Hey guys. I know you all are a bit scared from the new announcement about spooky house so I created this thread where you can ask your questions to them and to us older devs as well.

I noticed that when updates to the game through Google Play and iTunes was mentioned earlier, the Amazon app store was not mentioned. Was this an oversight or intentional?

I think an update was sent to amazon but it failed because one of the login methods wasn't working

Question I've seen asked a lot and not answered:

What exactly will Xavi's role be moving forward? Will he be a consultant of sorts, or will he have an official role?

(I assume his involvement will taper off over time)

And question from my own curiosity:
Are the plans for new units / races the same as they were previously, or will this be decided down the road?


For those not on the English chat, this question was already answered:

Will the game move at all towards pay to win (p2w)?

Pashaka: no rebalance and no p2w

  • What are your long-term plans for this game?

  • Do you have any ideas for new content beyond what Xavi had planned? Are you scrapping any of Xavi's ideas?

  • Will Xavi be involved in the development at all from here on?

  • Will you offer transparency into in-development content, balancing, and patches?

  • Will you be monitoring the chat and forum for community feedback? Do you have other avenues to submit feedback planned?


  • That's all I have for now. Thanks for setting this up!

    So Spookyhouse has actually been working on this app with us for several weeks (not in the UniWar Two weeks(TM) sense). Xavi has been helping them get adjusted to the app and is currently working on the submarine units. Xavi will be leaving UniWar on the 20th. I would like to stay until Trineroks and I finish the new mission system feature. The submarines are planned. I do not know the plans that Spookyhouse has for the rest of the units. I didn't even know what Xavi's plans were on them. For me even after I am done working as a dev I will stay as a player and a moderator because UniWar is an amazing game.

    Are there any plans moving forward you can share with the playerbase?

    Will the current suggestion and bug reporting system (the spreadsheet) continue to be used?

    Will the beta update stream continue?

    Is Spooky House committed to Uniwar for the long term, 5+ years? This is the only mobile game where you can find players who registered 7 years ago and have been active players throughout that entire time period.

    Xavi committed to 18 new units. http://forum.uniwar.com/posts/list/2659.page
    We have 6 and 3 more are hopefully coming soon. Will Spooky House continue development and release of the other 9 upcoming units?

    Copied from the other thread:

    Q: Are there plans to come up with a better way of looking into potential imbalances in the game (collecting data from games), play-testing the changes in a beta environment, and then implementing changes as needed?

    Q: Piggybacking on others, what are the plans to communicate changes to the game? (new features, balance changes, units, etc.)

    Q: When are the submarine units coming in an iOS release?

    This account was created on July 18th, 2009 and it was actually my 2nd account. My first had a couple thousand games on it. I can't remember exactly when that was but it was probably either sometime in 2008 or early 2009.

    Will there be patch notes with each release? I would really like detailed patch notes with each release (especially in beta).

    Was this Q&A session organized with the people expected to answer?

    Sorry Duaneski I don't have good contact with the new devs yet. I'm hoping that these questions will be addressed

    Nothing to apologize for.
