Awesome update, thanks guys! Lots of truly interesting ideas and concepts

Some questions :

• Time cycles: are these the actual exact time cycles (i.e. exactly 2 hours IRL for 1 day IG) or is that approximately so? If so, have you considered non-even numbers so that players always playing at the same time every day don't always see the same daylight pattern? If so, why not?

• If I understood correctly : 1) every planet has the same day length, 2) two of them orbit each other, 3) eclipse on those two may last several IG days. I might be wrong but, intuitively, it doesn't seem cosmologicaly possible for all 3 statements to be true. Are your cosmological mechanics actual (i.e. fully implemented in SpatialOS) or are they solely for narrative/background/gameplay reasons?

• Any chance we can get a larger versions of those concept arts for desktop wallpaper purposes??

Where???

On discord. He said it was going to be by today, but then they delayed it because of Milan Games.

It's about the knowledge system.

Also, when they say by the end of the week their week ends on Sunday.

Oooh right, right. So that means more tasty Foundation points to collect

Thanks!

I can already predict this becoming the biggest thread ever on these forums

@Prometheus Thanks for the answer. Yes, I do know and agree I've been supporting several indie games, including a couple MMOs, during their early stages, both financially as a backer/pledger and in terms of QA / community support as well, so I think I can understand and appreciate developers coming in from your angle.

That being said, I like knowing who's making a game, as it helps understand some of their ideas and how they're approaching things. I'll be keeping an eye on that announcement forum

Checking out the check ins.

Under one form or another, this question always come up in pre-release communities, for every game that is and ever was

If I make a game someday, that's definitely a topic I'll make sure we address in the first version of the design doc, hehe.

How many quotes and re-quotes can we make, tops, you think?

A lot. But I think we should find out.

I'm not convinced?!!

Noice

I really hope that they limit to the utmost minimum the kind of "design experience", reserving that to top-tier rewards/packages only and/or in a limited way (name this, choose the color of that, etc.). I think they're time-consuming and costly for the developer when done too extensively/in detail.

I actually kinda like that forum software. Could use some tweaks, for sure. I find it alright.

Wow!! Go go Fractured!!!

Yay!!! Gg guys

Another hearty update, good job guys I feel like I might buy your game just because of how impressed I am with the work you're doing. Seriously!!! Keep it up

(also: I'm still #91 on the Leaderboard after all that time, muhahahahaaaa)

This is hard.
