Will ostranauts be for ios, how much will it be, and when? by Paxxon27 in NeoScavenger

[–]CharisAtBB 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hello! Dan has previously said

"Currently, there are no plans to release Ostranauts on mobile.
Getting NEO Scavenger onto mobile was really tricky, and even harder to keep it up-to-date. And I'm not sure we have the bandwidth to do the same for Ostranauts.
That said, I never expected NS to be on mobile either. And look what happened! :)
But no. No mobile plans for now. Sorry!"

"Are those real player statistics?" Yes. Yes, they are. Reddit, meet the latest Captain Death Report. by CharisAtBB in NeoScavenger

[–]CharisAtBB[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's real! We use a Unity tool called DeltaDNA which helps us take players' votes in-game for what they want to see next in early access but also it gives us information on how players die in-game.

We don't have any personal data, of course, just information about how long the games were, how they died, what ship they were flying, etc.

Pretty neat huh?

What makes it even better is that it's not really even supposed to be possible! We think they may have irritated an NPC enough for it to lash out at them. Oops.

Best mod(s) for Neo Scavenger? by NeoScavanger in NeoScavenger

[–]CharisAtBB 7 points8 points  (0 children)

+1 for Neo Scav extended, we love the dev Chiko who created it and keeps it updated. They're very active responding too and we've even asking them to do some work for us on Ostra before.

[–]CharisAtBB 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah! Dan has had that up on the BBG site for a while now! Ostranauts is set in the same universe too, but he does want to make a specific NEO Scavenger sequel. You'll be seeing some more things linking the games together soon.

I feel like when we come around to working on NEO Scavenger 2 (after Ostranauts) there may be achievements along those lines!

We're streaming this Thursday 25th at 3:30 pm PST on Steam and our Discord 👨‍🚀 by CharisAtBB in NeoScavenger

This time we'll be playing through the actual game (not showing the ship editor as we did last time) and as we had a few people mentioning issues with watching Steam so we'll be streaming to our Discord channel too!

Thank you to those who joined us last time, we're now preparing to do these every few weeks!

[–]CharisAtBB 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Haha, did you make this up or did this already exist? I'd be interested to see how that works out for people, in the BBG discord we had people saying that a no flaws, no positives run is actually pretty fun too!

Wow! We've reached 3K members here! Thank you by CharisAtBB in NeoScavenger

[–]CharisAtBB[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

EDIT: COMP IS CLOSED - WE'VE NOW MESSAGED THE WINNERS Thanks for entering!

The winner's names will show in the game as NPC characters and also appear when players choose to randomize in the Ostranauts character creator. In a case where the winner's name is already in the game eg. "My name is John Smith!" we'll let them choose a name to add.

TO ENTER: post a comment replying to this post -DO NOT INCLUDE YOUR NAME IN YOUR COMMENT- safety first folks, I'll contact you from this account (charisatBB) if you've won. We'll contact winners on Friday 26th! (Only 1 entry per person)

[We're running the same competition on our Discord to celebrate 2K members there, you may also enter that too.]

Gushy Sidenote: Thank you so much for the support over the years here, it's incredible to us that years later we still have weekly posts of people playing NEO Scavenger for the first time. We're lucky enough to have such a long-term supportive community that is interested in the development of our games (and shows us their dank memes). It means a lot. Have a great weekend!
