    Definitely a "spiritual successor to Uridium" on the C64. I composed the music and sfx for this little gem of a game, and it was a great project to be part of. Also the dev is one splendid chap.

    (Note my credit in the first trailer is incorrect - should be @FracturesAudio - incase anyone wants to follow me on the Twitterings / use me for their project/s)

    Whoa, this looks great! With the rotating space stations, it also has a pixelly "2001 A Space Odyssey" vibe to it. Really looking forward to playing it!

    Beautiful trailer and oh, not this week.
    My money is ready. How much is it?
    **doesn't care really**

    Hopefully there are two sensitivity sliders for the great music and sfx sounds in the options. Again for me, the music was too loud compared to the sfx. It really is far off to be a standard in todays developing. **crosses fingers**

    Thanks! \o/

    No music slider sorry. I think Fractures would kill me :)

    The music in-game isn't as loud in the mix. It's turned up to KICK ASS for the trailer.

    Decided on the price yet? Also, I'm led to believe it's still iPhone-only for now, right?

    Are there audio options (mute music, keep effects) in the game? That feature would be much appreciated.

    Either way, this looks grand. Really looking forward to release. Rock on.

    Hi!

    Yep. iPhone for now but the game runs just fine on iPad actually. In fact a lot of my gameplay videos are captured on my iPad. It's just that it's not a universal app yet. Looks great on iPad scaled.

    As for sound and music options. Yep you can mute both separately :)

    Roll on Tuesday.
