    This game just keeps getting better and better. I don't think anybody who played ever found the IAPs to be necessary, but one way to really make believers out of people who have been stung by other games is to do exactly what the Dev did. The fact that they could simply remove the IAPs without rebalancing any part of the game should be pretty darn convincing for anybody who is still on the fence. I hope Alien Tribe gets some legs now; it deserves it.

    Can you pause and issue orders?

    Thanks a lot ! We need any review. And we still haven't been covered by any of the big sites like TouchArcade. :(

    That seems odd, particularly considering the load of tier 2 game reviews that I've seen recently (as if they ran out of A-list games or something). Alien Tribe 2 is unique enough that you'd think they'd at least be curious about it.

    Never say never. We actually started testing if AT2 works on the iPhone. And with the larger iPhone 6 displays I am sure that it it playable. But it will take some time because we only want to release it if it is at least as good as on the iPad.

    Yes you can pause. But what do you mean with issue orders?

    Good news: We are now officially working on the iPhone version of Alien Tribe 2! This will take some time until it is finished...

    Great news for a great game! I am really curious about the iPhone version. Will it be an universal app or a separate app for the iPhone? Any new features planned for the new version?

    It will be an universal app and we try to add some new features. Right now we are really successful in the German App Store, we are in the Top 10 in Games / Strategy und Simulation!:)

    We are making good progress and we are happy right now because the iPad version is doing really well in a few countries. I think mid August / end of August is realistic for the iPhone version. If anybody wants to beta test the iPhone version please let us know.

    Endless Mode

    Hi all,

    some people think, the game should have an 'endless mode'. What do you think about it?
    Can it bring fun with this type of game or would it be more boring to play without objective. And longer gameplay and more starsystems will bring a greater amount of simultanious working game objects (more weapons platforms, and so on).
    This could affect the framerate of course...

    Please tell me what you think about this.
    Stefan

    I think an endless mode would be cool. Have you ever thought about changing the default difficulty level to "Normal" instead of "Easy"? If you start a new game the default level is "Easy".

    Hi Valkyre,

    the difficulty level 'easy' seemed to me the best choice for first time players.

    To the 'endless mode': We got some interesting ideas for this new mode. One of them is the option to continue gameplay when you build the Ark. We play with the thought to give the player the option to leave some Population on the planets to continue playing.

    Sounds interesting?

    Yes the endless mode sounds interesting but I think playing with a reduced population is a huge handicap for the player and I would prefer a different solution. The best choice for first time players is to play the tutorial ;)
