I have gotten comments that the game does not look RPGy enough. After further questioning to determine what was missing I was informed that I lacked a "Ding Screen". Therefore, I present the Portas Aurora: Arrival "Ding Screen".
I am sure that it needs to be modified to some degree, but for now it l…

Version 1
Version 8 - Blue
Converting the game to 1280x720 has opened up more space for information and while that can be great for players it was hard to get the space to look "right". The grey squares are Skills (smaller boxes) and Talents (larger boxes) we do not have art assets for them so I have…

Brief Development History:

- Dec. 2011 - An Avata…

Continuing to upgrade Portas Aurora: Arrival's GUI to have a more "polished" look. Sadly it takes a fair amount of time.
I also rearranged the stats of the ships and added a Hull Strength % at the top to allow users to have a greater understanding of how stats work in Portas Aurora: Arrival.
If you h…

In an earlier entry I shared the Portas Aurora: Arrival Fund Raising Pitch video. I asked people to evaluate it and provide feedback and list of points. Well after sorting through all of the feedback I realized that there is a huge difference between what I thought people would want to see and what…

A few people have asked about the differences between Ship Hull Classes.
Therefore, I have made a video outlining some of the differences between the Scout and Frigate Hull Classes.
I hope the video can clear some of these questions. However, if they create a few more that is great too…

- The X's in the Fleet Setup and Ship Design Screen will be changed to lock icons
- The game will now have the Gird Coordinates turned "OFF" as the default
- The Ship Status Window wi…

Looking for evaluation and feedback of the video.
Some questions:
Looking for evaluation and feedback of the video.
Some questions:
- Was the video too long?
- Was there enough game play?
- Was the game play that you wanted to see?
- Was there missing information?
August 31, 2012
However, on a side note are the X's in the picture confusing? I have received some questions about them and was wondering how wide this confusion extended?

Any feedback people can provide would be great. This is my first Dev video and I have zero illusion that I would be good the first time out.
A couple people said that the introduction area of the video was dull and too long.
