We’re taking part in #loveindies week! If you’ve enjoyed any of our games and want to give a brief impression, or even just a thumbs up, that’s a really big deal to us. If you feel the burning need to go in there and warn folks off of one of our titles, that’s of course…
Release notes here. Lots of happiness in this one! So first, a picture for you: I have absolutely hated how the forcefields looked in this game ever since the start. I’ve kept working on new versions, but never was happy with them. Thanks to work by Oranged Keys, we’ve finally got a version that makes me go ooh! As…
Are you a programmer interested in helping out on a multithreading issue? Be sure to see the bottom (or this forum thread). Case Study of Modding: Marauders Before talking about the release or multithreading, this is a great time to talk about the power that our Modder #1 (and volunteer developer to boot), Badger, has been…
Release notes here. This week hasn’t exactly gone as I expected, but it’s been very productive. I had planned on working on the lobby, first of all, but then some performance-unfriendly saves came to light and I decided I’d work on that instead. The biggest hog in large battles is the vis-layer movement of ships around,…
Release notes here. We remain back on a quicker release schedule, now that we’re past that initial hump of the pivot. At this point there’s a fair bit to clean up, though, so I’ve been focusing on that instead of heading straight for the lobby revamp. I’m pleased with the progress that we’re seeing, based largely on…
Release notes here. Expect more frequent releases again, now that we’re past that initial hump of getting the pivot in a functional and basically-fun state. This build is on the smaller side, but includes a lot of interesting stuff nonetheless. There are a variety of bugfixes and usability improvements based on feedback from Badger, Ovalcircle, and dv…
Release notes here. Wheeew! This one is massive. It’s been almost two months since our last release, and it shows. Here are some highlights of what’s new: The first two (out of five) waves of the pivot are done. As part of that, you’ll notice that the game feels way more like the Classic experience, and…
Release notes here. Surprise! The soundtrack is here. 🙂 For all kickstarter and backerkit backers with that as a reward, you should have an email now with the link to download it, or you can log in here to download it: https://aiwar2.backerkit.com/ For everybody else, these tracks are now a part of the game in general and…
Release notes here. Not sure why I went with a Dexter reference, but the new Dark Spire faction certainly are murderous. Thanks once again goes to Badger for implementing yet another faction into the game. Holy smokes this guy is on fire. The Dark Spire are a bit more involved this time around, which is quite…
Release notes here. The entire soundtrack for the game has been completed, although only the first half of it has been mastered so far. That half is now in place in the game, comprising 6 new tracks. Overall the new soundtrack pieces are about an hour in length, adding to something like 15 minutes of music…
