Starfarer Gameplay Trailer - "Turning the Tables" Playthrough

[stealthmoon]

i bought your game

[TheRadicalOneNG]

I like how repair and refit restores lost fighter ships as long as the entire wing isn't destroyed. Encourages intelligent play and not sacrificing entire fighter squads.

[scollom08]

Not a good trailer but the gameplay does look awesome. (also maybe i'm just too used to cinematic trailers)

[derrickhayden]

hope u guys get this ready as soon as possible...im definitely buying this

[soundslave]

Gratuitous Space Battles and S.P.A.Z anyone?

[BunySlayerGames]

Repair & Refit *crashes straight into an asteroid*

lol

[Rekksar]

This game is really hard! and yet I love it :D

[darkshaver1]

You know that you got shields on

your ship.

[Baleur]

The interface in the bottom left and when targeting an enemy ship is so frigging awesome. I hope it doesnt go away as development progresses :)

More games with detailed info on screen as opposed to just "enemy, shoot it" please! :D

[evildoctorbluetooth]

Definatly not dissing. I wish i had the inspiration to create an enterprising project such as yours(did you see what i did there? :-))

[Trux2010]

I preordered earlier! Amazing concept behind this game and great depth and lore behind it. Thanks Alex and team!

[evildoctorbluetooth]

windows movie maker???

[fractalsoftworks]

@evildoctorbluetooth Yes :( It's quick! And it only washes the color out a little bit. Ahem.

[Nerolus]

@evildoctorbluetooth WMM FTW!

[DNAz5646]

@pkonneker Your wife is such a cheap ass. I recommend selling her.

[pkonneker]

Well the real problem is being poor thanks to school... X[

[DNAz5646]

@pkonneker If you are in debt and have negative money then sure.

[pkonneker]

@DNAz5646 Yes exactly. That is what school does to you. LOTS of negative money.

[VakuzaV47]

How does the pre-ordering actually work? I don't feel safe doing it, as there isn't anything obvious that links me with the purchase other than my debit card. Is there any possiblilty of doing it like minecraft, where you have an account and you purchase it for that account?

[fractalsoftworks]

@VakuzaV47 On the back end, the email account you use to preorder links you with an activation code that gets sent out once the preorder is processed. Hopefully that answers your question - if it doesn't, could you elaborate on your concern?

[VakuzaV47]

@fractalsoftworks Ah okay, but what happens if the game needs to be uninstalled and reinstalled for an unknown reason? Will I retain the code or not? Also thank you for the help ^^

[fractalsoftworks]

@VakuzaV47 Yeah, you retain the code, and can reuse it if needed. If you lose it, you can always send me an email (from the email address you used to preorder) to get it back.

[VakuzaV47]

@fractalsoftworks Thank You - Time to Preorder :D

[fractalsoftworks]

@VakuzaV47 Thank you for your support! :)

[gameguy345]

Will there be mod support for this game?

[fractalsoftworks]

@gameguy345 Yeah, there already is - check out the "Modding" section of the forums.

[GAM3HAZARD]

Ad iDeal payment option pls :), then I can buy it ;D

[ICBPenguin]

this looks incredible... nice to see some competition in the genre too

[duncan2k8]

That looks really cool.

[Therealgigabyte]

Preordered this. Looks amazing and from the little ive played it IS amazing.

[Cherrybloodsyrup]

Awesome! You guys are really talented.

Watching this I think I can imagine myself getting really confused by the lack of on-screen radar. Esp. since there are no landmarks in space!

[fractalsoftworks]

@Cherrybloodsyrup Thanks :) The radar ribbon around the edge of the screen is supposed to replace a more standard-looking radar, and for the most part does. It gives most of the same info for less screen space.

[ra4king]

Java is amazing! :D

[Radici20]

How does this compares to Spaz?

[FrozenFlame333]

@Radici20 spaz is more arcade-y and rpg focused, while this is more of an rts type game. i prefer this tbh, spaz got boring for me after the first two hours.

[clovelywindheaven]

BTW i love your art direction and ship design they look so awesome...reminds me of Xenon ...hell if your thinking of making XENO type ships take a look at HR Gigers work....

[clovelywindheaven]

please tell me your thinking of adding COOP and MP? COME ON! lol

[warstomper]

looks interesting looking forward to it

[Benc1213]

This looks awesome. I hope I can pre order.

[Benc1213]

this was all done in java?

[fractalsoftworks]

@Benc1213 Yes, Java with LWJGL.

[GreigerBDragon]

Game looks awesome. The Hamatsu could use a better driver though. "Oh look, a meteor lets ram it and then panic and raise our shields."

[fractalsoftworks]

@GreigerBDragon The pilot fell asleep at the wheel, woke up from the noise, started pushing buttons frantically. If this isn't the next step in realistic AI behavior, I don't know what is :)

[whop9]

Whoever is in charge of the sound design needs a medal.

[Xydarc]

Really looking forward to playing this. Glad I pre-ordered!

[getter7seven]

Looking forward to the future purchase, even if I wind up missing the Alpha by a long shot.

[zarcon94]

Looks awesome. Can't wait for alpha.
