We are excited to announce that we will be showing off Reassembly at the Indie Megabooth at PAX Prime at the end of August, just a few weeks away! We will be at kiosk 19 of the Minibooth section – if you will be at the convention come say hi, try out the game, and grab some fliers.

We decided to change the name of our game from “Gamma Void” to “Reassembly”. The new name is more specific, descriptive, and meaningful and we think better is a better match. We also wanted to avoid confusion with several other games which also have the word “Void” in their title, in particular modular spaceship building games “Kinetic Void” and “Void Hunters.” Our website will be updated over the next few days to reflect the change and the next alpha build will have a new title screen.
A few people have contacted me asking when the next alpha build will be going out and whether they are included in the alpha program.
The plan is for the next official alpha build to go out some time in August. If you are on the alpha list you will get an email, and I will also make a post here. If you emailed me about the alpha build and I haven’t responded yet, don’t worry, I will go through everyone before sending out the email. No one has been removed from the alpha list.
I put a color picker in the new-game-screen to allow personalizing your faction. I’m excited to see what people come up with!
I love it when bugs turn out to have really cool effects. I was messing around with the HDR effects rendering and accidentally stopped clearing the floating point weapon and particle effect FBO in between frames, so the effects just pile up. Probably not something I can use directly in the game, but cool enough to share.
I’m going to be at the Game Developer Conference in San Francisco from March 17th to March 21st. If anyone wants to see a demo of Gamma Void or just grab a beer – send me an email!
