Hold on a tick, is this our very own strategy game? Like Planetarian and Imperial Conflict?  |

Garner, I gotta hand it to you.. you've captured the essence of Planetarion, but it's FREE!!
Great job on this game, I'm really enjoying it... though the turns are quite strange.
I started with 50 then it went up to 56?
And what happens when we run out? |

Read the tutorial... it explains about turns.
In a nutshell...
Turns are only there to restrict the amount of 'things' you can do in a given timeframe.
You get 1 turn given to you every 5 minutes of real time that passes.
This means you have 288 turns per day. Just like everyone else.
As you use up your turns, obviously your turn count goes down. Run out and you'll have to wait until you get some more... usually only a few minutes if you only need that one extra 
I've never played Planetarion so I couldn't say about it's essence 
Naturally I've heard of it however... who hasn't?
This game's roots is far more towards 'AstroNest', a game that died about 4 years ago (although has since made a semi return to Korean only players) and one that DG and I played.
AstroNest introduced me to the whole idea of browser based games and although its been 4 years... I created one of my own. 
This isn't that free... if you look at the 'Research' screens, you'll see a fair chunk of the researches are currently marked as Unavailable. PC will be bundled in with a package of things we're putting together on the site in order to raise the much needed funds to keep the site running.
Theres more than enough in the free version however, theres nothing else lost... just all the really good stuff. |

I hope staff get this for free in return for their brilliant work |
| Meh... |

I assume it'll run within any browser because its esentially just a normal webpage. |

Try a translator?
Garner i think there are a few bugs in the game...
1-Sometimes it says a planet costs like 60 mil, but turns out to cost like 5-6, and why do they cost SOOO MUCH...
2-Some images are broken, on the planetary conquest main page
3-A few small typos, but they arent important
Overall, GREAT GAME! |

Planetary Conquest was not designed to be translated. Theres just too much of it to be worth it.
Sorry but you'll have to do with Babblefish or something similar.
Planetary costs - you have no idea the 'fun' we've had with that over the last few months. I thought it was all working however... its charged me exactly what it said it was mind...
I'll keep an eye on it.
Opera hides broken images... I'd not noticed anything. I'll check it out shortly.
If you post the typos into the bug forum I'll get around to fixing them up.
Thanks |
