Hallo there!!
It's Shinu Real Arts, the solo dev of Wings Of Bluestar and I4m really excited to announce that the game is finally released today.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1088 ... _Bluestar/
Since a game is never finished, I'll be counting on your feedback to keep improving the game, even after release. Thanks in advance!!
The game was a work of passion to me and just being able to release it is an old child dream coming true.
Here are the contents the game offers:
- 8 stages, each around 5 mins long, plus the boss fight.
- Single player.
- Local two players.
- A story mode that players like a short visual novel between stages, offers dialog choices and lead to different endings.
- A training mode, where you can practice stages you already reached.
- A boss rush mode, where you can fight against bosses you already reached under a timer.
- A Game shop, in which you can purchase new credits and unlock new bonus features.
- 90 trophies.
- A lot of gallery artworks to unlock using the game money.
- A sound test where you can enjoy the game's osts.
- Modern gamepads (Xbox and Dualshock) support with key mapping.
Thanks a lot and hope I can count on your support!

I picked this up over the weekend so I look forward to giving it a shot. Congratulations on the release; I've been watching it come together for over a year now.

Looks to be getting a Switch release in a few weeks.
I had bought the game on Steam but didn't end up playing it much, as there were some bugs, technical issues, separate builds to try out...it was a bit of a hassle. Hopefully all of that has been sorted out.

No matter how good a game is, somebody will always hate it. No matter how bad a game is, somebody will always love it.

Sadly, it still doesn't seem to be the case. Played the Xbox version of it recently. And it still seems to have the issues that plagued the PC/Steam version. (Text issues and gameplay bugs/glitches encountered. Can't check the Switch version, cause I don't have that.)Ghegs wrote:Looks to be getting a Switch release in a few weeks.

Re: Wings Of Bluestar Just released to Steam
Got this for the XBOX Series X and I've found some problems there:
1.- Enemies being killed by the stage hazards on stages 3, 4 and 5 (I could say the game is playing fair in terms of "If player dies crashing, so the enemies").
2.- Saving the game story and resuming the game later sends you without power ups and your score resetted to nothing.
3.- The worst of all was that the Stage 6 boss is indestructible, 'cos I've destroyed all of the worm's destructible parts and it doesn't go down. I've tried to destroy the chutes where the worm emerges, but is useless, all you can do is to survive until the timer runs out.
4.- Stage 6 "Clear without using credits" award is broken.
Wings of Bugstar indeed.
UPDATE (Jan 30th, 2023): Found EVEN MORE problems on the Series X port.
5.- If you're playing Story Mode with Zarak and after leaving the game you pick Arcade Mode by mistake, the game will think you've been playing with Aya 'cos she's the default option.
6.- Looks like Patema Bonus in stage 8 is quite broken, sometimes the game gives you the second panel and others don't.
7.- Thought flaw #3 was bad? Check this out. When you reach the final boss, the game will crash.
LESSON HERE: Test your game before releasing it.
