- Dev Blog #4: In-game visuals and Playable Factions - 21 November 2020
Every aspect of our development at the moment is labled as design, gameplay, or sugar improvement. So I would like to tell you a bit about each of them. Hello everyone here is the Egor "Din" Morozov, founder of Fatal Error Games, and today I would like to tell you about what we have achieved in last months. Design We have suddenly noticed that all in-game textures and UI look blurry, and during the investigation, we found that game was not actually ull HD all that time. More specifically it was mobile-like 800x450 scaled up to 1920x1080. God, i was so sorry to admit it. So we spend some time redrawing all UI, scenes and lables to higher quality. We alse made some huge improvements in particle systems and animations. As you can notice, now every spaceship and object in battle have 6-seconds animation loops, which change each other (almost) seamless. So we made animations for idle, dodge,…

Hello everyone. We're keep informing you about our game. Actually, there is only 10 days until release, and we're working at our best to make... Tutorial. It would be really inconvenient to release a game without at least first and last mission, but we have not many people and time. So we decided that new story missions would be added along with Major updates (which would still contain animations, mechanics, events, etc). However, we are glad to announce that it is possible to change color of your ship in game. There are two colors available by default, United White and Honored Black, for UNN and Black Knights factions, and you would be able to try it out at 30 June 2020. There would be five more color schemes for every ship in game, accessible with our new DLC. Here is a little sneak peek how it is to play a Rainbow Fleet...

- Dev Blog #1: Release Date and Roadmap - 2 June 2020
Dear players, I think you have already added the game to wishlist and subscribed for news. Here is our first Dev Post about further plans. Why Free? Why DLC? As you have noticed, Discordia would be Free signle-player game without in game currency. Why that? Because we don't want the game price to affect you experience within. That's why we would release Cosmetics DLC along. If you really care about making this game a better place - you would be able to support Devs with this optional piece of cosmetics. Price of DLC would be around 5$, maybe less. When do you release? At the moment we are passing Steam moderation of in-game content, and if we pass successfully, Release Date would be 30 June, 2020. There is a small chance that release would be postponed, but it will not affect Roadmap and Features scope. Features? What do you have in mind? Ok, here is a short-list of updates for 2020: Be…
