Sandigma is still under development right now. Hopefully we can make a test-run in Oct 2015. The exact release date is not decided yet. You can see more details in the first youtube video we posted.
I agree , Bug heroes 2 is a great example of that , as long as it does not have energy bar , timer and most importantly internet is required to play . Other than that , this game will receive well by all the ios hardcore gamer out there.
The stories will be unlocked by the fragments collected by the players. These stories are accessible to all the players. Well, we might consider publishing a book of those stories. We don't deny the possibility of that.
Yes, Sandigma requires constant internet connection. The max off-internet tolerance is about 1 minute.
Currently we have two characters available. You've seen the girl. And there's also a boy character. In the future, it's very likely that we will release even more playable characters.
