A majorly overdue update on Age of Space
What have we been up to the last year? Read more about it in this announcement.
Hi everyone!
We know it’s been a while since we’ve posted any updates. Now is a great time to let you know what we've been up to - and what we have decided to do moving forwards.
PodPal Games is a very small indie studio running off the blood, sweat and tears of our developers. Everything you’ve seen so far is the product of our team working evenings, nights, and weekends for several years. To be able to reach our ambition levels with Age of Space we have always been dependent on significant external investment. We’ve spent a lot of time and energy the past year trying to secure this investment, but unfortunately, we have not managed to close a deal yet. We did get very very close!
Therefore, to finish Age of Space within reasonable time we’ve got to make some painful cuts. By far the most expensive and time-consuming part of making this game is the storyline missions. Unfortunately, this is also one of the parts many of you have looked forward to most. However, with the current funding situation it’s simply not possible. Our primary focus will now be on making the game as fun, challenging and rewarding as possible with the time and remaining resources we have. We will also focus on making it look great.
The upside to all of this is that you will be able to play Age of Space much sooner. Our primary focus moving forwards will be to make a playable build. We will post more information about that when we get there – and how you can get involved.
Age of Space really is a passion project for all of us working on it. We appreciate every like, comment and response we get from you. It really makes our day and motivates us to move forward.
Thanks for sharing our dream!
Best regards,
Team PodPal
