Sorry for the link that isn't live yet! It's upcoming and I will post as soon as we go live Glad everyone is excited!
So, this game didn't make Toucharcade's "Coming Tonight" article. Hope it's still coming, and wondering why it was snubbed...
It's not uncommon for Touch Arcade to overlook some indie titles or releases with unclear timeframe. I don't blame TA because nothing is certain, it's possible Apple could reject the app. I know Trese Brothers' are out there and although I'd hate waiting, it would be solid marketing to announce a pre-determined release date for exposure like the front page here or elsewhere (but even that isn't guaranteed).
I could be wrong but I was under the assumption the Coming Soon posts were put together solely using the threads that have appeared in the releases forum. No one's posted it yet so that would be my understanding of it not being there. That's not to say that it's not coming tonight; I've been off my game and there's a later release haul in the evening so it could easily pop up as a surprise. The AppStore is just an awkward beast so there's no telling until the US releases hit that region. Definitely interested in this one!
Ah that makes sense. Likely as not, this hasn't been approved yet so it wouldn't be on their radar. This and Godfire are the only two I'm interested in this week; mostly this, though.
They're just used to releasing games on Google Play which seems to release the same day they submit it. I agree with undeadcow though, they could get a bit more media coverage by announcing a release date.
Star Traders 4X is processing in the App Store. https://twitter.com/corytrese/status/479331328777658368
Star Traders 4X Empires has been released! https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/star-traders-4x-empires/id872458628?ls=1&mt=8 @undeadcow - could you help us make a thead in Universal games? Somehow, I think you've done all Trese Brothers games thank you good sir!

Yeah, today being my day off, I was all over it. Got word from twitter, to app store confirmation, to TA.
