Aww :( I'd love to try out your game, but it seems the link is broken :/

The link is working for me. I love the idea, nice concept !

Seemed interesting but it was telling me I didn't have MSVCP110.dll - I checked in my system folders and its in there. I'm running Win8 64-bit.

arcturusdeluxe 2013-08-27 11:59

Sorry, my bad, it was MSVCR110.dll - but I got it working now. Seems like an interesting idea!

I think you were onto something here but it really needs more time to be fleshed out. Very interesting concept though. The graphic style is really cool!

Avast is reporting malware in SDL.dll. Probably a false positive but maybe you could check it out?

ArcturusDeluxe: Sorry about the missing CRT dlls - forgot I was building on VS2012. They're included in the zip now.

DaanVanYperen: Well, that's a bit surprising given that I built that DLL myself from the SDL repository. :) I don't actually use it in this game, though, so I might try to get that dependency removed.

Great graphics and the concept really has potential. Would like to get my hands on a more fully implemented game!

the graphics are great, but as you said, not very playable for now. inseresting idea :)

It crashed with this error: "[error] dev->CreateTexture2d(&tdesc, nullptr, &tex)@src\ld_d3d11.cpp:1799 failed with error 0x80070057 (The parameter is incorrect.)E_INVALIDARG: An invalid parameter was passed to the returning function"
I've send a crash report. I'm running a 32 bit Windows.
So sorry I couldn't play your game :(

I have no solutions how to play this game. But, graphics looks nice

Why are you sad?? This is the awesomest tech demo ever. There's something about the idea of owning your own deathstar that's very compelling.

Also I've always loved games where you control a planet and can rotate around it.
It's even kind of fun as it is!

Top marks for graphics and mood as well, and I hope you develop this further (please)

this could make a great Death Star game, if finished.
