Just so everyone is in the know:
Trese Brothers LLC has submitted "Star Traders RPG" to the Apple App Store as of 11/14/2012. We're in the queue for review by the Apple Team and have our fingers crossed.
Porting Star Traders RPG to the iPhone has required a lot of focus and we hope that it will bring many new members and visitors to the forum.
Not only that, but the release cycle for Apple App Store applications is different than Android Google Play and will let us easily alternate between the two for new releases.
Hopefully things will start to pick back up around here soon!

Well as an ipad'er looking forward to trying Star Traders out.
[Need to thank PocketTactic's for nod.]
I think Apple's queue is currently 8 days so perhaps by the 22nd?

I picked it up (and bought the Elite upgrade). Owen over at Pocket Tactics is pimping it pretty hard. Good game so far! I might have a lot of questions soon  |

Cory,
I bought the iOS version and I am wondering if there is cross platform support for Rosters.
Thanks for continuing to excell at your job!!!

hellion - there is no cross platform support for Rosters (iPad to Android, for example). Without putting in some network permissions and some servers, which as a small indie shop we can't support at this time, we couldn't get the two to talk to each other. You'll have to start a new set of captains on the App Store. Good luck in the Quadrant!

Cory, I bought the iOS version and I am wondering if there is cross platform support for Rosters. Thanks for continuing to excell at your job!!! To implement the game for iPhone and iPad we had to make some pretty big changes to the underlying saved game data structure. Some of those changes were to enable future features (custom difficulty, etc) and some of them were to match the iPhone platform requirements. As a result, the two games are incompatible at a saved-game level but compatible at a rules and numbers level. We discussed what it would take to make a cloud-based game sharing system for ST RPG and decided that the additional months would be something we'd best save for a future game project  |
