New Trainees are on route to the Echo Cluster!

You may have already begun to see accounts joining beginner games with user names that look like "Trainee 42342". These accounts are coming from a new signup process that we are using particularly with Android app clients at this time. Don't be alarmed, these are real people trying out the game. At any time they can change their Trainee name by clicking on the "Change Name" link on their home page.  

We are also making substantial changes to the single player levels including more modifications and UI changes to improve the mobile experience. We are considering different game settings and options that will keep the game true to it's nature while being as mobile friendly as possible.  

From a statistical standpoint we are having a lot of success with this. An order of magnitude more users are trying Planets Nu every day and progressing through the single player levels. We hope to see more and more of them in our public games over the coming months. 

If you are a new Trainee reading this post, welcome aboard! We are happy to have you as part of our growing community and look forward to many great battles together, or against in the Echo Cluster!
