			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Almost a year ago on the <a href="http://www.galaxynomads.com">galaxynomads</a> blog I announced, that I would code the whole game in Rails. Now finally I found the muse to do just that. The first bits are done now.</p>
<p>It doesn&#8217;t look pretty yet, because I will primarely focus on the gamedesign first and make it pretty when the need arises.</p>
<p>In addistion to switching from Java to Rails, I also changed the concept of the game quite a bit. It will become no epic tale of your own tribe of galaxynomads as originally planned.</p>
<p>I forced myself this time not to make a big game like it that, because it takes such a long time to write it and I might lose interest in it again. So I decided to take some aspects of the original game idea and make a lightweight casual game out of them.</p>
<p>The idea is now is basically a duel game with starships. You will travel the galaxy and fight other players with your ship. You will have several slots on your ship to customize it&#8217;s abilities. Over time you will find new equipment for your ship that you can use to fight better players and so on.</p>
<p>I think this will be alot of fun and threre are some twists and treats I have planned for the first release, so stay tuned <img src='http://www.marcelscherf.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
