Hi guys,
It’s been a while since the last update but that doesn’t mean I stopped working on the game - on the contrary quite a lot had happened.
First, there is a new direction, a new universe, a new hero and a new story driven foundation, actually pretty much is new except the visual style.
Secondly, but not less important I’m now joined by the talented and a small teaser but this thread will remain the place for people interested in following the development of Planet Alpha 31.
Here’s the basic info for Planet Alpha 31:

Story
When mankind is forced to abandon Earth a team of explorers is send to find a new home.
After years of drifting into nothingness a suitable planet – Alpha 31 – is found and the Terra-formation begins.
About half way through the process an unknown incident causes the Terra-formation to revert with catastrophic consequences.
You, one of the last engineers left, are send to investigate the events and to resume the terra-formation process in a race against time.
Description
Planet Alpha 31 is an immersive, story driven puzzle platformer mixed with bits of exploration and action.
The events take place in a living and constantly changing world: real time day / night cycle affects everything on the planet, the Terra-formation process shapes the landscape before your eyes and the 2nd dimension that became accessible during the incident will offer a special experience.
While exploring Alpha 31 you will be aided by PIA – Personal Intelligent Assistant. She will help you investigate the events and slowly unfold the true story of what happened before your arrival.
The game-play will test both the player’s mind and reflexes on this beautiful but dangerous planet.
