SKYJACKER

[Pinback]

Skyjacker KS been a bit quiet lately. Still have 19 days to go.

That is for the Constructor and not the actual game itself, this constructor is pretty cool and I haven't read too much on how this fits into the game itself? But from what I know it is a tool that will let you put together or take apart all the skyjacket ship assets in the game. And depending on funding goals they might add features to allow you to create new ships using their in-game assets. I do hope this tool is in the final PC version of the game because it would make modding so much fun.

Seems to going very slow for them as this update from the KS said. It's not a secret that we have big plans for the future, and this campaign is just a part of the bigger campaign, related to the main game - our space combat simulator SKYJACKER. The plan was to reach 30K goal before the end of December and to occupy some of our stretch goals in January. But we still are in the very beginning, struggling to reach at least the main goal. So what's going on there? Nobody wants to play new cool space games anymore? Or backers are satiated with other games? Let us remind you: our game is quite different to others. No doubts, those other space simulators are very interesting games too. But only in SKYJACKER you can destroy everything your weapons can reach. Any asteroid or enemy ship can be a target of your passion to destroy! And the only Starship Constructor lets you get a look inside of those ships before to start to get crash them inside the game. Did you see this feature anywhere else in space sims? I doubt! So why we are struggling so much to raise even 30K for such incredible app?

Another disassembling vid  Only 9 days to go and they are just over the half way mark to the 30,000 total, hopefully it will pick up a bit in the next week.

Starting to pick up a bit now, they do have some good tiers on the KS.

I'm considering backing this KS, as I've backed the original unsuccessful KS. Although the rather obnoxious statement towards Elite from the promoter were a big turn off...

Anyone else in Skyjacker, just waiting for them to get their forum set up.

[Pinback]

Got the invite to the forum, it come on Monday but I did not realizes what it was until the other day when I got the email about downloading the game sound track.

[sscadmin]

Yeah the soundtrack is pretty good I have had it for a while. I haven't checked on their site for a little while with all that has been going on here but I hope progress is being made at getting Skyjacker out the door.

They just posted a new vid on testing the game AI. [url][/url]

It's definitely coming along nicely, they will have some touch up work to do on those explosions because you can see some artifacts.
