Beta 0.5 is now online in its usual place and it includes a very weird surprise as level 2.

Hey guys, in the current beta we have introduced puzzle mechanics (you'll find this in level 2) to exploit further the concept of the dual screen. You can see a bit of it in the video linked.

We are now thinking on ways to expand the dual screen gameplay with more mechanics. We are thinking of course on adding more enemy patterns that force you to switch sides and also connected enemies where one part of the enemy is on one side and the other part is on the other. What would you like to see in a game like this?

We have expanded the team this year and we are collaborating now with 4 artists to make Dimension Drive as great as we can. We're now in the process of completely re-building all the art and graphics.

An example of new concept art by Max Heyder:

Oh this looks awesome!
Be respectful of other developers' time and effort. Treat others fairly and you will be treated fairly in return [...] Keep in mind not all shmup fans share the same tastes. There is room for much more than one kind of shmup in the world.

Looks great. Good luck guys!
You're sure to be in a fine haze about now, but don't think too hard about all of this. Just go out and kill a few beasts. It's for your own good. You know, it's just what hunters do! You'll get used to it.
