SGJ Podcast #51: Ascending Into Our Own Personal Space with The Space Game

Fly in Space in Your Browser!

A little while back, I got an email from the developer of Ascent – The Space Game, James Hicks, telling me about his game. I love when I get emails like this because I can’t track down all the space games myself, you know? ;) So after playing the Unity-based browser space sim (and don’t let that fool ya, it’s a totally awesome game), I contacted James and asked him to come on the podcast to tell us more about his game. This game, to me, is totally reminiscent of Frontier: Elite II, and that is a very, very good thing. Therefore please join Jim and I as we talk to James about his game, Australia, game development and a bunch more. :)

As always, if you have questions or comments on this show, leave ’em in the comments below. You can also email us at hail@spacegamejunkie.com if you’d like to ask us questions or leave comments that we’ll likely read on the show itself. ;) Thanks for listening folks, and enjoy! :)
