Hello!

This update we've given our attention to feedback about reaching a new high score. We got a pretty decent game (if we say so ourselves), but while it's all about reaching a new high score, there's remarkably little feedback when you finally reach it. So a couple of improvements on that front are due.

First, we made the distinction in color in the current places where you already see the score; the HUD and the pause menu. The the left how you normally see it. And on the right there's the accent color to indicate the good news:

We also show a brief in-world popup on the position of the player, just like how scores are shown on places where ships are destroyed.

Given how quick the popup fades away (and it should, wouldn't want to hinder the player otherwise) the stage transition also reminds you of the fact you got a new high score. We contemplated adding the current score there too, but given how short this transition screen shows, a player simply would not have the time the take it all in.

These changes are available to try out in the latest test version!
