Main Points
A lot of work is going into Metal planets as they are man-made as opposed to all the other planets being natural, it required a lot more time and effort than previous planets as they have to design actual structures for the surface of the planet.

They are still quite far from finishing the metal planets.

Personally for me metal planets are the most exciting as they are very reminiscent of the Death Star from Star Wars!

They will be at PAX to show off more content to the public. So if you live near and like PA go visit them!

One of their interns (Brandon Orden) has become a full member of staff and is working on their Lava planets! He seems to love the word "cool" as he uses it rather lot. He is trying to make the lava look as organic as possible with it looking hotter in the middle of a pool and cooler as it reaches land.

They stated at the end that Artillery and the Catapult (A missile launcher) will eventually use their ammo system so they won't just keep on firing, they will need to build their ammo by the sounds of it.

They will be making a focus on water and underwater units to make them a first class citizen as right now they aren't working too well.

They are stalking talking over Gas Giants, they will be primarily an orbital unit playground (so think weapon satellites).

The game will be getting prettier thanks to a new programmer called Steve.
