hey ZPS if you havent already you may want to consider applying for the unity 2010 awards ( http://unity3d.com/awards/ )

Thanks Mr. forgefire!, I've just submitted both Bullseye and Running Man on their nomination page.

Time will tell if we can compete. Last year Max and the Magic Marker won some of the awards (I completed it) and that was and still is one impressive Unity game.

For the love of the game,

ZPSHicks

I've already sold this game to a few of my friends through its awesomeness. They're just waiting for it...

Take your time! Make it as good as it can be. I know you can!

Hey, youd be the most welcomed spam bot to date (not saying they are good, just saying relatively) due to being spearhead :-P

But yeah man, I'd say spread the word through all possible channels/methods. Good luck, and ill check out your channel when I get home. :)

Edit: Although, at this point, I'd find it hard to spread much interest until there is some new playable or other major content, announcement, or release. IMO.

Thanks Aevaris I appreciate it :) I agree with you totally I just love the concept of this game so much I had to try to spread it :)

edit: I give you permission to make fun of my terrible commentary, it was so hard to live commentate and play this game at the same time :)

The awards are in and IM didnt win, however bullseye was runner up for best visual design. To bad, but being runner up with that many submissions isnt all that bad ;)

Hey, I guess Mr. partypooper from the beginning of this thread is feeling a little stupid seeing as ZPS is back up and running (man) XD

I'll spread this around Facebook and Gametrailers and other forums I frequent :D

EDIT: Apparently Chris Stead (editor for Game Informer magazine Australia is happy for me to send in a letter for the Feedback section) I shall do that also, see if I can't get you a few more peeps)

Nice! and applause for the IM humor haha.

Hey I posted this on another thread but if anyone is good with photoshop, there are ways to tag walls in TF2 during matches.

something like this: example

This could be a bit of word spreading during matches.

I still have faith, my marginal investment might not go a long way but I feel it worthy =D

Gaming is my passion and its nice to think about the days of great games being made in basements.

I've dugg it aswell.

Also posted it on the Steam group.

Steam is a perfect platform for this game. I hope they will pick up IM, I have used Steam for years and cannot describe how happy it makes me to not have to put a disc in the PC every time I want to play a game.

It'll be digital either way I am assuming, and Steam doesnt exactly refuse a lot of people because it is an easy profit for them. All Steam has to pay is server bandwidth and space and they get a small cut of each sale. So I am sure they would be happy to do it. Its all about if ZPS wants to do it that way or not.

Pre-ordered.

I hope theres an option for a female character when the game is released! Voiceovers would be all that'd need hehe.

Sent the link to several friends. Id been pondering pre-order, but got money in today, yay!

This girl needs more survival horror aciton and alien smashing.

@Niyoru - welcome to the Interstellar Marines community and thank you for your preorder and support!.. I guess that Aevaris will also give you the unofficial "offical" welcome in time :-).

We will have female marines in future releases. You can actually see a model of the female marine in this article (Picture of the Week 0002).

I love you Kenneth.

Well, i tend to give my support to a lot of indie games out there, as I truly want them to reach retail. Ive found they bring excellent variety to my gaming experiance (Interstellar marines, for example, looks incredible. I have played a little of the web-game-test thingys)

simply, ive gotten rather tired of the 10000 call of duty clones ;) hehe.

I look forwards to release! And female marines. Hope you guys dont pull a NS2 though! (they say they wont be able to get the female marines into the game till at least 2 months after release due to 'issues' with models)

edit: Oh the female model is awesome! I really hope it stays like that ;)

Dont personally like games where female = huge tits and no armor yet still just as armored as the males who are walking tanks!

... hmm... this is strange, a paradox perhaps? We all know there are no girls on the interwebs, yet you say you are one. This can only mean...

OH MY GOD, ITS A GIRL?!?! WHAT DO WE DO?!!!1!1!one! (j/k of course)

But seriously, welcome to the forums and to spearhead and to the community. :D I hope you enjoy your stay here. We can be kinda a crazy bunch at times and sometimes just down right insane (im looking at you weirdoo). XD :-P

Some stuff around the community you may wish to know about are the Poll of the Week, Picture of the Week, Question of the Week, Ask the Developers (a weekly question from the community is answered by the devs), the forum search function, some pretty cool growth graphs (that are somewhat accurate, but are 100% accurate on the big picture), the taste of the community video made by voyager33mw, and if you want to get competitive with bullseye you can check out the bullseye rankings.

If you got any questions just be sure to ask, and someone here will answer yah. There are no dumb questions, unless its a dumb question. XD

Edit: Sorry for the delay, now that im back at school, classes taking up my time. lol.

Er dette spil bare dødt. Eller gider de bare ikke engang selv skrive herinde.

Er selv Spearhead og får kun de tilfældige mail med bla bla bla.

Er der noget aktuelt vi kan forholde os til

Og nu ikke alt det sædvanlige mundgyl........

For os der har været med siden starten er der sgu ikke sket meget. Running man ja og...... Ville gerne se noget mere konkret om det spil både jeg og andre har været med til at donere til. Vi er nu i 2011 og en (igen) Running Man konkurence er ikke nok til at få blod på tanden igen.

I ender med at bliver Duke 2. Og så ser vi jo først jeres spil i 2017+

Google translator for the win.

Hey there, TheEye666. You are supposed to speak english on the forums. But in any case, yes, I will admit and agree there is not much new stuff. But the dev's are trying their hardest to keep us in the loop without spoiling the whole game.

You should check out Ask the Devs (a weekly question asked from the community to the devs), picture of the week, and question of the week. For new stuff. Sure it isnt a slice or anything, but making a AAA game totally indie is quite difficult. We all know this game is some time away, so we just have fun here with each other, talking about whatever hits our fancy. And even if the game doesnt come out, this is a great community to enjoy.
