Hello again.  Before we put Hyper Spacey on the store we would like more levels.  If you want to help us you can.  Our levels are generated from a spreadsheet we created that is then read into the code.  You can create a level by opening a spreadsheet editor like excel(doesn’t matter which program) and follow some basic rules.  The grid cannot be smaller than 7×7 or bigger than 11×11.  To indicate where a blackhole is located on the grid just put the letter b in the cell within that grid where you want it to exist.  A legend will be provided so you know what to type for different nodes.

Check out the example spreadsheet below

e     =   end planet

s     =   start asteroid

m   =   middle asteroid

w# =   wormhole(remember that wormholes come in pairs)

b    =    blackhole

Download our template file for a quick start and open it in your spreadsheet editor.  Then build your level.  Next, list out the steps to win.  For instance to beat the example level above the steps to win would be; down, right, up, left.  Once you have done all that just save your file as .csv and email us a copy at hello@koldapps.com.

If this all seems to hard for you or you don’t have a way to make a spreadsheet, sketch your idea onto a napkin or your face, whatever works and email us a pic of your artwork  at hello@koldapps.com.

Can’t wait to see what you come up with.  Cheers and thank you.

Hello and thanks for your help.  We appreciate your willingness to help test our first game.  We will be pushing updates periodically and hopefully we can have the game up on the store by January.  If you have any feedback shoot us an email at hello@koldapps.com or through the “send feedback” link in the Testflight app(to be a tester you will need to download this app).
