We have some big news for our upcoming game ASTEROID FIGHT and I want to share it with you :slight_smile:

Today we are thrilled to announce the launch of our new website as well as the first step in opening up ASTEROID FIGHT to the world! Until now, ASTEROID FIGHT has been in a very limited closed alpha status, which allowed us testing the core game features, such as:

  • First 6 basic units
  • First HERO unit
  • Building placement
  • Basic economy & building times
  • A basic building tree
  • Online multiplayer 1-on-1
  • Randomly generated maps
  • Warp Gate & Base defending
  • Unique game mechanics mix

As a next step we are inviting 100 people! We are introducing online multiplayer 2on2 and 3on3 to the game, the waypoint system has been implemented, physics have been greatly enhanced and an online leaderboard for generating some level of competition even in this very early alpha phase is on its way.

WE NEED YOU WITH US ON THIS JOURNEY TO MAKE ASTEROID FIGHT NOT ONLY THE GAME WE HAVE BEEN DREAMING ABOUT, BUT ALSO AN AWESOME GAME YOU WILL LOVE TO PLAY!

We are opening registration for the upcoming alpha release 0.3.3 by now! Since we are going to ramp up server load slowly, we are limiting the amount of free slots for the next step to 100.

Apply now to grab one of the limited slots for the first official run of ASTEROID FIGHT!

PS: Had to make a new thread, because the other one apparently is too old (Sept. 2014?) and I can’t edit it anymore.

We developed the help system today and made a little tutorial, so new players have an easier time with the game.

I couldn’t find a match, but the game looks really good, seriously guys give them a try it’s really a well developed game!
I like the cheesy lines at the matchmaking, it’s funny cause I did the same thing with Brutal Fighters, not sure if you got the idea from me though ;D

I am going to try to find a match again later, it’s the same with Brutal Fighters, I could pull off only around 2-3 matches daily, now I am trying to gather more followers, and do a proper release so the initial players would be enough for the game to survive until more join.

Anyway I wish you luck! it looks really promising guys :slight_smile:

Thanks for your feedback! Also got your in-game feedback :wink:

Yeah, the cheesy lines during waiting for a game are inspired by your game :slight_smile: It’s a good way to keep people entertained a little bit longer while waiting for a game.

But as you said, it’s not an easy task to attract enough players so you can play everytime you login. Our release date yesterday wasn’t chosen very wisely also. It’s the 2015 International Dota 2 Championships and also the GamesCom, the biggest gaming convention in europa, is held these days. :wink:

I hope we can attract more players next week.

We are working on a “fully integrated game experience” now. Means: you are always in a game. You start the game and you immediately join a “free for all” game.

You can then play the game similar to Counter Strike or you can decide to play a fair game against other players, either by requesting them directly for a play or by stating that you are ready for a ranked, random 3vs3 game.

This way we want to ease the starting of a multiplayer game - you don’t have to wait for other players to join now.

In the future the maps will be created so they are even a challenge if you play alone. There will be various mission maps that can be played in “free for all” mode. :slight_smile:

Big news everybody! We submitted Asteroid Fight to Steam Greenlight :point:

We built a lot of new features and also the integrated gaming experience I talked about in the last post. When you start the game you can assemble your own personal commander and then you meet in a hub with other players, who you can invite to play a game against or with you. :slight_smile:

Just watch our awesome trailer on Greenlight and please vote for us! :slight_smile:
