i haven't been on the forums in a very very long time... i did a search, but there's a billion posts about "creeper world" or "Game 4". someone want to help me out?
it wasn't really clear that the 3 CW games were in the same universe at all... There is no mention in any video about the story line, so I'm sure that until Virgil starts coding the actual story missions, that piece of information won't be revealed.
the 3 CW games were in the same universe
in game one you play as Skarguard Abraxis
in game you hes the leader of the remaining humans
and in game three you find out more about his past
As far as I have understood, this game is game four in the Creeper World universe, but it is not Creeper World 4.
If universe is same , will we see red particles allied creeper in creeper world 3 custom missions sometimes?

Yup.Then you're lucky enough that I had the same Idea:

Please appreciate all of the physics calculations I had to do to make this system even start working... ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

That's pretty cool. I wonder if you could make a particle snake?
The particle snake was an unplanned feature in the actual Particle Fleet. Given what I have to work with, I cannot try to make snakes, it has to just happen, yanno?
New map is up, I'm sure all of you would like to examine map resources, but I'd like to maintain the code please. So you can use it in your maps, just please don't modify the scripts and then redistribute. I'll be doing some fixing based on what's already done.
Cheers and thanks for a 48-hour programming marathon! ;D ;D ;D ;D

It is possible that the Creeper Worlds and Particle Fleet could possibly be in the same exact universe, but given the theme of each game, it could mean that they exist in opposite galaxies, or something. That way, it's almost impossible for them to meet up, or be so likely, and yet they somehow dodge each other ever so slightly...
I find that the idea of Particle Fleet is that while Abraxis is lost in cryo-sleep, a new empire rises and trys to stop another invasive alien.
Spoiler
I heard in one of virgilw's videos that the Corporal Headquarters hides in Rift Space until it's believed to be safe. It's before CW3, and after CW2.

Virgil dropping the subtle hints.
That's not very subtle. More like a blatant hint. :)

I'd say it's a subtitle hint ::)
That still looks awesome, though.
I'm glad you took me seroiusly when I said somewhere else that it would at least be a massive coolness factor if it was at least strongly implied ingame that the universes are connected or one and the same. ;D
Who?
That campaign menu looks very good. Only a couple months now before we get to see this in action.
Bets are still being taken...
Wonder who will win, or do you just care about getting into action in the game?
Bets are nothing to me, the play's the thing.
I do, too.
Yeah, just shut up, take my money and let me play the game, lol.
(I would advise not insulting Virgil...
...though I am fairly sure the plan is to take your money, once the game is released.)
"He didn't mean it!"
"...and I never said xe did..."
I was referencing to a TV show, but most people might not get it.
The line is common enough.
I guess that makes sense.
In the title screen for Particle Fleet, I think in one of the videos it read: "PARTICLE FLEET: A Creeper World Chronicle"
In addition:
- Ticon Corporation = The Ticon from CW 3
- Mire is very similar to how creeper spreads across land, but can't exist in space. Also, this could tie in with the red particles being a precursor to the creeper, as mire slowly evolved into the organic mass of gelatinous creeper we know today
-Some Ticon weapon technology may have worked itself into future technology. E.G. Particle Beams = Repulsors, Lasers = Blasters, MK7 = Bertha, Missiles = Launchers, Relay = Relays, Cannons = Pulse Cannons
- The amp gem and totem mechanics fit perfectly with creeper world. The forge has a crystal-like center, and totems have properties that allow them to: become more efficient over time (like amp gems), have rift-opening abilities (Singularity weapon a la CW3), and have to be charged via energy (a la creeper world in general)
