Armada Online (AO for short) is an Online-Only, space-based RPG set in a pseudo 3/4 isometric perspective. In AO you will take part in a vast universe, taking a role as a starship captain, honing your character's skills and amassing great wealth as well as building up your ship into a great powerful vehicle. There are a multitude of different Main Guns, Secondary Systems, lots of enemies, and two different factions to play for: Nomad Empire or the United Systems. You will also be interacting with NPCs, other players and Trading outposts as well as taking part in a series of instanced scenario campaigns to further increase your overall strength and destroy Armada invaders, as well as eliminating the opposing faction.

Armada Online is in Open Alpha status. This means that while a majority of game play components (ships, movements, skills, advancement, etc.) is in place - most of the game content is still under development. Even so - Armada Online's alpha game is incredible and complex. There will be plenty for any new player to learn and enjoy and new content is being added continuously. Because it is in alpha status, be patient with any glitches and actively report them and your feedback to the official Armada Online forums to help improve the game for all. That's what open Alpha tests are for.

]]> 10 Feb 2007 11:57:25 Aster Blaster Aster Blaster (also known as Aster Blaster HS) is a remake of a game that I had created long ago, of the same name. It is a work in progress, and will feature a few different modes of play when finished. The goal of the game is to blast asteroids, but eventually you will have more goals to complete while simultaneously defending your starship from those hunks of floating rock.
]]> 17 Jan 2007 02:58:54 Space Rocks This started out as a homage to asteroids and has turned into a fun little project that I've been adding functionality and polishing it up. Please give feedback! Thanks! games@digitalblur.com

How to play Space Rocks Beta v0.3:

-Control the ship by moving the target cursor with the mouse and press 'W' or the right mouse button.

-Additionaly you can use the 'A' and 'D' keys to rotate the ship left or right (currently needs work).

-Shoot the asteroids with the left mouse button or the spacebar.

-Pause the game by pressing 'P'

-Use your ammo and thruster sparingly, you have a limited amount. Watch the icons in the upper left corner to monitor your levels. Pick up the powerups with an 'A' to recharge your ammo and powerups with a 'E' will restore your thruster energy.

-The ship icon in the upper left corner of the screen will turn darker red every time an asteroid hits your ship and will be on fire when your damage is critical mass. Pick up the powerups with the '+' in the middle to recharge your sheilds and restore the ships health. It is on loan so - you break it you buy it...

-You can pick up powerups after you destroy certain asteroids.

Have Fun!
