Darkmatter Development announces a new game in the Star Apocalypse series.

Posted by on

Hey all!

It have been quite quiet times recently, but that's about to change!

Development has started of Star Apocalypse: Empires.

This game will be slightly based on the Star Apocalypse universe. The main purpose of this game will be to show some mechanics and to gain experience for the team. Next to that, we try to produce a fun to play strategy game which doesn't take much time.

SAE will be free to play and share. Editing requires permission though. Development has already started, and has been going. It uses Object Pascal as programming language.

More details will be released later on when development is in a more mature stage!

Till the next time!

I thought Star Apocalypse was already started?

Or SA:E an entirely new project?

well, Star Apocalypse was started, but we had some internal problems. Mainly with developers wanting it to do it differently than planned. It was decided to let Star Apocalypse rest for a moment and create a smaller game.

SA:E is an entirely new project, but it will mainly be to gain experience (as we've got some new developers in the team). It is often said, it is the best to start small and expand it from there. That's our main ideology at the moment.

If you want to know anything more, feel free to ask.

New concept eh?
I'm not entirely sure of what the older concept was, but if it helps maintain a release then I'm for it.

I even wrote an article on starting smaller projects.

I look forward to your newer project. :)

we just lack the expertise to get Star Apocalypse done in an acceptable period. That's why we start this project, which will be smaller in scope.
