Galaxy’s End: “Siege Mode” video, plus developer details

First, for the good news. The developers at Tiki Games have just updated their Galaxy’s End RTS game for the PSP with a new gameplay video. This video will be showcasing more units the game will feature, with this video showing one particular vehicle’s “Siege Mode”.

As for the bad news: Tiki Games president/creative director Kevin McCann sent out a letter to PSPFanboy stating that it will be a while before they come out with more teasers of their upcoming game. The letter went on to say that Tiki games is currently undergoing talks with prospective publishers to help their project along, although it’s uncertain if they’ll be getting the deals they want.

McCann further stated that the team preferred that they be the ones to finish this project, although this will cost time – he estimated that Galaxy’s End may not be out until summer 2008. While this sounds like a long wait, the game is expected to be released as a full version, with features like single-player, multiplayer, and skirmish mode being part of the package.

Tiki Games also appears to be thinking about releasing the game as a digital download, which should ease up the studio’s manufacturing/retailer costs come release day. There will also be plans for a demo version, although its release date will be close to that of the full version. As a last note, McCann is also letting everybody know that Tiki will be making more announcements this year related to Galaxy’s End – stay posted in case we pick up news on this.
