Online skirmishes would add much more value for me than a co-op mode. Of course that would require much more work and may be unfeasible. This game looks good. It will probably be a first few days buy.
First of all, I want to congratulate you for what looks to be an awsome game. Thanks a lot for all the effort. Now, correct me if wrong but when the creatures attack each other, there is no special animation sequence where you see them attack each other. One of my favorite games of all time which you might know is master of monsters. The fight sequences were one of the highlights and I'm sure you could achieve something similar with your game. Any chance you might add a feature like this? Here is a link to MoM http://dorando.emuverse.com/html/master-of-monsters.html
... + 2 does no one ever credit fire emblem anymore? it'd be great with animations, but i can live without them. I think i need to make a fire emblem awareness thread...
That is not planned. But you already have the team mode in online matches and the campaigns are really meant to teach you all the tricks of the game in a single player mode.
There are animations for all attacks but they happen on the map itself, not on a separate screen. We opted not to have a different screen for attacks to keep the focus on the strategy part of the game and to avoid cutting each move with a lengthy animation sequence that would kind of pause the action of the game itself. Remember that you can play up to 20 games in parallel with friends and so you may not want to have each move interrupted by long animation sequences (though we have pretty cool animations happening on the map itself - and you can disable them too).
ahhhh this looks so good it was submited on the 6th right? insta purchase for me urgh......hurry up apple
Yeah, but the question is if it will play on 2.2.0? Many users (such as myself) are staying on 2.2.0 to retain the ability to unlock their iphones (which is removed in 2.2.1). A few games were released recently which only worked on 2.2.1, but were later quickly fixed to allow 2.2.0 as well - there is no technical reason that I know of that a game needs to be restricted to 2.2.1.
There is no technical reason why we need 2.2.1. I think it may be possibly mandated by Apple at this point but I am not sure. I'll double check and get back to you on this. One thing we want to avoid though is piracy because it is expensive to operate a server, especially if half of the players have not paid for the app.
UniWar - Approved for Sale Good news tonight: the UniWar app has been approved by Apple for sale. Its status is now READY FOR SALE and it should start showing up on the AppStore as early as tomorrow morning!!!
Now that you're into the strategy game market you should make a fire emblem type game. I like advance wars type games like this, but a game like fire emblem has so much depth cuz of the character development and attachment to characters you don't want to let die
I have a question about the online play Why are there people in the top players list already with 100 wins?
