equipment Placement: Upgrades and their placements significantly impact shooting mechanics and each other.
Prior to this, I also created a VR first-person real-time space strategy game, which was launched on Steam in 2020 and received positive feedback from players (93% positive reviews). This success boosted my confidence and solidified my determination to continue creating games in the sci-fi genre.
Although the solo develop journey has not been easy, facing challenges in performance, art, and marketing during development, etc. I persisted because I wanted to provide players with an immersive experience of exploring a truly sci-fi world. I will try my best to keep regular game updates, addressing existing issues, and making the game even better in furture.
