Nice teaser. You've got my
Nice teaser. You've got my attention. Look forward to hearing more about this in the future. It seems to have a good bit of the stuff that I like to see in a game.
Sounds cool!
Yep!
As feNix said...you've got a good teaser here. Where are you in development so far?

Development
Thanks for your comments,
We are in a late development stage; you might call it "beta". We are currently going into heavy play testing and balancing. Fine tuning rules, balancing ship special abilities, and generally trying to "break" the game.
We are also in talks with a few manufacturers, so that we can go to print as soon as possible.
Cheers, -Cody
