OMFG SPAMMER!@

Kidding, kidding...

Looks interesting, but the site seems really bogged down at the moment. I can't get any of the videos to download, and the music takes forever to load.

If you had a streaming setup, where you can just have it play on th site instead of launching a new window, that would be a lot more convenient.

I watched the trailer, and it looks like it has great production values. Very impressive.

Thank you all for your feedback. Its not for nothing. So, by the way the "difficult controlling of the game" was already changed a bit since the last prototype, the game is not as hard as before, and theres another fly mode, if you enable it pressing "N" key you can fly in ABSOLUTE mode, that means if you press the "upkey" "W" you dont fly in the direction the ship looks, you fly directly top, even if this is on the right side of the ship couse your ships aiming to the left side and so on. disable it with "M" if you want to fly in normal mode. I think normal mode is cool but you have to fly some minutes to learn it.

about the downloads, im going check this out now, its possible a lot of people download this stuff right now, and maybe its to much for my already 2 sponsored servers. anyway, you can see videos in youtube:

if you want to do us a flavor just post a reply or give the trailers some STARS more ;)

looking forward to read your first flythrough the demo reports. And i realy hope some of you maybe want to produce music with our team.

by the way, we are at the games convention in leipzig, from 22-23 august, in germany.

greetings

Hello!
we still need more music. where can i post some topic about that? Our game will have a playtime above 10 hours, so even more then 10 tracks we already have will be not more than a minimum. Somebody wants to join us? Maybe its another feeling working on a really new soundtrack and not on a remix.
Anyway, just contakt me, i try to open some topic here if i find the right place for.
kontakt@freakwave.de

greetings
