Matrix Games Forums

I'm incredibly eager to see this game come out; I really want it to succeed. How can I support development efforts, other than to tell people I enjoyed playing BARIS with (oh, so long ago) about it?

(I sincerely hope the game offers more than BARIS with a new "skin". But even if it doesn't, I enjoyed that game so much that I'll still be buying a copy as soon as you decide to make it available.)

Thanks for your efforts! Patience is the hard part...

Hello Nikolai,

Welcome to the forums! Thank you for your support. You're not alone, we also want the game to succeed [:)]

At the moment the biggest bottleneck in the development is yours truly, since managing the project takes quite a lot of my time and I'm the only programmer in the team. In any case, the beta will be ready soon, so when the time comes we'll announce it in the forums and you'll be able to sign-up for it.

We believe SPM offers more than BARIS: more programs, more missions, the fact that you need to manage three types of personnel: Astronauts, Scientists, Engineers and Technicians (SET) and Flight Controllers, so I guess you won't be disappointed. BARIS is a great game and we're doing our best in order to SPM even better.

Cheers,

Forgive me for being presumptuous, but do you need any help with that? I'm a software engineer with 11 years of experience in all sorts of languages.

Thanks for the update! I'm eager to see the beta once it's released!

No worries, I appreciate the gesture [:)] We're evaluating the possibility of bringing someone on board to give me a hand, but it's tricky because I'm really time-constrained (I also have a day job).

On a related note, if you happen to be on the other side of the Atlantic in mid-July, Buzz will attend HISTORICON, see this link for more info.

Cheers,

I could show my support if you'd kindly make an Android version. I hate Apple.

The game will be available on Android, so you won't have to purchase an iPad in order to play SPM [:)]

Apologies for that. I'll let the marketing guys know so that they can update the webpage accordingly.
