The Omniverse Live development continues! We have just found and fixed a bug which would give players infinite money.
This fix is implemented as a server update, so you do not need to download a new client, and it has already gone live!
Omniverse Live is now available again in the Apple Appstore!
Version 1.0.1 should fix the map crashing problem that a lot of users were experiencing, and it is recommended that all current Omniverse Live users upgrade to this version immediately.
We have decided to temporarily pull Omniverse Live from the Appstore due to a crash affecting players while in the map view.
Players who already have the game can keep on playing, but we're not allowing new downloads until we get this ironed out. A fix for the game has been posted to the Appstore and will be available in a few days. We may have a server work-around that could go live as early as sometime today.
Rest assured that we're working very hard to iron out the kinks in version 1.0 so that you have the best Omniverse experience!
We just composed and posted a promotional preview video that actually shows some Omniverse Live gameplay footage.
Check out the video below, and if you like it, keep checking back! Omniverse Live will be available as soon as Apples testers approve it for the AppStore. Best of all, it'll be FREE to try!
We have now submitted the final Omniverse Live 1.0 build to the Apple appstore! If everything goes as planned it should take Apple approximately 1-2 weeks to review the application before it goes on sale.
Also, due to Apples recent announcement about free applications now supporting StoreKit, we have decided to make Omniverse Live FREE! The game is completely playable for free, but some of the more advanced ships will require you to purchase a STAR account upgrade for $1.99. Now there is no reason not to give Omniverse Live a try!
Finally, here's a new screenshot to get you excited:
Get excited! We have finalized all features, and have even added iPhone 3.0's Storekit functionality. This will let you buy certain items in the game through your iTunes account. So now instead of spending a few hours earning credits, you can quickly pickup select items that you desperately need for $0.99. Don't worry though, you can't just buy your way to the top! Most items will still require hardwork to achieve.
