Email sent; I'm eager to try this out after seeing the youtube vids.

[Koliup]

This looks like it has some real potential to it. I'll be watching, and waiting for a beta, very carefully.
This game reminds me of the idea of a 2d topdown game where you make spaceships I had a while back. But this is great, too.
splad, what are you going to do with boarding pods, ship collisions, and planets?

The forums are now live!

I should have made forums before posting a video that made so many people email me and ask questions but hey, they ignored my previous videos so who could have guessed?

I feel I must ask, how does one actually move one's ship?

If your in the control, WASD, if your in the starter ship, right click to go to the top left corner, where you see 2 consoles, and go to the one marked by the letter N.

Anyways, anyone want to do a multiplayer game now? The instructions on how to do so are on the website, and it would be interesting to try

If you could get the server set up, I would gladly give it a whirl.

[werty892]

I cant, but I was hoping someone who could port forward try

Ah, port forwarding. My only one of many weakness... Some other time then, once I figure out how to forward my ports.

[GlyphGryph]

I'd be up for a game. Let me do eet.

Someone will have to send me a link to copy of the game though.

I've sent the email, so hopefully soon...

Godspeed, brave Glyph. By which I mean I am eagerly waiting for the IP.

Spoiler: My current ship design (click to show/hide)

Only problem is it doesn't work.  The shields are powered fine, and all the capacitors power up, but after that reactor power drops to zero and nothing gets powered on.  Any ideas?

[USEC_OFFICER]

From what I understand about the game (which is very little), the greyish nubs on the modules are what you need to connect for power, so you can't have a conduit ending at a random spot at a module.

Spoiler: Probably shows it better then I can explain (click to show/hide)

I had the exact same problems until I hooked up my power-lines to those things. Hopefully that was it and not something else.

I'm down for a game. I've got some weird ship in the works that sacrifices speed and armour for shields and big guns. But right now I'm having to grind in order to afford another reactor. Power draw is still too high, even with the whimpy engines

[GlyphGryph]

So do we both crew the same ship on multiplayer, or both have our own? I assume we crew the same ship and I won't need to design one?

[Cthulhu]

That was indeed it.

In case anyone missed it, you can type in tacotaco as your profile name to increase your funds.  You don't have to make your actual name tacotaco though, it will delete the name and let you type a new one.

I'm hosting a game right now with my now working ship.  It's fast but not very maneuverable, and its frontal armor is extremely heavy.  If you just try to bust it head on it'll probably win.

I'm not sure how hosting works yet, try 74.215.200.100 for the IP, and default port.

@GlyphGryph:  As far as I know multiplayer crews aren't implemented yet.  You'll need to bring your own ship.

[GlyphGryph]

108.7.72.89 is the IP. Feel free to join, if it works.

Edit: Actually, nevermind. I'll try to join Cthulhu's game.

Conversation initiated, but nothing else is happening? Want to hop onto the darkmyst #bay12lb IRC? I don't know if chat is in game yet, but we can talk over pm chat.
