ISG Quick Update #3 – Espionage

Hello everyone, for today’s quick update we’ll talk about espionage in ISG as for a quick development status.

Dexana is known to be a smuggler and a pirate. However, what many may not know is that she’s also a skilled saboteur and psy-ops agent. If you need something blown up she’s your gal. She also has a way with people and will be able to convince others into joining your cause. Showing basic skill in espionage will allow her to steal low-level technology from your rivals. The only spy skill she lacks is to go into Deep Cover and do Intel Gathering missions.

Dexana’s last spy job went well, so you may pick a spy skill for her to level up. Will she be an expert psy-ops agent and be able to persuade the most loyal rival leaders, or will she be able to destroy a Star Fortress, a planetary defense shield or even a Titan-class ship just prior to your invasion? It’s your call.

This is the nature of the espionage mechanic in ISG. Some leaders will obtain spy skills which will allow them to blow up military installations, steal technologies, influence rival leaders or to go into deep cover missions to obtain all your rival’s deepest secrets.

With espionage finished, we’re pleased to report that all the core features of ISG are now completed! That’s right, all main features are now all in.

Now, we enter the final stage of development where it’s all about improving, polishing and finalizing all aspects of the game. The next release will have a ton of new features. Expect it to be released this fall.

In the meantime, if you want to have a look at the game at its current state (build as of March of this year), and haven’t pre-ordered yet, you can do so here.

We’re making the most complete and comprehensive Turn Based Space 4X ever developed, and we count with your support to make it happen!
