cool game, though I'm having trouble with the controls in mobile. the joystick doesn't seem to be as responsive to user input. Improving the controls would make this game way better. Still, good potential to win!
Thanks for your feedback!
I will try my best to improve the controls
I've made some minor changes to the joystick 🕹️
You can check now,if the issue persists please tell me...
I can also share in your excitement, congratulations in creating your first Phaser JS project 🙂
I'm yet to begin mine because I'm having troubles in the world map generation, could you help me with that so I can create a prototype (at least) for the game, please 🙁
(I don't use game engines yet, so it's gonna be built in vanilla JS)
Yes sure can you explain what problems you're facing?
Ok thanks for responding 😅
Firstly, I don't really know how you did your 2D tilemap setup on Phaser JS but I'm trying to put in the tilemap data into 2d arrays for easier storage and rendering rather than using objects in arrays in objects 😢 so I'm trying to implement a system whereby the world map data (2d array) will be updated with the more parts of the world map data as the player moves (more like how Minecraft does chunk loading because the game world doesn't fully load at once) so I'll be active and waiting for your response
So if you need clarification or specific advice, I'm all ears🙂
Oh! I actually didn't use tile maps 😅
I used a jpg image of the map whose parts are scrolled when player moves.
And would you mind sharing your current implementation for the chunk-based tile map system?
So that I can take a closer look?
I'm guessing that Phaser JS helped with the implementation of the infinite scrolling effect
I'll try to refactor the code so I can understand it then I'll send it here. It's basically quite a complex system but I'll see what I can do, hopefully before the end of today
Ok🤩
Hey 👋
The more I tried to learn the camera and tilemap system, the more time flew by so I just had to get to work on my existing knowledge. For now I'll upload the camera tilemap system on GitHub and send the link to you.
So check out what I've managed to accomplish under a full day of active development: dev.to/trplx_gaming/galactic-gunfi...
Camera and tilemap system GitHub repo:

Hey! 👋🏼😊
Congratulations on creating the prototype for galactic gunfire, it's really great!
You could now try adding sprites, instead of squares, that'll make your game complete...
