Space Conquest - is this project worth something?
« on: June 17, 2009, 06:35:59 AM »
I just made a simple game but I wonder if this has any potential or if I should kill it...
Looking for feedback.

Go to http://www.wildwestmmorpg.com then join "SpaceConquest" world.

Interface is kinda simple but... I'm somehow puzzled...I don't have no ship nor colony, I can't capture colony because I have no ship
but I guess I can't build a ship without colony and no colony is free...maybe I have some homeworld but I didn't find any menu item for it
Can you help me with it please?

As for alliances I'd use "send request" rather than straightly "join"

Improved, try now. I avoid answering here, so I can get a true feedback from a person who don't have a prior knowledge or additional info other than info provided in-game.

Is it clear enough now?

I'd swear it did something else than now after clicking, weird :) works now

Still - when I go to Your colonies in main menu and then Find colonies it just displays a message so I have to go throught Planets anyway
and the link in YC is useless now

Otherwise kinda minimalistic but can be good, if for example supported by competitivness etc., shall see if it catches me :)

Another thing - the page should be updated when I do an action, now when I e.g. order construction of a mine then there's still the old numbers in
mine count and resource amount...beside greater comfort it's also a bit confusing, player doesn't know, if those building were really constructed then

Good luck in developement :)

I like it so far. It def has some potential, i like these kind of games. Interface is minimalistic and need some little work i think and also when i build constructions i need to refresh to get the numbers updated, i find that irritating sometimes.

I've played several days now, but I don't really feel it. I don't feel like I have a real goal, and there are no challenges. I had no player interaction until now either (expect for shoutbox).

I personally think it currently does not have much potential. But maybe other players see it? I find it kinda harsh to say you should kill it... :D
