New Project







While I am determined to keep improving Starship Corporation, I also created the prototype for a much smaller game that is expressing a lot of my personal experiences, offering a unique opportunity for players to do so as well: It is a self-authoring interactive novel – very different from my first game, but also similar in some ways. If you are curious what this is all about, take a look at it here:

Cruise Ship DLC







The new Cruise Ships DLC adds countless hours of gameplay by allowing players to dabble in space tourism. Become the next intergalactic Richard Branson and expand your business to cater established cruise lines or start your own. Design luxurious vessels for guests looking for the ultimate space vacation, against the backdrop of some of the universe’s most beautiful spaceports!



Whether building a small ferry, a super-yacht or a luxury liner – you will need to find the right balance, choosing from 9 different new fuselages.



The range of new rooms included in this new content, is not only necessary to house passengers in different classes aboard your cruise ships, but also to entertain them in many different ways: movie theatres, restaurants, casinos, gyms, pools, bars, restrooms and laundry rooms not only influence the happiness of your guests, but can also produce good profit.



You will also need the help of a new crew type (steward) to maintain the recreational facilities for optimal efficiency in order to keep you customers happy.



Key Features:



• 9 new fuselages, from small ferry to large cruise ships

• 12 new contracts from cruise line companies

• 16 new recreational facilities

• New crew type: Steward

• New Crew Management Mission: Cruise Ship Operation

RELEASE!!!







After 5 and half years of development Starship Corporation is finally being released on Steam!

I want to express my gratitude to all those who were kickstarting this project in 2012, and who were helping to improve gameplay with their feedback during early access. I have learned so much during this time, and I am excited to share the final result with the world.

A huge "thank you" also goes out to IndieGogo and Iceberg Ineractive – without them this project would not have been possible.

Starship Corporation at GDC







I am very glad to announce that I will be attending the Game Developers Conference in San Francisco in March. Living under a rock and completely focused on creating the game of my dreams, I am very excited to meet other developers who share the same enthusiasm and love for playing and developing games, and I am especially looking forward to finally see all the great guys from Iceberg Games in the real world. It will be awesome to finally show features of Starship Corporation that have been secretly in development and to talk about what the future might bring. If you attend as well or happen to live in the San Francisco area – send me a message and let’s meet up!

Level 3 has just been reached!

Starship Corporation will now get all those elements that I love about games:



a detailed and challenging sandbox mode

a persistent online universe, where the players create the world. “Game experience my change during online play” – I love that phrase!

AND a story/character driven campaign that will supply a thrilling “WHY?” to all the players, who already mastered the “HOW?”. Thank you all so much for giving me the opportunity to create all that.

05.10.2012

The IndieGogo campaign is closed, and achieved an amazing budget of $ 20,550!

Thank you all so much!

The Pre-Order option (with extra content) will still be available until Beta-Release - so I am confident, that we can even reach Level 3 to make the single-player campaign possible.
