Kickstarter

Our Kickstarter campaign for Infinite Space Battle Poker, a nifty card game we made up that combines a starship combat card game with poker, is rolling.  Btw, ISBP isn't simply a re-themed poker deck.  It's a full-fledged card game that happens to work with most poker variants. It's great, and we hope you'll think so too.

Check out the Infinite Space Battle Poker Kickstarter campaign page, learn lots more and get involved.  Be sure to share the url and this news with your space gaming friends!  We want to make this game a thing of quality and we need your help, very much, to do it.

Thanks, and remember: Happiness is a warm particle vortex cannon.

Ripcord out.

Happy Space Holidays!

To celebrate the traditional Terran solstice festival, Digital Eel is proud to announce a great new update for Infinite Space III: Sea of Stars! The new version 1.1.0 introduces totally re-vamped mod support with a handy browser for launching mods, and now lets mod makers access the built-in editing tools that we used to make content for the game. We have also added some new content in the game, in the form of a new special quest featuring a special guest, the notorious Tiberian swamp pirate Arch Fenster. Oh, and just possibly a ship from that other Space Roguelike-like game created by one of our Kickstarter backers may make an appearance! 

For all of our Steam fans, this update just keeps on giving by adding over fifty achievements, as well as Steam trading cards, badges, profile backgrounds and emoticons. May the Star-Krampus be gentle!

All hands on space deck! The release of Infinite Space III: Sea of Stars is in sight! After several release candidates, the game is now polished and ready for prime time. Among the most exciting late developments, we received some last-minute art help from the one and only Denis Loubet. He really gets the feel of the Infinite Space universe. Thanks Denis! We have also made a brand new trailer video you can watch below.

The big day is Thursday, October 29th. Sea of Stars will be initially available on Steam and the Indiegamestand store, with more portals to follow. Thank you all for your support, in helping us make this game possible!

Hi everyone, we are back to work and mostly recovered from the Seattle Indies Expo. What a show! The two of us (Rich and Iikka) were there all day from 9am until 7:30pm, demonstrating the game to a constant stream of people who wanted to try it out. We even had a few players finish the game by winning one of the new major quests! The overall tone of the feedback we received was overwhelmingly positive, and we caught a number of bugs that we have been fixing in the last several days. Big thanks to the Seattle Indies for organizing this event! You should check out all the other games that were at the show as well, there was some true indie spirit and imagination on display!

As for Sea of Stars development, we have now completed building the content as well as all the major features we'll be launching the game with, and are concentrating on overall polish. In about a week, we will start a new beta testing phase that will for the first time include the Mac OS X build. Our cyborg fish-slaves are hard at work to make it happen. Stay tuned!

Greetings, astrogators! Today were are excited to announce that Sea of Stars will be one of the games featured at the Seattle Indies Expo on Sunday, Aug 30th 2015. As the name suggests, SIX is a one-day exhibition for independent game developers to get together, socialize, and show off their stuff. At SIX, you'll get to spend quality time with some of the friendliest and most down-to-earth devs around. SIX takes place during the PAX event, at a venue few blocks away and is completely free! Check out the website here: http://www.seattleindies.org/six/ 

The Sea of Stars development has entered the final stretch. We're in the process of replacing the remaining unfinished and/or placeholder art, and polishing up a number of special events and end game scenarios. Our Mac customers will be pleased to know that we're now planning to release simultaneously on both Windows and Mac OS X. We don't like to set rigid schedules, but we should be feature-complete by the Expo - yet another reason to stop by and play the game! As a teaser, below is one of the never before seen adversaries that have been added to the game recently.
