Hey guys and gals. I am currently ramping up interest for a game I am currently designing called Eclipse Avalon's Gate. It is a PC based Tower Defense RTS hybrid Game to be released via Steam.

Here is a short concept of the story involved.

You are the last defense of an deep space out post station in the Avalon Galaxy that remains until the main fleet can come to reinforce the sector that has been discovered and prepped for human colonization. Besides being a new home for humanity, this system holds a treasure trove of exotic and known resources that humanity needs in order to maintain its existence and expand its exploration of the galaxy. As the acting commander you have to arrange your remaining troops, Fleet and defenses to counter the onslaught of an Alien species Known as the kha'dari that considers us a threat. They will stop at nothing to wipe us out starting here. If they win they will surely follow us to Earth and destroy us! Gather & use your resources to engineer capabilities and upgrades for your fleet, build and upgrade Defense weapons, and turrets to make a last stand in hope you can outlast this attack. You are all that stands between Humanity and oblivion.

You will act as a commander with numerous defense turrets, weapons, and fleet warships at your disposal. These weapons are as followed

• Mass rail gun (low damage, but high rate of fire)

• Gauss Gun Dual Turret (Magnetic Rail Weapon heavy kinetic damage)

• Linear Magnetic Pulse laser (purple)

• ALR-Missle Defense (fires 3 missiles at nearest targets)

• ALN-Shield System( shields turrets up to 4 points when connected with shield Arc)

• RX- Electrical Arc Cannon (fires a electrical Arc beam toward a single target)

• MRA1- MicroWave Ram Amplifier Weapon (sends out high-density Microwave's to kill up to 3 targets in its path)

• D1-RA Electromagnetic pulse disruption Manifold Cannon (disables/slows ships for a # of seconds during its path to the station they can't fight back and are slowed until their engineering crew can recover)

• FA1-R “Replicator” Modular Turret(allows for the replication of 4 turret mounts around the FA1-R Modular Turret)

Warships, battleships, command ships, science ships, scout ships of varying size and scope and the ability to upgrade and strengthen their shields, speed, firing power, rate, and health.

We also are including a rich and engaging story campaign to narrate the conflict between the Kha'dari and the humans and the struggles they endure on both sides.

We are including a multiplayer set of the levels, have their own account and profile and 2D Avatar profile of a given commander from the single player campaign, whether they choose to be kha'dari, or human is their choice. A choice that has its strengths and its weakness based on the side you choose. So choose to your style of play. :)

This will include leader-boards, competition against each other, achievements. Fully dedicated anti-hack system to encourage fair play between players and teams.

here are but some of the samples we have available to display. We have a talented team of programmers and artists in which we are all hoping to achieve and produce a wonderfully engaging and fun game that will be supported by us for a good while with content updates, expansion sets, with the intent of building a wonderful gaming community in which the player always feels involved and their voice heard.

So check these out and let us know what you think. :) We hope you will enjoy the journey as much as we do. :)

Kha'dari Commander Tres're'vul:

-He is as cunning as he is strategic in all that he does. He is not forgiving and he does not forget. Having commanded numerous missions against humans, including the infamous battle of Solaris VI, he is not to be trifled with.

Human Commander Thomas Harringer.

He lead one of the first battles against the horde of the Kha'dari onslaughts against Terran colonies about the sector. He recently was graduated to the position of Admiral of the USS Kar'catanya; a large experimental Daedalus Dreadnought that was used at a decisive moment during a key battle over a key mineral resource in the Ker'is V system.

a Human Medium Battleship USS Sedera Fast and nimble, what it lacks in armor and shields, it makes up for extraordinary forward firepower.

early in game screenshot

a early rough design of some human commanders.(will have more info soon on the one on the bottom right corner)

this is an early video teaser of the game in action :) (we have updated the camera system so it is much smoother in all its movements including rebranding the game itself as well as some improved features and assets. so It will say Solaris VI for now until I upload a more up to date video teaser in the coming weeks)

http://jbrady3d.carbonmade.com/projects/4977449#1 (this was a early video teaser I pulled together from our very early gameplay. A good amount has changed with the design of the ships, explosion fx, the GUI, music, audio fx, to name a few. We currently have a basic game enabled along with a full functioning multiplayer with ability create rooms and play against each other. along with finishing up-

  • Transferring multi-player to server.

  • Menu background painting almost complete

  • New 2D player avatar profiles.

  • start of the single-player campaign lore
  • New ship, turret, & barricade designs and model sheets

here is our facebook page, As I stated earlier we are trying to ramp up interest and showcase some of our progress in our development schedule. Please feel free to visit our page and like us to keep up to date on all our progress as we lead to our indiegogo campaign at the end January to be released officially sometime between April 2014 tentatively.

https://www.facebook.com/EclipseAvalonsGate

We will be having a website up in the next 2 weeks as well so you can join the forums and community and join in the fun and speak to the developers as well as possibly have a say in what features go in as we progress in our development to release. :) I really appreciate any all support you can guys and gals can muster, spread the word, get it out there. We hope you enjoy this journey as much as we do. This is my baby and and it has always been a dream to produce a game I love and that others can enjoy as much as me. In that, I give you Eclipse: Avalon's Gate Series. I find myself blessed to have truly talented individuals on my team who are working with me to the same goal. To provide a game that is engaging, fun, entertaining, and has continued support by its developers. I hope this at least piqued your interest. :) Be well, best wishes to all you,and thank you.I hope to see and talk with you all soon.

Best Regards;

James

Just wanted to let everyone know starfall:ronin is released via the itunes store for .99 cents with a elite content update in the works already.

http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/starfall-ronin/id559689649

http://www.facebook.com/?ref=logo#!/pages/Starfall/140135319407863

Starfall: Ronin, from Pillar 4 Entertainment is a turn-based game of space combat, available to play on the iPhone, iPod touch and iPad. Take control of a fleet of ships and lead them into battle. Customize your fleets with vessels like the Cruiser, Battleship and Destroyer. Equip abilities to each ship, such as Pulse Lasers, Archer Missiles, Shields, Aft Cannons and more!
Endless game play scales as you progress, matching your own skills. As your fleet continues to grow, so will your opponents. They will hide under cover of the dense nebulae of space, and lure you into deadly asteroid fields. Can you fight your way to the enemy Space Stations and lead your fleet to victory?

thank you and have a wonderful day GS community, hope you enjoy the game.

seriously I am all for you guys making profit, but when my screen is set at 1920x1080 and ur split second video ad takes up 1/4 of my screen in the middle, and there is no way to close it or minimize it other than reloading the website, you have serious problems. you need to put these videos off somewhere, or have a static image which i dont mind, in the background like you usually have. but these videos that stream with audio or not, is highly annoyiong and intrusive its like a salesman busting down my door and pushing a product in my face like "look look look!, you gotta buy this! its full of awesome" except i shoot him and call the cops about a intruder i shotthat bargedinto my house. seriously gamespot you need to ease up off the overly done adverts. I know you make money and kick backs from game studios, but try not to make it too obvious. show some class please. I used to like your website, now I rarely come now. mainly because your ad placement and tactics are so damn intrusive and overly done. get it together.

I try to post but posting is getting incredibly hard to do due to the fact that the post page is so slow and lethargic. when i try to delete a word its always with a small delay. when the post page starts up its with a small delay. in general the posting is very slow. is there anyway around this? please reform or recode your forum post templates. so when im posting, I dont feel like im typing out of sync lol. its really annoying.

ill be leaving this site, and locking it out in my preferences so i dont accidently come back to this site. i agree on deleting my account. gamespot.com has proven they can be bought and sold to the highest bidder fundamentally discrediting themselves as a reliable, honest source for game reviews. timefor me to pack my bags and start looking to a new site to read reviews.

lets not forget the fact that Kane and lynch is indeed an atrocious game. flawed, bugged, mediocre, and down right generic game.

id like the ability to turn off tracking option so no one can track what im posting, reviewing, or saying or otherwise doing. I dont like people know my every move, my every word. Unless ur an actual moderator, or an admin i dont like or feel the need for someone to follow my moves, feels kinda creepy.

he is on my contact "tracking me" list i dont like it. I feel i should have at least an option to consent on whether or not I will allow that person to "follow" my posts, and everything i do lol. please enable a turn off trackign options please. I asked this person to disable his tracking of me but i guess he either doesnt speak english (from brazil) or doesnt care to take me off, which makes me even more perturbed. in any event I was told by a moderator to come here to post for a site suggestion. I would like an option to be enabled so i can turn off the tracking option so i cant be tracked by other members. thank you.
