Hi all! V8 is a “maintenance” style update. The big change “under the hood” is a migration of the game to a more recent version of Unity. This allows better optimisation of the game which should now be more CPU efficient. I have also taken the opportunity to make a few gameplay tweaks based on player feedback, and to fix some minor bugs. Quality-of-life / Gameplay improvements: - Downgrading weapons now recovers all spent UP (previously only 66%) - Reduced firepower of Sawtooth-P in Level 2 ravine section - Added additional checkpoint to assist progress in Level 5 Bug fixes: - Fixed Level 3 bo

“THIS IS CALLSIGN HYPER-5!” Hyper-5 released today and is now available to buy on steam. The game is a cinematic shmup inspired by classics from the “golden era” of the 90’s. Responding to a distress beacon, deep space scout ship Hyper-5 is drawn into a terrifying battle with an unknown enemy. Will Hyper-5 survive its encounter on planet 4GDT? There is of course a free demo download and the full game purchase includes a high-quality audio soundtrack to enjoy as well. I would like to thank all the asset makers, alpha testers, reviewers, streamers, curators, the wider shmup and indie gamedev com

Many thanks to everyone who tried out the demo of Hyper-5 during steam NextFest and especially those who took the time to provide feedback. As a result, I have made some improvements which I am pleased to announce are available now in the V5 update of the demo. This will be the last demo update before release. The most significant changes are: Faster ship movement speed Although speed upgrades are available, the player ship movement was too slow by default. This has been increased by +25%. Selectable font for menus and on-screen display Choose between original “stylised” and new “readable”: {S

Hi Everyone! Firstly, thank you all for your interest and support for Hyper-5. I am very much looking forward to releasing the game later this year. I have had several people contact me regards the Demo of the game which I had hoped to release by now. This has been completed and approved from a technical perspective but unfortunately due to difficulties with a promotional tie-in I am unable to release on steam at this time. I sincerely apologise for the delay and I ask for your patience. In terms of the game itself, I am pleased to report that an initial build of the complete main set of five
