<r>Thank you, friken! It is indeed fun to make a brickfilm, but it takes a whole lot of time. I need 5-6 months for the completion of a 20 minutes movie (like the first one I linked). Sometimes it is not just to film a scene, you sometimes reshoot it because either it is shaky or you got an idea how ...

<r>Used 3 and half inch high action figures, ones with articulated joints and did some in plasticine. I see. Was it something like that: <YOUTUBE id="K4QPnDyh5lM"><s>[media]</s>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K4QPnDyh5lM<e>[/media]</e></YOUTUBE> It is really amazing how this guy could animate the ...

<r>Thank you very much, Pinback! You are absolutely right, Stop Motion looks simple but takes really a lot of time. Sometimes, you need a week for only a few seconds. I need around 5-6 months until one movie of 20 minutes is complete, including animations, sounds, speech, texts and music. But it is ...

<r>Hi everyone,some of you may know me as the progammer of "Cosmic Explorer". However, a while ago I discovered a new hobby: Stop Motion with Lego bricks or brickfilms in short. So for all who are fond of space exploration similar to STAR TREK, I created the series FUTURE BRICKS, showing the ...

One thought on something that just came up. I know you can set this in the options, but in the in-game events that happen when you fly or leave stations. How come the negative events seem to really come up more than the positive? Or the negative events seem to ...

<t>Hi people,just a little information that a new version of Cosmic Explorer is available. In version 1.41a, this is new: The headquarter is not a building somewhere any more but a large cruiser which your boss uses to travel with you to the unexplored galaxy. From there, you will start your ...

<t>Hi people,after some rework and testing rounds, I can now proudly present version 1.40a of Cosmic Explorer! These are the changes for this version: Additionally to the 4 artefacts you can now search a "mystical alien module" in each sector, providing a feature to expand the functionality of your ...

<r>Hi DarkOne,thanks for the first review! Here are my answers:- Sector 2 is a part of the galaxy, which is divided into 4 sectors numbered from left to right: You start in sector 1 top left, then sector 2 is top right, sector 3 is bottom left and sector 4 bottom right. I think I will have to make ...

<t>Hi people,the development of "Cosmic Explorer" continues! Here are the changes for this version:- Changed surface landscape view: Now you can see a real landscape instead of the top-view created by patterns.- City icons on the surface are also more realistic now.- The navigator module shows all ...

Hi people,now there is a quick update for Cosmic Explorer:- You will now really get your payment when you completed a transport order- Some settings of a saved game were not displayed after loading- Added option for game run in a window (not full screen)- Some minor bugfixesHave fun!SpaceRider

<t>Hi folks,a new version of the game is ready and this time there are some important changes:+ You have to find 4 artefacts, each in one of the 4 sectors, not only just one.+ You can accept transport orders.+ You can use a navigator module to find a star system on the star map.- You cannot call the ...

<t>Hi RotationVector,you might want to take a look on "Serpens Sector":[url]http://www.metalbeetle.com/spaceexploration/[/url] did not try it myself yet but it looks like an interesting space exploration and research game. It is Java-based and seems not to need a powerful graphics card ...

<t>Hi people,one of the most realistic Sci-Fi games for the 8bit Homecomputers (ATARI, Commodore) was "The Halley Project":The mission was simple: The player has to travel to various bodies of the solar system during a certain time span. Interestingly, the distances were quirte realistic, the star ...

<t>Hi guys,I think I got it! Some panels went out of view because the system text size was set to "Medium" (120 dpi) instead of "Small" (96 dpi). So I redesigned the main window with 120 dpi in a way that it looks fine even with 96 dpi. Consequently, the resolution selection is obsolete now and the ...

<t>Hi Slare, Darkone,thanks for your resolution problem reports. It is really a very mysterious problem because I have ATI graphics cards only and never had such an issue. It really seems to be a graphics driver effect. But Slare's screenshot helped me a lot so I changed the 1024 x 768 pixels modus ...

<t>Hi Grimm,I am glad to hear you enjoyed Cosmic Explorer.Sorry to disappoint you, but I do not plan to include a fighting system. The focus of this game is exploration and relaxed gaming, which means you can play it at the end of a work day or during a break or just occasionally whenever you like ...

Hi people,another little update for Cosmic Explorer is ready!* 10 new city descriptions* 10 new alien descriptions* Some minor bugfixes and enhancementsHave fun!RegardsSpaceRider

<t>Hi people,one of the best ATARI 2600 space games (for me) was "Cosmic Ark":Your mission was to save animals from planets of a dying galaxy. There were two stages: At first, you had to shoot asteroids during your flight to prevent collisions, and at second you had to fly over a planet's surface to ...

<r>Hi people,Does anyone remember this game for the 8 bit computers? Here is a short video clip:<YOUTUBE id="GsYQNXdAZQA"><s>[media]</s>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GsYQNXdAZQA<e>[/media]</e></YOUTUBE> concept was a nice idea: You were hunting crystals on a matrix and had to take care not to ...
