Spokesmen for the International Space Exploration Institute report they have lost contact with the Eidolon colony ship. With a hundred crew in cryosleep on board the ship, tension is high at mission control here on Earth.
"All hopes now rest with the ship's robotic maintenance units. If they still operate, there may be hope."
- mission control flight director, Chester Moonstone.
Asimov is a lowly service mechanoid aboard the interstellar colony ship Eidolon. Carrying hundreds of frozen human colonists to a new world. When the Eidolon's computer brain
malfunctions, it falls to Asimov to undertake
a perilous journey through the bowels of the
massive ship to save his robot friends and
the precious human cargo. Solve puzzles.
Overcome obstacles. Hack hostile networks.
Evade crazed robots. Save the mission!
Based on user feedback we've updated the unlocking system. As well as your initial 3 codes you can now get an additional 'timeout' code, that resets ever sixty days. This means that under normal use, you should always be able to get a code for your game. Our philosophy is: you bought it, you own it!
We've also made the system more forgiving of hardware changes, and we've implelmented an auto-unlocking system. If you are connected to the internet, you can fill in your details on the game's unlock page and then it's just one button click to unlock your game.
Auto-unlock, and the newer codes are already part of Mr. Robot, and we'll be implementing them in an update to Starscape soon. The timeout code is live now for both games.
So what else is on its way from Moonpod? Well, we have a planned Starscape update in the works, and we'll be working on a content update to Mr. Robot, along with improvements to editor documentation and features for creating custom user adventures. We are of course, also going to be working on Game 3. It's still too early to release details about that, but rest assured, you'll be the first to hear about it!
We're also now working with veteran freeware developer Hamish McLeod, who is working on an futurustic action blaster called War Angels, which will be coming to Moonpod.com sometime in 2007. You can read more about his project here.
It's an exciting time for us, we are really enjoying being here at Moonpod and making games we would not be able to make anywhere else. We couldn't do it without your support!
Wishing you a very happy holiday!

The Moonpod team.
