Good game but one problem, the destroyer special red cone area stuck around NE even though the ship face every direction but that. A visual bug perchance? 

Hey, that sounds like a bug. You should be able to fix it by restarting the mission. Thanks for reporting it!

I forgot to mention that it has been days since it happened. No amount of restarting could fix it. There is also another bug(?) located on the storage, specifically the tiny yellow rectangle on top of it. When I pressed it, the storage went background and was unable to interact or sold weapons. It is fixed when I went to another freeport module [outlaw].

Also, is 1-6 mission a scripted loss? I went with Lv 80 Destroyer and Maxim did self healing on normal, whereas hard mode his health went the opposite of taking damage. Please advise. Thanks.

Hello Devs, you've got quite a nice game going on here
I am currently trying it out and its been great!

The only problem I seem to be having is that the game seems keen on booting me out every time I finish a mission.

Do you guys know what I should do about it?
Thanks in advance!

The music is GOAT, fitting in with the space'n steel theme. My fave is "Reinforcements have arrived". Also, one annoying thing is that Allied Craft, as in strike craft, doesn't immediately recall. Also, the Search Team is presented as a question mark. That symbol also is from the VIP in Instant Action, but since it is an ally, Strike Craft should guard it, but noooo...

Hello,I tested the new version for PC and it was great. But for mobile, it doesn't go past this white screen, then the Unity logo stays the same

That's weird, I am not seeing any crashes that could cause this. Can you tell me more about your mobile device?

this is my phone . i try game by another phone″Honor″ but crashed

It looks like it might be Android 13 problem, is your other phone using Android 13 too?

I'm having the exact same issue.

Samsung Galaxy A13 (SM-A137F/DS)

Sorry you are having problems guys, I don't have access to these devices but I will try to look into it.

I can get in touch more quickly to try to fix this on discord @cabulb#3451 if you like

I applied to you in Discord and my name is Amir Maxi

please accept

Just to update on this: the issue seemed to be related to Android 13 and it should be fixed in version 0.6.10. Let me know if you are still having problems, thanks!

Please re-upload the mobile version or the update or the original one because it doesn't work on any phone

Hi, really sorry it's not working for you. It is not possible to guarantee the game is compatible with all android devices. The next update is being planned to be released some time next month. In the mean time, there is also the windows version available :)

ok , thank you

It cannot be installed on mobile

I think this is caused by trying to install when you already have an older, incompatible version installed. You can try to uninstall the old version first, then install the new one.

Look, I've been trying to install it for some time now, but it won't install at all. If you can upload the mobile version again, I really like this game.

Hi I would to say I am having trouble downloading the android version I have tried making space for it and have restarted my device but my phone for some reason is having trouble phrasing the package is there any other way I can try to fix this thank you

Hi, maybe the file is corrupt. You can try to delete the file, download it again and install. Otherwise, the game might be incompatible with your phone. You can try it on windows instead.

I know this game has a problem with either MIUI(Xiaomi and POCO custom version of android) or newer android versions. Does not work with both Xiaomi redmi 6 and POCO f3, old Lenovo tablet(Android 5 ish) installs fine, runs expectadly bad, but runs. Also: Tried 2 times after around a year with redmi 6 and seperate DLs, and redowloaded on POCO too. Not an unknown source or corrupt thing. The error was something in vein of "NAME is not defined" when i tried to install with SAI

Want to play this on Android offline, looks like a good game :)

Exactly, my problem is the same. It says this package does not exist.

The woes of using a Mac is that I cant enjoy this. Sad

Hi, sorry you are not able to play the game. Mac is not currently supported yet, but you can consider playing on an Android device if you have one. You can also try to use Wine for Mac to play the Windows version.

I have to say, this is immensely fun to play. The gameplay is easy to grasp and master, and the visuals are cool even on low settings. However, it does have quite a few bugs (gameplay, some softlocks, etc.), it still in development stage ofc, so that definitely needs to be ironed out. I look forward to see this game developed completely. Some things that could be added at one point is multiplayer, a proper campaign, and an endless survival mode.

Good luck on this project!

Thank you for playing! The game is constantly being worked on, rest assured bugs are being prioritized as soon as they are reported. You can take a look at the progress on bug fixes here https://trello.com/b/iLH9VZyj/salvo-bug-tracker

A bug fix update is coming very soon, thank you for your patience and please stay tuned!

What can I say except I agree!

hey uhh looks like a cool game that I'm willing to try. is there any like system requirements? like how much ram does the game need for PC, etc. also is there any discord that i can join for updates? i have been following this project from twitter.

Hi, thanks for following the game! The current minimum system requirements for the PC demo are:

OS: Windows 10

CPU: Intel Core i5/AMD Ryzen processor (2.4 GHz)

GPU: NVIDIA Geforce 9 series/AMD Radeon HD 7000 series (1GB)

RAM: 8GB

Storage: 2GB


There is no official Discord community yet, it is planned for the future. For now, the dev logs here and posts on twitter will be the latest updates from development.

Hello, been a long time.

What's the update on this project? 🤔🤔🤔

Hi, I have been inactive on social media for a while. The work on the game is continuing normally. 

Since the last update, a new major game mode is being developed. This is not simply just a new mission type, but a series of interconnecting missions with procedural generated elements.

The new game mode is almost feature complete. There will be a devlog to preview how it looks right now and what is in progress faily soon.

Thank you so much for your patience!

Well OK then, glad to hear it.

Kinda hard to stay excited about a project when the Devs go radio silent on you for ages🤔

Looking forward to the preview of the new game mode 😆😆😆

Unable to install on android. Whenever i try to install, it shows unable to parse package.

Hi, did you check your device has permission to install apps from unknown sources? You can find more info in the FAQ. Also what device hardware are you using? It might not be compatible with some devices unfortunately.

Thanks for replying. My device already has permission to install from unknown sources. I am using Realme Gt Neo2 with Android 12 installed.

Normally this error means the apk was corrupted. You can try to download it again. Some other things that might help:

- try disabling your anti virus app

- try restarting your device

Hi i know the fix go and download zarchiver and then install it with zarchiver it worked for me

Thanks! Make sure to check out the latest update :)

I'm hyped for the new updates ^^ 

(Same guy btw just forgot what my acc password is and made a new one) 

well well well. did i struck a gold??

:D

Space fighters are cool

Space+RP+pretty cool battle system = great game 

Great aesthetics, very beautiful to look at. I really liked how detailed the firing animations were and the mobile port. Very good!

Can you add this to pc?

Yes! A PC version is coming soon. In the mean time, you can try it out on PC using an android emulator. There are some suggestions in the FAQs.

Yeah I know, I have used blue stacks before, but I would like to make a vidio on the game, and emulators, games and recordings running at the same time is overwhelming for my pc :)

Since several people have asked for a PC demo, a Windows compatible version is now available. You can now find it in the downloads section. 

Thank you for your feedback!
