    You can invade other planets, but it will vary in difficulty. For Example this city planet will be well protected with armed forces, police and turrets to stop anyone including you causing too much mayhem. But there are other less defended planets.

    One thing is I dont want the player to feel super powerful from the start, but to acquire power and understanding as the game progresses.

    Development update

    Hey Guys, sorry about the media blackout lately we have been working hard.

    Things have come together, I can report big new features in sound. We are creating our own dynamic music in game so we can have lovely soundscapes for each planet and flying in space, with less file size and more variety and nuance than traditional methods. Ultimately, richness in sound matching our gameplay and visuals

    Should mean a full experience!

    I have also included Vehicle Racing and our content is coming together for the first release! It is in sight!


    Here is a nice detail shot for you. Sorry I keep killing the layout, is there a way to scale down the images?

    Go to tinypic.com and upload the image. Then, click the arrow down thing for "Resize" and you should see the option for "Message Board (640x480)", click that one. And then, press upload. Copy the url for "IMG Code for Forums & Message Boards".

    This should be the result:

    Hey, so it's been mentioned that we will be able to invade other planets - and you mentioned that some will have defenses to prevent anyone being a nuisance.

    Does that mean that in the environment we will be able to see NPCs invade planets?

    This is possible, there may be circumstances where you can help defend

    This game looks great. I loved the use of the touch controls in Plunderland, so I'm quite excited for this one, seeing as it seems to be bigger and better than the previous game in every way.

    DEVELOPMENT PROGRESS - first release details

    Thanks guys, pleased to hear youre excited for the game!

    I dont want to spoil the game by going in to all details, but know that those cool things you hope for, will be in the game. If not all in the first release, we will be listening to feedback, seeing what people like and want more of or new ideas.

    The first release will be the first galaxy, then we will be adding more galaxies in updates to progress the story and push the gameplay further. There is so much potential for gameplay its hard to know where to stop, but we have worked out the first release and are working on getting it all in and polished for that.

    Im thinking for the next video a tour of the first civilised planet we have seen screenshots of? Good idea? Show some space travel to, so people can see how seamless and expansive the game is, especially compared to what people expect of iPhone games.

    When we get around to testing at some point ill come on here and look for those who volunteered. I appreciate the offers.

    I'm just looking forward to seeing more of this game, and a tour of the first civilised planet will do just fine.
    I'll volunteer for testing. :p

    Add me to the list of hopefuls for a beta test. :rolleyes:

    You say the initial release will have one galaxy - how many planets will that be?
