To all SSC Station occupants

Thank you for the donations over the past year (2024), it is much appreciated. I am still trying to figure out how to migrate the forums to another community software (probably phpbb) but in the meantime I have updated the forum software to the latest version. SSC has been around a while so their is some very long time members here still using the site, thanks for making SSC home and sorry I haven't been as vocal as I should be in the forums I will try to improve my posting frequency.

Thank you again to all of the members that do take the time to donate a little, it helps keep this station functioning on the outer reaches of space.

Hi everyone, I'm the developer of a new sci-fi sim called Starbase Gunship. The iOS version of the game was just launched today on the App Store and we hope to release an Android and PC version within the next month or two. Check out the trailer:

You can grab the iOS version from the App Store.

SolCommand, thanks! This is crazy, I was literally about to use one of your models in this game! I love your work and was thinking about using the Anna-V but went in a different directing in the end.

Nice looking game there CaptialjMedia, and who wouldn't pick this up for .99 🙂

 

Any plans for additional content (ie: areas, enemies, weapons, starbases) and can the attackers try to board the starbase? Where you might have to spend money on marines to keep it safe. Will be nice to see this come to the PC and Android.

 

Also, CaptialjMedia. If you need a forum area to discuss your game I can make one for you no problem as a subforum off of the mobile section, just say the word. I'm asking because I didn't see a forum on your site.

@DarkOne, thanks! Yes lots of plans, of course they kind of depend on how the game does 🙂 So far it's my first game to not even get listed under "New" on the app store, so not going so well (I lost out out a game called "blackjack%", that's right, percentage sign). 

 

Currently there is 1 mission in the game and it features 26 waves of enemies. This takes a while to get through so it's a lot of content, but I would like to add new missions including new bases to defend, and a target practice Asteroid Alley mission. 

 

Great idea about boarding the bases!

 

This game is also part of a larger story that will take place over several games including a strategy game coming out in spring 2013. 

 

Thanks for the forum offer, so far there hasn't been much of a demand for a community but if I find there is then this would be a great place for it!

New update coming soon for Starbase Gunship! For anyone who has completed the first mission, you'll now be able to play 2 new missions and face the powerful Drone Factory Ship. Here's a top secret screenshot:

Not bad. I would enhance the game to make the enemy ships come in from different vectors or headings so that the action is intense and not predictable.

 

I lost interest after ten seconds of just watching the player ship rotate left and right or up and down and shooting missiles and weapons fire at the enemy ships all traveling in a straight line.

 

Perhaps you should place the player inside of a turret on the station where they have to switch turrets in order to defend the station and then have free space fights away from the station.

Would be nice to see this come to the PC or even android since I don't own a apple product 🙂
