The 24th century was known as the Era of Unity. Our greatest achievements came after the 21st and 22nd century, a time of struggle. The Era of Unity was sparked by contact with an alien race, the Fawnu, who were similar to us in intelligence, peaceful, and prosperous. Together, we discovered the cosmic strings that warp space-time and bind our galaxy together. We can use them to travel, in an instant, to distant moons and planets. The Solar System was united under the U.N.S.F., but it could not last. Follow the story of Tylo, a young pilot selected for a top priority mission. His adventures will lead him to the skies of strange and distant worlds, and his excellent flying skills will be the only thing to save him from the dangerous Nation of Worlds.

I've done some very exciting work with the weapons system and made an interesting model. I'd like to have the next update done by the end of the month!

Hey everyone! I've been working pretty hard on Eye of Dawn for the last few weeks. The first thing I've done is make a new weapons system, which adds weapon overheating, but there isn't currently any HUD Icons for that. It should only take a few minutes to implement that once we've made all of the proper gauges and such.
Second, I've added a missile barrage system, so you can fire not two simultaneous missiles, but a staggered barrage of missiles. This looks a lot cooler and actually makes it easier to hit your target, and speaking of which......

It's also pretty easy to hit them when you're locked on! That's right! now you can Lock on to a target and your missiles will chase them down. Also your HUD will give you a "hull scan" showing a blue bar for each ship in range!
I've also tried my hand at a little modeling. here's a rough draft of a space station.

That's eventually going to have a few bells and whistles to make it a little more interesting to look at. but you get the gist of it. Here's a shot from inside the hanger:

Development has been pretty exciting this month, and by May I'd like to have a Development build available. Thanks for viewing and please share this news with your friends!
