it could be the way of dying for losing the social game.
as opposed to getting shot out of space when losing the fighting game.

They should (in my opinion) be the focus, as most of the game revolves around the social aspect.
But do what you feel is fun, it *IS* your game, don't ever compromise your vision for it.

Re: Sol Trader
I agree. In a social game, there should be a way to lose the social game.

Re: Sol Trader
And Chris has stated that news about the book of the game will be coming soon.
I'm still sad that there was no box but a printed manual for the game will be most welcome.

Re: Sol Trader
Chris has just today posted episode 1 of his new Developer Let's Play series,
which doubles as a demonstration of many upcoming update 1.2 improvements.

Re: Sol Trader
Looking for some people who'd like to try 1.2 early and help ensure that it's stable... up for it?

Re: Sol Trader
1.2 is a ton of fun!
I've been sitting for the past few days in London as a poor PhD student, building my knowledge of the locals and patiently manipulating my way up the social ladder through strategic friendships and selectively distributed gossip: I found a little known local manager with a solid history and promptly befriended him and then bragged his virtues across London. And I'm in tight with two senators and an admiral (all of them women), one of whom wants her disgraced mother dead. It's all quite engrossing.

Re: Sol Trader
Awesome: glad you are enjoying it!
I should point out that the game is currently 50% off, for people still on the fence

Re: Sol Trader
A dev trying to give people the heads-up that their game is 75% off? I find myself ever more impressed by you, Chris.

Re: Sol Trader
Heh, thanks. I want people to try it and say nice things about it ... one more reason to do so!
New project up and coming very soon! Not a sci-fi game but hopefully will still pique people's interest here...

Many of us here have very broad tastes, and you seem to have no end of ambition for the scope of your stuff, which leads to cool shit.
