Watchface Tutorials

With Googles latest update, it has added the Watch Face API to Android Wear Lollipop. Now you can create your own Watchfaces. Our Watchface tutorials will show you how to start with Android Wear and Android Studio. At the moment, most tutorials are only available in german, but we will translate them soon.

LibGDX Tutorials

The first LibGDX Tutorial is online and other will follow. They cover different topics of game development. As the name implies, they use the LibGDX Framework, which is a platform independent framework for Java. Publish your games on Windows, Mac, Linux, Android, iOS, Blackberry and HTML5, and all that with the same codebase.

Finally on itch.io

Solar Colony is done! OK, it's more a prototype than a real game, but you can play it anyway :)
The (ugly) source code is now available on GitLab.

Getting started

First of all, every space station needs storage for gases, liquids, solids and energy. If a storage is full, your machines stop producing! So make sure that you have always enough space.

Most buildings will cost metal and electronics, but some will need a bit more, like plastic. To get metal, you need a Meteor Collector, which will produce rocks. The Rock Crusher can use those rocks to produce metal and silicon.
To generate electronics, you need a Circuit Factory. It will then generate electronics out of silicon and plastic. But how do we get plastic? Plastic is generated by the PlasticGen, which will in turn need again other things...

So as you can see, you have a lot to do. At the beginning it might happen that your people will die pretty fast, so I guess, you will have to reload a lot of savegames ;)
