Alexa Arcade Skill Commander Speedo

Commander Speedo‘ is a voice controlled shoot em up Arcade Skill for screen based Alexa devices. Your job is to guide Commander Speedo (👩‍🚀) through space to save the universe. Collect all energy gems (💠, 🔶, 💎, …) and hunt the approaching monsters (👾, 🐙, …) before they get you!

Use voice commands like ‘left‘, ‘right‘, ‘up‘, ‘down‘ and ‘fire‘ for navigation.

A level is complete if there are neither gems nor monsters left. Complete the level before running out of time or energy. Receive more energy by collecting blinking gems instead of shooting them. The game is getting faster over time and each level you have to face more approaching monsters.

Voice commands

The skill will try to make sense of what you say but you will have a good start when you stick to the following commands which are straightforward.

  • “go up”
  • “go down”
  • “go left”
  • “go right”
  • “Fire!”
  • “Forward”
  • “Restart!”

Commands can be stacked to command sequences to speed up the game.

Examples:

  • “Fire, Fire, Fire”
  • “Three times Fire”
  • “Two times right, turn up, Fire”
  • “Six time Forward, turn Left, Forward”
