What's New in AlienSwarms
3.0
July 8, 2026
This update is a significant content and stability release for AlienSwarms, an arcade swarm-shooter. Key changes reviewers may want to be aware of: - New Game Over presentation: A fireworks celebration (with accompanying sound effects) now plays when the player beats their high score. - In-App Purchase ("Remove Ads"): Fixed a bug where the purchase button's confirmation UI (text change + disabled state) wasn't updating correctly on device after a successful purchase — the purchase itself was always processing correctly, only the visual confirmation was affected. Also removed an unintended gameplay perk that let Remove Ads purchasers use a "one more life" ad-reward mechanic without needing to purchase it separately. - Rewarded ads: Fixed a bug where the "watch an ad to continue" flow could skip its Yes/No confirmation prompt and play the ad directly. Players are now always asked before a rewarded ad plays. - Gameplay stability: Fixed several bugs affecting score tracking, high score display, and a special in-game "ritual" encounter (a scripted enemy formation sequence) that could occasionally get stuck. - Visual update: Enemies and the player ship received a visual refresh (added facial details, a light-up accent belt on the player). - Additional polish and bug fixes, including improved hit feedback, smoother audio, and a fix to the Reset Best Score option so it takes effect immediately. No new permissions, frameworks, or third-party SDKs were added in this release. Existing App Tracking Transparency, Unity Ads, and Unity IAP integrations are unchanged in terms of data collection — this release only touches gameplay/UI logic around them.
