Hello everyone!

We may have been a bit silent for the past few months, but rest assured, it was for good reason :) This dev diary’s topic is about the new and free! 1.5 major update; the improvements and what it brings new to the table.

Let’s explore some of the major changes of 1.5 Beta, and later on you can check out the details of the update and try it for yourself and offer your feedback to the Devs!

New Galaxy Shapes

This was a highly popular feature request by the community, and it finally makes it in for 1.5. On top of the squarish shape the game offered, we now also have Elliptical, Ring and Spiral-shaped galaxies!

It’s nice and pleasing to the eye to see different galaxy shapes, but even more interesting are the new gameplay dynamics that should emerge from the different galaxy...

1.4.4 ‘Space Monsters Revamped’ Update Released

Hello everyone!

It’s ISG’s 3rd anniversary since it first released officially! [​IMG] Wow, how time flies, isn’t it?

To celebrate the occasion, we’re running a sale, and we thought of doing something special, so we have a nice surprise and gift for all of you who have supported us and bought the game. We’re offering revamped versions for all the game’s Space Monsters (Space Dragon, Crystal Entity, and Space Amoeba) and their respective offspring versions in this new free 1.4.4 update.

The anniversary sale and the 1.4.4 update will be up at 10am PDT / 1:00pm ET / 7pm CEST today.

Please meet the adult versions (the offspring versions are based on these but still significantly different).
A big shout out to our artists Igor Puškarić and Dario Dominguez for the great 3D modeling work!
