    I would like a video showing some of the AMAZING stuff you showed like:
    Racing with cars, Exploring with spaceship, Different weapons, Exploring in general (mining?), Different vehicles etc.

    This game is really coming along nicely any ETA in the horizon? :D

    Gameplay?

    I am an extremely big JTS fan:)

    and i have a question.

    will a lot of the game be staged? like you go to a planet for a certain level and then it will trigger an event, you are given a quest and have to go to another planet after fighting some aliens.

    Or will it be you independently in this universe with several different factions competing for planets? for example you manipulate a factions leader into going to war against another faction, and then while traveling through space you witness space battles with a variety of ships that belong to the warring faction taking place in areas between the enemies planets? and perhaps you could interfere on these. In other words will this universe be a giant playground with realistic warring factions hidden with clues that lead you to your lost race.

    Or will this be a level by level campaign.
    As long as you are making it either way it will be great but I'd greatly prefer to see the playground.

    Glad to hear that :)

    Well the game is an open universe game, so you fly where you want do what you want once you have reached far enough in the game to have your own spaceship. Ultimately there is a ton of freedom, most of the fun will be from using the tools and contraptions we've developed in creative ways.

    People on planets offer you missions, interacting with different alien races and making your way closer to finding your friends. There are also side activities like taxi missions, there are random events like space battles etc.

    Its really a unique experience, especially on the iphone.

    There ARE weapons right? So you can attack random people on planets?
    Also, there are physics eh? Wouldn't be surprised. After a masterpiece like Plunderlands..

    Anywhom

    Sorry for my cascade of comments, but PLEASE don't make IAP's, like, maybe Gold IAP's but not planet or equipment IAP's. It ruins the game!

    Also, whats the ETA price/release?

    Yes to all.

    Also I wrote the physics engine myself (same with Plunderland) So its got that unique feel. But this time the physics are more advanced.

    There are quite a few things in this game Ive never seen in a game, definitely not on iphone.

    Thanks for the enthusiasm!

    FILMING STARTS TODAY :D

    Will probably release a series of videos, this one will be a broad look at how the game plays and the technology. Not so much focused on explaining but just showing how smooth and interactive the open universe is.
