We've been fortunate for Sol Survivor to catch some good reviews from both gamers and media lately, and we at Cadenza hope you are as excited as we are about the future of the budding community here!  One of the most enjoyable things we've done so far with the community is hold developer play events, and we intend to go through with another!

 

You can join the Sol Survivor developers as well as a number of gamers and game media on Saturday, 14th November starting at 11am Pacific time.  We generally run about two hours per session, but it doesn't take much to convince us to stick around a bit longer!

 

Also, for those of you following the Sol Survivor blog, we will be sadly cutting back on the number of weekly entries.  At our current phase of development, we're having to go back in time and struggle to gather content that is compelling both to read and to write about.  As we get closer to announcing our second title, we'll crank the blog schedule back up.

 

Thanks for all of your support so far with Sol Survivor, and hopefully we'll see you in game on Saturday!

The Cadenza team, in cooperation with some of the Xbox Indie Games blogging community, will be holding a weekend mulitplayer game session on Sunday, November 1st at noon (12pm) Pacific US time.  Four of the Cadenza team members will be on hand along with some really good guys covering the Xbox Indie Games titles.  We'll be playing every flavor of multiplayer, from our more relaxed co-operative mode to our fast-paced, cutthroat wars mode.  Players of all levels of skill and experience are invited to attend!

 

To join, you must purchase a full version copy of Sol Survivor from the Xbox Indie Games Marketplace.  Once you own a full copy of the game, go looking for some multiplayer games or invite one of the following gamertags to a party to get started:

Cadenza Interactive is proud to present the first Xbox Indie Games patch for Sol Survivor, available now!  Users who have already purchased Sol Survivor will be prompted to download the update upon starting the game.

 

Our official patch notes can be viewed here.

 

Also, check out the Sol Survivor forums for our Xbox Gamertag Matchmaing Thread.  Post your Gamertag and get a few multiplayer games organized!

 

As always, we're blogging about our creative process and keeping you up to date on the latest happenings on our Twitter account.  We're planning to host a developer game night in the next few days, and details of that will be posted here soon.

 

Enjoy the new patch, and we hope to see you in game!

Sol Survivor has been out now for around 48 hours, and as a team we're really excited to see how well people are taking to the project that truly is our baby.  As we work toward delivering our first Xbox Indie Games patch, we'd like to get some player feedback on things they'd like to see for our second "live" build.  We love the feedback we get, and we also love playing our game!

 

As such, I'd like to invite anyone reading this to jump into a multi-player game tonight (September 18th) at 6:00 PM Pacific time alongside some of the developers!  If you own a full-version copy of Sol Survivor, look for games being hosted by the following Gamertags:

 

Cydereal - Community Manager (Forums: Askari)
y2k4Crisis - Programmer (Forums: Elim)
TheColdEquation - Programmer (Forums: ColdEquation)

 

If you don't own a full-version copy of Sol Survivor, don't let the trial hold you back from taking the plunge!  Indie Games on Xbox can only offer 8 minutes of trial, and that's not enough to get you feeling "twitchy," like the guys over at Destructoid.  You can check out some of our early reviews on our forums by clicking here.

 

See you tonight!

Ladies and Gentlemen, Cadenza Interactive is proud to announce Sol Survivor's arrival on the Xbox Indie Games platform!  Thank you to all of the community members who pushed us through the review process, and to everyone who has supported us as we took a big leap into making this game.

We cleared review sometime through the night, and the game is now available for purchase on the Xbox.  For 800 MS points, you can jump in and get to work smashing the hordes of Ascendancy who would tear down your colonies and steal those tasty colonist souls!

 

As part of our release celebration, we're going to be hosting a multiplayer release party!  Join us on Xbox LIVE for a chat and play session with the developers.  More info here: http://bit.ly/1EVFBQ

 

See you soon!

Askari here, giving an update on the release of Sol Survivor!  We're still in review on Xbox Indie Games, and the people testing for us must be quite thorough.  As of the time of writing, we are at 75% complete with the review process, waiting on just a handful of reviews to carry us through to release.

Do you have an XNA Creator's Club premium account?  You can get your hands on Sol Survivor's review version right now!  If you don't have a premium Creator's Club account, sit tight, Sol Survivor should be out at the latest by 18th September.

See you soon!
