Outer Empires

I originally posted this in the Coffee House, but think it should appear here really, since the game works in OWB!

This is a brand new, space-based MMORPG. It only came out of beta at 12:00 today (BST). It currently has a browser interface which is extremely slick. An iPhone game client has been submitted to Apple for their approval. I've been playing today, and it feels like a cross between a simplified version of Eve Online and Escape Velocity. So far, I love it.

Here's a screenshot of it running in OWB under AROS.

The only problem I've found so far in OWB is that whenever a sound is played (which happens often) OWB asks you what to do with the file. I don't know if there's any way to disable sound in the game, or whether OWB can be forced to always carry out the same action.

Then play in the browser It works in Safari (desktop, not mobile). It's a fantastic game, and the devs are always around on the forums and in-game chat taking questions, bug reports and suggestions. I'm addicted already, and the iPhone version is going to destroy my life :nervous:

I've not used a desktop for Internet for months

Really? I can't hack iPhone browsing long-term.

I don't have much choice at the moment... The iPhone browser is better than my A1200 and I used that for Internet for 4 years!

Can't you use your MacBook?

I'm so infrequently at home, the iPhone has to meet my computing needs...

Moto, is the version of aros you are using the native or the icaros bunch?
It's long time since i used aros and don't know if they are improved the network cards. Last time i tried, my card was not supported.
Thanks in advance!!!
