This post is just to get publicity for the game!!!!**Freecon Galactic is a 2D space mmorpg being developed by my friends Free and Jakkob. It's obviously a low budget game, but with high standards. The Alpha release was scheduled for february, but they are running a little late. Hopefully it will be soon! They have improve lots of things including:Graphics - ships - planets - turrets - missilesParticle EngineBloomDefensesWarping to different systemsThe game will be amazing, if you want to see old sceenshots and everything just look at the old post spolier below. If you want to see newer screenshots, please just visit the website!Old Post:>! **What the fudge is Freecon Galactic?**>! >! >! >! Very old video with the first turret shooting at a player (lol!)>! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Siwin4QfSc8>! This, my friends, is Freecon Galactic, codenamed Space Rambles, that my friends have been working on for almost a year now. These screens above are new and old, respectively. This game is programmed using C++ I believe, and it is a 2D space game. It is not a eclipse game, and it is not crappy either. This is going to be a great game, and the **ALPHA RELEASE** is sometime this month! If you want to get a glimpse of this awesome sexy space game in action, go to there website and sign up, and follow the MP directions to get into the Alpha!>! [spacerambles.com](http://spacerambles.com)>! It is being programmed by a team of guys I know from another space game I play. They're names are Free, Jakkob, Ilaan, Tucker, and Alan. Great guys and I can't wait to play this game. You guys should also be excited! The more players, the better! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guzmanm Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 Looks rather sexy. The video caught me the most. The graphics suit up with the style and game type, but I don't like 'em honestly. Can't wait to give it a try! And the website just gave me an orgasm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 Graphics are awful, they look like something from 10+ years ago. Replace them if you want to be taken seriously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myron Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 @Eckhart:> Replace them if you want to be taken seriously.By whom? Kids? Having that graphics that look "like something from 10+ years ago" doesn't necessarily mean it's bad. That's like telling your grandmother that if she wants to be taken seriously she should replace that old TV she saved from her time and get one that's from this century.

Whackeddie99 Posted February 12, 2012 Author Share Posted February 12, 2012 These are obviously not the final graphics. I got a new update and here's a new recent picture with missiles and particle engine programmed: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess it was not obvious.Oh, by the way if you happen to read this Fuu, I hate you and your immature, but I really like that pixel in your sig. But I still hate you. Hope you take it the right way.

I got a new update and here's a new recent picture with missiles and particle engine programmed:Wow, those effects are damn pretty. Just wondering, do you think that the particle system is going to take a lot of power from GPU/CPU? Because I have a shitty computer, I mean, netbook.Basically, my netbook is not so shitty, but when games need Hardware TnL(Shadows and Lights), my pc kind of… you know... runs the game with low FPS. I'd recommend an option to turn the Particle System on or off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whackeddie99 Posted February 16, 2012 Author Share Posted February 16, 2012 I don't think it will take up that much. you should be fine. Another update, Free started a grouptilt. They need donations to pay for the Alpha server costs. If anyone could donate just a bit, it would make everything better.Can't wait for alpha, it's defnitely in the next three weeks!

freeqaz Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Oh wow! Thanks Mr Whack for posting up this page, it's at the top of the results when you google Freecon Galactic! We're currently working on the website and new brand identity for Freecon Galactic to supercede the Codename 'Space Rambles'.Those images that he uploaded in the first post are absolutely ancient! That video was from October! While I haven't got any more up to date videos, I do have some pretty screenshots. I'll attach them here so that the board (hopefully) scales them down!To all who are curious, the game is being coded in C#/XNA with our own engine. We've got multithreaded networking and physics. And as for the requirements for the graphics, one of our devs has a Radeon X300 with 32mb of GPU memory (steals up to 128mb from system too) who runs the game with disabled bloom. For more info, check this post…I can't post link. Hmm, well the link is (copy and paste this):spacerambles.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=575Check out the forums and sign up if you're interested! We're right around the corner from alpha and could use any input from alpha testers. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whackeddie99 Posted March 30, 2012 Author Share Posted March 30, 2012 Bump, because the creator of the game posted about it and I didn't even notice. We want Alpha now free wortley! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
