1.3.1 update was released. * Added continue of main plot after the destroying of the DeepWalkers Base, new characters, new quests * Fixed iPad3,4 crashes * Fixed item count alert while throw or sell * Attention! New weapon slot system (by slot size) * Added Laceus - new DeepWalker ship, stealth modules for DeepWalkers, Black Dogs ships with teleport modules * Added boosters and special services in Solomon's Store(SS) * Added updatable DEV DIARIES
This looks awesome. Definitely will pick it up and give it a try once at home. Impressions: I like it. I've played all tutorial missions to get the hang of the game and so far, it looks like it has a lot of potential. I'll dive into the actual game shortly but I can already tell I will enjoy it. Will definitely donate if I keep playing it and leave the dev a review since it doesn't look like anyone has yet.
If you really like it and - the best donate will be english-review for this game posted here in User reviews sections.
Space Story became free for a limited time. reviews from App Store Great Game! by TDrang I have looked for a game like this for a long time. It fits the niche perfectly. My only compliant is there are some minor language(english) errors. The creator is Russian so this is understandable. Overall however this is a very addictive and fun game. Fantastic game! by Dugsteroma Wonderful concept. Developer is constantly improving and takes stock in what it's users have to say. I highly recommend! Decent by Layroh The best 2d space sandbox game I've found on ios. I looked for a long time for a "escape velocity" type game and am happy with this one.
What means free session? It's 1.79 for me. And what is the difference between Space Story (paid) and Space Story: Alliance (free)?
According to App Shopper, it's free atm. I can't check it in the app store because I have it installed. Space Story is a space adventure game in the line of Flatspace: mine resources, go to planets, take missions, etc. The "Alliance" one is -I think- a survival game set in the Space Story universe. You have to survive oncoming waves of enemies. It's been a few weeks since I last played Space Story, but it's got a permanent space in my phone. I think it's a great game, albeit its English is not great, mainly because the dev is Russian. Nothing that affects gameplay, mind. Perfectly understandable as it is.
The game usually is free for a short period of time, may be you checked it too late. Space Story - it's an RPG-game, full space, characters, quests, etc... Like Freelancer, but in another view - from the top like russian Space Rangers. Space Story: Alliance - it's a Tower-Defense style game. You have the planet and above 110 waves of different enemies and you have to defend the planet. All the elements of original game, over 15 ships to buy, many weapons, equipments, etc...
We seem to have some hidden gems here. Played the tutorials and some missions of each game. I don't understand correctly. Maybe it's me but please be precise: Are the in-app purchases for real money needed to complete the game or not? I have the feeling that you added the IAPs later and didn't change the gameplay/difficulty at this point. So your IAPs are kind of a strictly optional cheating mode, aren't they? If that's true I'd recommend your games. Very recommended! For how long exactly? I would like to write a review and suggest your games, but this makes only little sense when the sale is over within less than 12 hours. My advice (I'm not a developer/publisher but I have some experiences with iOS App Store and sales/freebies): Please keep your freebie periods up for at least 72 hours/3 days (even better: five to eight days) because the news need some time to go around this little world (with different time zones etc ). Not so often (every 23 months will be fine or even more) but for longer periods each sale. Thanks in advance. And thanks for the freebies. They seem to be great games. Space shooters with lots of options and strategies. Nice action. Something different anyway.

Hi! The answer is No! I have over 1000 players, who already passed the game, the main story part (killing the Deepwalkers beacon and as I call it "Episode 1", additional story that was added in update 1.3.1) and paid nothing. Ores, money, even coins can be gathered in the game for free. The main question about the coins - how to get them? Because you need them to open the next main scenario part. There are several quests in the game (usually they have numbers, like p.1, p.2, then you finish the last part of this quest group - you always get the coins). And the last update added an ability to convert ore to coins on your own space station. Of course, it's rather difficult to collect money to buy it, but anyone could! You are absolutely right. And not only IAPs, almost each update added something new to the game. "Episode 1" as I said before was added in 1.3.3. And I have a very big additional stories Ep.2-.... that would be added soon. I don't want to lie, of course, then I added IAP I had to make the game harder to play. But I always test it by myself to check that the game could be passed with no IAPs. Usually from Friday to Sunday, free days (but by Moscow time, there is a 12-14hrs difference with US time). I wrote you a PM. If you write a review - it would be great!!!!! My strategy is simple - every week from Friday to Sunday. But next week I will try you advice, make the game free for a whole week!
If you need help with English localization and UI design, I'd be willing to help. I'm a writer and I have game design/art experience.
Thank you, NaughtHere. Im sorry to answer you so late, but I saw your message only now. Now we are working on full UI redesign, there will be a new version with absolutely new interface. About English localization - do you have an experience in Russian language? And is English language your native language?
