AVWW 1.0 On April 16th, Confirmed On Steam -- Also Price Drop For Final Game

[zoutzakje]

release date confirmed, very nice ^^ And it'll go on steam too. I'll be sure to buy some copies for a few friends when it does ^^ I already got 1 or 2 friends interested in AVWW

Oh that is very convenient timing. I haven't been able to play AVWW at all yet, but bought it today anyways. I am super busy preparing for an event on the 14th, so right once that finishes I will get to play the game in its retail glory.

Are there going to be achievements for AVWW, like in AI War and Tidalis?

We expect probably so, yes.  Hopefully we'll have time prior to 1.0.  There are already numerous unlockables that work more or less like achievements, but I believe that the actual achievements should be more individual-focused, different, and fewer in number compared to the unlockables.

If you need suggestions, so you don't have to spend time coming up with a bunch, I know a group of people who would be happy to come up with achievements.

I've done that. A couple times actually.

The "hard" way would be to do that while at tier 1

Given you'll be taking about 5x as much damage, I've thought about doing that. I guess I'm a glutton for punishment.

So, we had to shift the release date, it turns out: http://www.arcengames.com/forums/index.php/topic,10186.0.html

In terms of suggestions for acheivements: by all means, please do!  We'd love to have them.  That would even make a good forum thread, if you don't mind and have the time.
