Hello everyone! in the following few days, I'll be focusing on Ship Design section of Universe Edge, this will be a big step towards Pre-Alpha release! ( Target Date : Late-Nov to Early Dec 2011 )
Okay, so how can you build your SpaceShip!? its simply like Minecraft putting blocks! but there are few choices that you have to make first:
Block Shape: ( 3 at the moment )
irregular blocks are rotatable!
Block Texture : ( From CGTextures.com! )
Block Materials : ( Maximum of four selections )
materials is what the block is made up from, these materials are gathered from asteroids, plundered from enemy ship, or crafted in your manufacturing equipments.
materials will determine what the block is capable of:
[Insert Material Name Here] = Effect ( 5% chance to bounce a laser )
[Insert Material Name Here] = Effect ( 200% HP )
[Insert Material Name Here] = Effect ( Reduce Microwave power by 20% )
materials can be stacked 4 times into a single block.
Please prevent people from building **** ships -.-
haha! there's a lot of variations of **** shapes. it would be difficult for me to program it all to be preventable :p
man, this game is going to be epic... will you allow modding? (horror mod idea is abrewering).
It is epic! been playing the game all the time ( only in my mind :D ).
I hope i can manage to replicate exactly my imaginations :)
I will definitely allow modding, but i haven't research deep about the Unity's capability in modding yet. I will look into it some time.
About the horror, well. . Light and Shadows is supported + abandoned ships. . hmmmmm :)
