Post by Pinback »

Found this 2d clone of Elite when you dock at the space station the game turns into a graphic adventure type of game where you can chat to the locals,look for jobs do some trading ect.Theres a few bad vids of it on youtube but the game looks lot better then the vid show.you can get the demo herehttp://www.birdinsky.com/Bird_in_Sky/returningsoon.htmlUnfortunately it looks like the devs have gone awol,so there might not be any full game?.

Have it loaded on my machine and with playing it briefly seems well done. I will play through it a lot more and post some screenshots when I can. Hope the author picks up on developing again. I tried to find an email address but was unsuccessful for contacting about Deathwar 3030.

With a little touch up Deathwar would be a perfect fit for iPhones and other mobile apps. And maybe even look into the PS3 Network and Xbox360 Live. I am trying to get a hold of the developer to see if I can host Deathwar3030 as a download just incase something happens to the download.

Got a reply from Matt the developer and he gave permission so I can host the files and even a patch for the 1.03 release to make it 1.04. Unfortunetly there is no plans for further work on Deathwar3030. But you never know.... I will make an official thread for the game once I have uploaded the files (probably tonight).

Yeah. Since the developer game me the permission to host all the files I thought I would just merge it all. I haven't added the mod tools to the archive but I will eventually :) And that patch was unreleased btw so it is a SSC exclusive ;)
