    Dung beetle was my first intuition,but it's best not to follow them every time. Scarab is a fine name, even if there if not much optical similarity... But there never is :) Those are starship after all.

    They are also old hats :) But not so frequent so it's possible you missed them. Now that I think about it, it's possible they only start appearing at level 4. As we are discussing names, l am still looking for an insecto name for the Frigates (you will see them in level 5's destroyer battles)...

    Then you either only played to level 2 before, or somehow managed to overlook these bastards that are in the game since ages. They first appear at captain rank (level 3). But good to hear that it's been a smooth ride so far. As I see from the stats, many people already quit before even finishing...

    You can play for free as long as you wish. Worst thing that can happen that you wait a while when your ship gets destroyed (the timer keeps running even when you quit the app). And even then, you can still play simulator missions. By the way, unlimited instant repairs are two dollars (special...

    So... An app update is on the server but it can take a while before that appears in the store or your device. The names actually were saved correctly, but for some reason whitespace was attached when transfering them back and that messed up the client. Thanks alot for the heads-up Whistler. By...

    Oh... this is pretty bad, and reproducable. I will get an update out ASAP.

    Hey Mr Whistler, if you name your new Pilot Whistler2 or whatever, I can transfer your beta data. You have played for quite some time here. By the way, be warned that there are not a lot of changes from the beta version. I tried to add some damage effects, but stuff like this is not my strong...

    Effects are already better than before, but yeah, could still be improved. However, you can't go too crazy as the mobile hardware is much more limited than PC/console. But I'll try to give the blowing up of things a little more variety. The characters are pretty standard SF people. Yes, the...

    @capi3101: sorry, it's Android only... @Whistler: thanks. The App creates very little network traffic (maybe 1MB per hour) IAPs are pretty fair in this game (IMHO of course :rolleyes:). Depending on your skills, you can play very far with just the credits earned in the game. The other IAPs are...

    A journey that has taken over two years is coming to an end. Besides some sub-standard texts and most likely a few bugs, Armada - Mobile Space Combat - is finished (though there will probably be continuous updates after publishing). Anyone willing to try out the beta version, please direct your...

    That's quite an impressive portfolio I have to say. Will definitely check out the space game!

    Thank you Howard. I'll do my best ;) Will keep you guys up-to-date. Can you tell me which games you have worked on, and in which position?

    Thank you so much for this insight look. Makes me wonder if you guys would like to play a beta version. I agree with the interface issues - as mentioned briefly, this stuff is far from final. I'd definitely would like to have punchier effects, but am somwhat bound by what the engine and the...
