I really wanted to try this, but the reliance on using a smart phone was a bottleneck for me.

Echoing @NEETsoftLD, I would love to play this properly but don't have my phone handy right now. I found the AirConsole simulator quite buggy - it was laggy/unresponsive for a bit, but I got the game open!

I really love the logo designs, art style, and general theme of the game - it does not quite carry across to the actual gameplay screen though.

Such a shame I wanted to try this but having to rely using a smartphone turned me away.

I like the graphic style (according to the screenshots), but unfortunately, my philips xenium is an ancient technology too.

Sorry for disappointing you :( I had hoped that it would work much better, I'll have to talk to the @AirConsole guys about that
You could try the AirConsoleSimulator link that would at least give a feel for how the game worked

@Whitepot Studios: Do you mean the art of the planet or the ships?

Cool game! I like the art style and the music is nice also! The reliance of smartphone is kind of annoying, but it didn't stop me from playing :P
next time better not rely on airconsole xD

Interesting game, with a lot of potential. I tested it Chrome in Windows and an iOS + Android devices, green and red. I love the hud, and thanks you, i get to know this network controller. so cool!

Nice art style :D

This looked cool but I can't play since it relies on a phone

Very nice concept!

I would have liked to play this, but the smart phone requirement was too much. I wonder if this type of gaming will catch on ever?

josho 2016-08-31 22:58

The concept is cool and i liked the graphics but i wasnt able to use my smart phone That was just a bit too much,
Is there another way to play this without the smartphone? i hope theres is becuase this seems like an awesome game

Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but both screens (iPhone and Chrome on Mac) are just stuck on Pre-ARC.

@RIPPorkins: There's some problems with establishing a connection between the controller and the screen in this version. If that happens, just disconnect, wait a few seconds and reconnect again once the game has finished loading
I have to talk with the guys from AirConsole why that's happening

Doesn't play nice with phones, gets stuck, consider baking the controls into the client rather than using this system.

kai20 2016-09-01 21:25

Sorry i dont want to play it with this in mind ;(

@joemag:
What was stuck? And did you mean AirConsole with 'this system' or the separation of controllers and screen?
@WERT Studio:
With what in mind? That phones are controllers?
