Quote: "is it a completely new gameplay experience??"
The control method is different now and the weaponry is all different. The AI has been written afresh and is subtely different and the ships are more fragile. In principle it is the same game.
The strategy side of the game is all new of corse, i've not heard from Paul in a week or so - last I heard he was doing a prototype in Access before he began work. Whenever I check he isn't online, we seem to keep different hours unfortunately.
Hopefully i'll have more news soon. I'm glad that there are positive responces to the graphics, I hope that you are still satisfied when you see it all moving.
It is just a simple game, so I hope you are not dissapointed by that because it is not a full Banshee game with loads of effort gone in to it.
It will be a free download like other Banshee games. If the team make money from games at all in the near future it will be from flogging adverts in the game rather than by selling it, otherwise not so many people would get to play Banshee games. Mostly though we're funding the computer games and web site by giving sponsorship out on the Go Kart team in exchange for services which is how Banshee is managing to stay advert free at the moment.
God created the world in 7 days, but we're still waiting for the patch.
