While the project is still in the early Alpha stages, Andy Longhurst, the programmer at Orbital Games has posted his thoughts on the development objectives for our current title - Fusion Shift!

Andy wrote:"In this post I’m going to write an overview of what of Fusion Shift’s gameplay entails and what we at Orbital Games have tried to do in preparation for its first public release."

Touching briefly on our previous début game release, Octopede and highlighting some of the key comments and feeback that were taken into consideration whilst designing Fusion shift.

The article goes on to introduce some recent additions to the game and how these will affect the co-operative nature of Fusion Shifts core gameplay on the PC and Xbox 360.

Andy wrote:"Fusion Shift only has a co-operative multiplayer mode and so we wanted the game design to encourage and reward players who work together, whether there are 2, 3 or 4 of them. We wanted to encourage interaction and communication between players, rather than each player parking their ship in a corner of the screen and just firing towards the middle..."

All testers will have their name included in the final in-game credits for Fusion Shift.

Updates for the project should be fast and frequent from now on. We are very close to making a public alpha release - just need to round off a few of the edges.

Thank you for tracking us (and being so patient)!
