Aussie Gamedev Spotlight: Lunar Flight

Unread postby News Portal » 30 Mar 12, 12:08 pm

Here at games.on.net, we love our Australian game developers - and even more so when they come from our very own forum. Shaun "sh0vor" Edwards has been working away on his space-flight-sim [app=8271]Lunar Flight[/app] for some years, and is just days away from a full Steam launch, putting him right up there with some of gaming's biggest names.

That moment when you're doing a transport mission and perfectly time your rocket-burn then drift silently for several kilometers before repositioning, burning for just the right amount of time and then lightly landing on the platform...

I don't want to give much away about my upcoming review, I'll just say that Sh0v0r is one of us and you could comfortably go and support him right now by buying a copy from Desura (or upon Steam release).

Well done on the Steam thing. I hope you have great success with it, you certainly deserve it I think. :)

Doesn't look like my kind of game, but if there's a demo I'll check it out. Congratulations on getting into Steam, and good luck with the future!
