They have never before told us what is coming until it is done ;-)
| Cooler | 2011-06-15 21:02:36 |
It will be like AM :) Not like Spectromancer.
| Wisdom | 2011-06-29 01:09:12 |
I have been with this game from the start and they(like Cooler) have always kept us up to date.
| Narvek | 2011-07-05 18:22:54 |
Would hope so, I like AM more than Spectromancer...
| gerryq | 2011-07-24 09:26:13 |
Downloading Astral Towers now!
I still think I was morally right when I said they never tell us what is
coming, becaise it was only a month ago and Astral Towers was probably
already finished and just getting some polishing :-D

any news about a game update wit hnew cards or even a true sequel? the new spectromancer expansion has been out for a while now so it's time to update AM!
| Cooler | 2012-12-13 16:10:59 |
After a long pause AM-2 development resumed. Also AM will be released on iPad soon.

Excellent!

Good news. Are you planning an AM2 public beta test? And will the new game have a new engine? The second question is especially interesting, because the AM1 engine allows numerous cheats and hacks. For example any client has the possibility to know all the opponent's cards and such cheat is undetectable. After I discovered this I've stopped playing AM1.

Spectromancer have the same engine but it's not possible to know opponents cards there. Basically engine will be the same, but more cross-platform. | Lex_xl | 2013-01-17 06:50:56 |

We didn't forget about Android. We just have zero experience and knowledge about Android development. Last year we spent on studying IOS SDK, tools, development pipeline and porting our game engine to IOS. So now we can easily port AM to iPAD (since it's screen resolution is the same). | harry666 | 2013-01-24 12:47:04 |
Is it out yet?:d
For Astral Masters 2, I'd suggest an extended Sacrifice-System, as it is used in Scrolls.
That means: A Player may sacrifice up to 1 Card per round. Everytime a Card is sacrificed, the owner can choose whether to gain 1 universal Mana or to draw 2 new Cards.

When will AM be on IPAD. I am dying waiting for it. | markgil | 2013-03-30 11:46:12 |
so is there a timeline as to whe AM2 will be released? can we expect it in 2013?
| Cooler | 2013-04-01 14:30:37 |

awesome! thankd for the info!

| markgil | 2013-11-27 15:48:02 |
is AM2 still on track for an early 2014 release? it's almost here you know!  | Cooler | 2013-11-27 20:50:15 |
is AM2 still on track for an early 2014 release? it's almost here you know! No, it's slightly shifted.
| markgil | 2013-11-30 12:26:03 |
thanks Cooler-hopefully mid 2014 then?... No, it's slightly shifted.
| Cooler | 2013-12-02 15:07:46 |
Yes.

AM2 would be great- but simply improving on AM1, maybe rewriting the code- could be a great step forward- and II hope to be able to provide some input, I don't know if I've ever posted on these forums but I understand and follow them and the game, I have played Astral Masters, Spectromancer, (and also mtg and poker and texas hold'em) many thousands of times also, and I appreciate all games immensely. I see so many improvements that could be made to both astral masters and spectromancer and could see how different types of games could be designed based on the same premise and to make the game ultimately customizable AND multiplayer would be amazing, and I would love to be able to help. The Glass Bead Game by Herman Hesse inspires many levels of thinking about such deep strategy games. We should create a community "Future Desired Features" List to evolve both Astral Masters and Spectromancer into the ultimate customizable game- in fact they could be combined into one game and take the world by storm, with a lot of work.
- N i g h t n i g h t l y @ a o l . c o m Hope AM2 gets released soon, I want to give you my money.

| markgil | 2014-04-12 18:21:35 |

| NightsChild | 2014-05-16 16:26:29 |

| markgil | 2014-09-22 22:43:16 |
hello....is there anybody in there...just nod if you can hear me... is there anyone at home?
3Q is up in a few days and ZERO news on AM2. very disappointing imo.
forget about the astral 2. I heard that the game maker has already moved on to the spectromancer...
| markgil | 2014-09-26 11:15:19 |
thats all good too-if they have abandoned AM for SM, as long as they are working on a new game either one is fine with me. just wish they would post an update to let people know whats going on instead of posting about a 1Q14, then 2Q14 release and then nothing at all.
| markgil | 2014-10-16 23:24:48 |
looks like the AM sequal will be called "Astral Heroes" now and is coming out in 2015: from Cooler on the Spectromancer forums: "So the storyline looks like this: Astral Tournament (2002) ---> Spectromancer (2008), Astral Towers (2011) ----> ??? ..................... Astral Masters (2004) -----------------------------> Astral Heroes (2015) In this flow each next project is more complicated and large (except Astral Towers, which was quite small and cheap). And making a remake is a pretty straight plan."
Why i never know anything about ASTRAL TOWERS????? that game is not at apus software Web..... and nobody plays in the online league
| markgil | 2015-03-06 11:26:18 |
stll no offical word about Astral Heroes? is it still expected to be released in 2015?
| Cooler | 2015-03-12 14:30:29 |

Im so excited...
Astral Masters and Spectromancer are two of my favourite games of all time!
Cant wait to throw my money on you!
| Akumala | 2015-04-28 22:49:18 |
FINALLY a modern card game with random decks! (Right ?)
Im so tired of playing with and against the same few standard decks ALL THE TIME, no matter which card game...
| markgil | 2015-05-11 22:53:59 |
Cooler,
any idea of an approximate release date for Astral Heroes other than sometime in 2015-such as 2Q, 3Q, 4Q?
| Master of law | 2015-09-12 18:13:53 |
hearthstone is here, dont wait this ugly designed am2..3..4..10, developer is slow turtle
| markgil | 2015-09-13 20:49:00 |
hearthstone is here, dont wait this ugly designed am2..3..4..10, developer is slow turtle no thanks-not interested at all in hearthstone so will wait for Astral Heroes which will hopefully be out in 2015.

The game is mostly ready. Beta testing will be started in December. So, December is almost over... You wont disappoint us another time, right?
| Rainbow_Lotus | 2016-03-12 12:26:43 |
I saw the Astral Heroes Website is up, and theres a leaderboard, so people are already playing.
When i try to register, however, an error occurs...
Is there a way for me to play the game at the moment?
| Cooler | 2016-03-16 16:55:31 |
The game is up and running as we finally launched open beta testing! :) Modified by Cooler on 2016-03-16 16:57:33 |
