A brief description of what we've been up to in the last month.

Posted by on

Hello everyone,

Everything is looking good here at the Gemini Sector.

Two weeks ago we made a closed beta release on our forums, and quite a few people got their hands on a beta build of GW.
The feedback we got was invaluable, and we’re now fixing / changing some of the issues that were reported. We’ve been in polishing / bug fixing mode for about 2 months now, but it seems that polishing is never enough.

The most recent feature we added (beta players asked for it), is the possibility to fix the camera to a ship, following it wherever it goes. It was a great idea.

Below, two screenshots of the camera attached to a frigate and to a cruiser. Both ships are travelling in hyperspace between asteroid spots, and the effect around the ships is animated, it looks gorgeous while moving :)

The third screenshot shows the camera locked around a destroyer. Once locked to a ship, the camera can be rotated to check the ship in detail.

The battle camera was also improved and it’s back in action. It’s a great way to enjoy battles.

Another feature the players requested was different symbols per ship / structure class, so this is what’s shown in the fourth shot.

And finally, in the fifth screenshot, are the game’s achievements. A lot of them to be earned!

I tried to join your forums but I cannot contact the admin nor can I join. Keeps saying problem. problem. No error code. Everything is typed in correctly and so sadly I missed out applying for the Closed Beta :( BUT! It still looks great and IM excited for this game! Keep it up!

Hey Scope.
I'm sorry that happened, what kind of problem was it ? It just says "problem" ?
Were you even able to register, but then unable to login ?
Due to the amount of spam bots, we do have to confirm all users being registered, so maybe we blocked your user somehow.
