    Since everyone is so excited about XBone and PS4 - we PC gamers felt a bit left out.

    Here is a fictional commercial of one of our ships inside the game engine.

    This is the 300i which is a player ship inside our universe. Crank it up to 1080p baby !

    <iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/JrQ0qMRZ_1Q" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

    You can read about it here on today's comm link post.

    Check out the brochure for detailed specs.

    We also hit $10.2 and are doing a 24 hour live stream this coming Friday.

    Any word on release date? YaosDirtyBoner grows more flaccid as I await this game.

    Ficking cool

    So DaDakota

    Does it get easier/funner or harder/more stressful to do your thing as the technology ups the bar on speed and graphics? I suppose competition comes out of nowhere. But still assume funding sources are a constant that is hard for newbies to tap into. Or maybe stuff like kick starter makes that easier too

    I can see you playing a real life equivalent of Wack-a-Mole to keep the upstart brats at bay. Ls

    The 300i video even made it onto Kotaku. Impressed the author.

    When does the Hornet get it's video, and is it going to get any add-ons? I'll shell out a few bucks to upgrade my ship to "flying tank" status.

    That's really cool -- what's the back story -- are they living in an age where you can buy exotic spaceships like rich people today buy jets?

    They are living in an age when buying a space ship is as common as buying a car.

    The 300i is a luxury ship, much akin to today's BMW level of purchase.

    There are much bigger ships coming up.

    We are building a universe that allows folks to play in a sandbox that supports multiple types of game play.

    And we juts passed the Pebble Watch as the number 1 crowd funded project of all time, and still going strong.

    I am gassed, that was fun, the fans continue to shock us with their enthusiasm.

    We are humbled by all of this.....just shockingly exciting to be here.

    And here is the Directors cut of that video - all in game assets, and in the game engine.

    Consoles...PFFT !
