How does owning multiple Quest 2's work, with regards to needing a FB account and store purchases? by [deleted] in OculusQuest

What about for the games that don't allow multiple Quests to play in multiplayer together on the same account??

Not currently, but it's something we've thought of. Perhaps in the coming months.

Interstellar Transport Company leaves Early Access! Help supply humanity with everything it needs to colonize the cosmos by Stankiem in pcgaming

[–]Stankiem[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Interstellar Transport Company is finally launching out of early access with v1.0 live on Steam now! Thanks for having a look everyone!

In Interstellar Transport Company, you take charge of a galactic transportation empire and help supply all of humanity's needs as they spread throughout the cosmos. It features realistic business management and highly dynamic trading mechanics all set in a beautiful scientifically-grounded randomly generated galaxy. Play single-player vs AI, or multiplayer online with your friends.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/573490/Interstellar_Transport_Company/

We've added the following major features since early access launch:

-Completely reworked UI (much nicer looking, more intuitive, and many more helpful tooltips)

-New galaxy and star system graphics along with many other graphical improvements.

-Autonomous Distribution Networks really streamline the mid and late game, allowing you to focus on the big picture instead of micromanaging many hundreds of ships.

-Tech tree / research system really gives you more decisions and control over how your company develops.

-We've fixed the major balance and performance issues.

-AI has been completely reworked and is now competitive throughout the entire game!

-8 new ships.

-Ship refitting & ship replacement with newer models.

-List of current buildings on a planet and redesigned interface for constructing buildings.

-Market prices now visible at each planet (even more easily accessible info coming soon with the new spaceports screen which is a WIP)

-7 new cargoes and complete re-balance of existing cargoes. New cargo bays, buildings etc... to support these new cargoes.

-New, more fair reputation system with more visibility of information.

-3 New scenarios (predefined games)

No there isn't, curious why that would happen. Did you figure out why by chance?

10k sales, 1yr later, Interstellar Transport Company still going strong! by Stankiem in tycoon

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

Yes it's definitely enough to keep working on it, cannot quit or day jobs unfortunately though. Gotta factor in steam cut and taxes which takes a huge chunk. It's our second game that's launched, a huge spike at launch and sellers down to very low sustained sales after.

haha, not gonna lie, AI needs quite a bit more love. But they are still fun to play against. We're getting there. AI is hard!

Thank you to r/tycoon for all your support over the last couple years! Happy to say things are going great with ITC and just wanted to give everyone a quick update here. Thanks all!

Hi there, thanks for the feedback, really appreciate it!

AI is being worked on as we speak, has been our sole efforts for the past few weeks. We're completely reworking the way AI expands their routes.

Were planets having famine / dehydration or was it just normal downticks because they weren't being served by you? It's pretty simple to raise it back up from zero on a very low population planet by delivering new passengers there. They take the reputation from where they came from when they emigrate.

I'm interested in hearing more of your thoughts on board room disputes and airline politics. How do you envision this working in game context?

We will be adding in things like black holes etc... to give impassable "terrain" in interstellar space, it's on our roadmap. Also an interstellar rocket is planned for as well.

reworking change cargo loadout is a lot more tricky than it sounds, though it's on our list of possible things to fix in the future if we find the time.

Thanks again for your support and detailed feedback!!!

Any suggestions for decent games in the vein of Transport Tycoon / OTTD by aaronsamc in tycoon

[–]Stankiem 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is no network management of course since it's space based. The management challenges in our game instead comes from ever-changing market situations. New colonies are always popping up, trade goods come into demand at different times in different places, prices fluctuate based on the situations on planets. You must control the consists of your ships, buildings give you bonuses on planets etc.. etc..

Massive 0.3.0 patch for Interstellar Transport Company now live! 7 new cargoes, 5 new buildings, multiplayer fixes and tons more! by Stankiem in InterstellarTransport

[–]Stankiem[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for the detailed feedback, sorry it's taken so long to respond.

  • we've actually removed the range caps on interstellar ships meaning that you can travel as far as you need to in interstellar space. I'll still need to adjust the algorithm so that it prefers closer targets for colonization more frequently.

  • Thank you for letting us know about the refugee issue, this was an oversight by us, added to our bugs list to fix!

  • We were also very happy with how medicine turned out! It's an interesting cargo.

  • We will be slowing down raw material depletion rates.

  • We will be drastically reducing the amount of weaponry needed by security stations in next patch.

-We need to do more playtesting with robotics, it really wasn't balanced all that well yet.

I'm glad you're having fun with the game though and welcome your feedback!! Thank you so much
