General Information
Official announcement
SPANIARD BLEND WILL DEVELOP A PLANET IN ENTROPIA UNIVERSE
- Spaniard Blend is currently the only Spanish company that has become Planet Partner of MindArk, the owner of Entropia Universe.
Madrid, april, the 14th of 2011.- Pyxel Arts has announced today an agreement with MindArk PE AB, the Swedish company owner and developer of Entropia Universe, to develop a planet through its games developer studio, Spaniard Blend. With this agreement, Pyxel Arts becomes the only Spanish company that currently has managed to become a Planet Partner, the name that MindArk gives to the companies that develop planets for Entropia Universe.
Entropia Universe was launched in January 2003 and has grown to more than 1 000,000 registered accounts from over 200 countries. It is the only virtual universe with a true Real Cash Economy (RCE). The currency, Project Entropia Dollars (PED), has a fixed exchange rate of 10:1 with the U.S. Dollar. The business model is unique as it is based on micropayments, meaning that the client software is free to download from the Internet, and there are no monthly subscription fees, thus Entropia Universe provides a way for new players to immediately start exploring without having to deposit money. Virtual funds acquired in Entropia Universe can easily be exchanged and then withdrawn into real-world funds. The business model has been very successful; The 2010 turnover of Entropia Universe topped $422,000,000.
MindArk provides the Planet Partners with the technology to develop the planets in the virtual world and controls and maintains the platform. Spaniard Blend is going to develop with this technology a planet set in a Sci Fi environment. The players can access to all the planets of the Entropia Universe with a single account and this allows them to go from one world to another. This provides the future planet of Spaniard Blend, a potential users base over than one million.
"We are very proud of the agreement with MindArk and, of course, of having manage becoming Planet Partners. Entropia Universe is a solid platform and we absolutely trust their current and futures possibilities; for us, developing a planet is a challenge and an opportunity and we are going to give the best of us in this project to surprise the players", comments Rafael Espinosa de los Monteros, CEO of Pyxel Arts.

Theryon Wars Vehicles
Deep Space Interceptor
Further info in the introduction thread Theryon Wars: Eye Candy nr.1
Anti-Mothership Bomber
Further info in the introduction thread Theryon Wars: Eye Candy nr.2 "Bigger, slower and packing more punch than the ship you've already seen, you could conceive this 'not-so little beast' as an anti-mothership bomber. The twin cannons near her nose are shorter than those of the Interceptor, intended for shorter-range and slightly faster RoF (Rate of Fire). Atop of this ship there's an special hardpoint, for yet-to-be-seen attached equipment. In this configuration, it's unused."
Mech
Further info in the introduction thread Theryon Wars: Eye Candy nr.4
"The torso of this mechanic beast houses its pilot and acts as an armoured cockpit.
Granted, it won't be the most comfortable...
Vehicle? Mecha? Power Armor? Well, it's the sum of all three
At this stage, the left arm weapon comes with its own attachment module; this means you can switch guns and also these guns are not mounted, but attached." - Ordaz, Spaniard Blend COO
Theryon Wars Armor
Further info in the introduction thread Theryon Wars: Eye Candy nr.3
"The Space & Station specialty means these plates, colors and pattern identify off-world based NPCs which, for instance, won't be available as reinforcements for regular surface missions. This kind of pattern (for crafting and customizing) can be obtained as a reward by players who have completed a given Mission Arc lacking direct planetary interaction. Different armor parts (L) can also be acquired as mission rewards at 'Step Missions' (Mission 3/9, Mission 6/9, Mission 9/9) of space-oriented Mission Arcs, as well as Hidden Missions." - Ordaz, Spaniard Blend COO
