Hello TIG!
I'm Jeno and am a co-developer of a recent space game called SpaceBit. I do most of the item art as well as some sounds. This week, I also joined Ben, the project lead, with the programming. SpaceBit is a top down survival game in which you do much more than just fend off the zombie hordes at night.
Currently, there is an extensive resource mining and item crafting system in place. You can also create a spaceship and conquer other, completely different, randomly generated worlds. If you are interested, definately check out the recently revamped website:
http://www.spacebitz.com ! And now that the exams of myself and our new lead artist are over, spacebit's progress should skyrocket! In fact, there is already multiplayer implemented, but we have some small kinks in the cable to solve. However, LAN play Should actually work. In the very near future we will also implement building construction as well as advanced AI enemies that do what you want. Ben is a madman and works on spacebit like 15 hrs a day, and that's not an exaggeration! Because of this, progress has always been really fast, with new updates pretty much every day on our own updater service, available only to those who buy directly from us, on the website. Check out
http://www.youtube.com/superjeno for some videos on spacebit, detailing how to play the game. For general questions, we welcome everyone to our forums over at
http://spacebitz.forum.net.bz/ . For more personal questions, our email :
[email protected] is monitored almost 24/7 (european and australian hours). And lastly, you can read the reviews over on
http://www.desura.com/games/spacebit/ and
http://www.gameaspect.com/2012/05/spacebit-preview.html ,If you won't take my word for it
. However, if you wish to support us the best, you might better refrain from buying on Desura, since we don't get almost half of the money you pay... And recently, we have also submitted to indievania.com, but we've yet to be approved there. Anyway, I hope I can call many of you spacebittians soon!
Take care,
Jeno
