Star Command (Game Dev Story meets Star Trek)

[Aventador]

I discovered this game 3 days ago and been following it and reading about it the whole time.I got high hopes for it, but I'm also afraid that it doesn't become repetitive soon, I didn't see much variety in enemies or ships in released game footage videos.
Keep my fingers crossed that final product proves me I'm wrong and paves it's way into one of best games for iOS.

I am worried about this game too... I have been looking forward to this game and iMech. I hope it has alot of missions not just the same ones that have been shown in the videos. And does anyone know if there are away missions?

From the PocketGamer article:

"This Game Dev Story-style sim will feature at least 17 missions and ten races when it hits the App Store and Google Play. There'll also be tons of unique ships to get your mitts on, and plenty of upgradable character classes to play around with."

I guess it remains to be seen how long each mission is, but ten races and "tons of unique ships" sounds promising. It might not be the sort of game you can judge the length of by its missions anyway. Each game of FTL I play barely has 17 encounters, but I've logged dozens of hours on it so far. If the setup is anything like that it should be relatively easy to keep adding new content into the game.

Oh boy. The more I see it the more I grow disinterested in other games. Every week I'm like "I wonder if there are any games like Star Command due out... just to tide me over until Star Command". There never are.

<Le sigh> I can't find any ios games I enjoy atm. I checked bit Dungeons and Ravenous' latest Infector, but just not cutting it. Maybe Might&Magic "match-3, rpg battler looks good...

But yes, Star Command really looks great. I just hope it has replay value, as I'm sure I'm going to enjoy every minute of it assuming it's performance is fine, the design, assets all look good even doing nothing looks good in this game. So yes, I hope I don't enjoy it then wonder how long new content is for it, or wonder how it could have been made to be more replayable - that's where FTL really shines.

I really can't wait to get this game... the art style is my cup of tea

One thing that worries me, if the game is continually being pushed back what are updates going to be like?

Still a day one, but I'm hoping it all comes together ASAP
