Galaxial

Hey everyone, just thought I would post this here rather than create a new topic... I'm really sorry for my absence and the lack of monthly development logs recently. I've had quite a rough Summer due to a whole range of personal stuff, so development had to take a back seat for a few months. I will...

Actually... One thing that I noticed and wonder about right now is how smaller ships behave with bigger ones. On provided screenshoots we all see small ships to circle around bigger ones. Was that done on purpose of those screenshoots only? Or is that general behavior of smaller ships when in same ...

Welcome to the Galaxial development log for April! With planets now having up to 19 tiles for building placement... the colony graphics have now been updated so you can see straight away how many each planet has and what is built there (without going into the more detailed colony interface screen) h...

Welcome to the Galaxial development log for March! ...it's a bit late this month due to having some time off over Easter. I wasn't quite happy with how the colony buildings system worked previously, so the past month has been spent improving, adding more depth, planet randomization and decision maki...

Not at the moment I'm afraid. I have a lot going on development wise (that I cant talk about), so am currently very busy with that.

No promises! I will see how it goes... the final amount could be reduced or some factions postponed to be added later.

And since we are talking here about factions... How many of them do you plan to implement? There are 10 factions planned and partially implemented at the moment. However, this could change by release... The factions planned are all Human, but Alien races could possibly be added later on through upd...

Those are some nice looking ships there :) I personally like the last "arrow" one :) Thanks :) The last one it would be good to have a faction using that theme and style. As for making unique ships per faction - why not go third way... Make all ships that are "baseline" to be sh...

Welcome to the Galaxial development log for February! Here are screenshots of some of the new ships I've been making this month. The graphics are created in the default white/grey color but the hull, turret, engine and trail colors can be customized in game. http://galaxial.com/Screenshots/Forums/De...

Also looking forward to playing this! One question: Can you provide the names of the ambient soundtrack you are using in your youtube videos or maybe even are already implemented in the game? f.e. here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o20NpIg_MCg or here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OaTh8skX_N0...

not to be mean, but galaxial is very obscure to my knowledge, dont count on being able to sustain yourself until proven I kinda prefer it not being well known at this point, considering how long games like this take to make... especially for a solo developer. People lose interest. Given the choice ...

for example for afterburners a modifier that changes them from being continous and "low" impact to being pulsed and high powered. or provides (partial) immunity to movement imparing effects at the expense of the main afterburner. basically not just boni, but function altering modifiers. T...

Welcome to the Galaxial development log for January! I had a few weeks break from working on the game over Christmas and New Years, so decided not to do one for December. Apologies if you visited the forums last month expecting one. Module Tiers Modules that can be added to ship designs come in one ...

Thanks everyone for the comments :thumbup You can not assume blindly that revenue from buyers will be good eoungh for you to stop any other earning activity. Better play it safe, and do not make risky decisions without making sure that risk is somewhat limited and that there is PLAN B just in case. ...

Autocannon's in the game will work like real life kinetic type weapons, like a repeating artillery cannon that shoots projectiles and costs no energy to fire... so lead or explosive shells would be the most fitting description out of those.
