So there's quite a bit of work going on with the background images. I would like you to share your opinions about the following two background images. Thanks a lot. Background I:

I really like the 2nd one, I feel that the asteroids could probably use a bit of touching up, compared to the new background they sort of look like paper mâché balls crumpled up.

The first one looks okay, the second one looks A lot better IMO. I do have a question, arent the backround textures going to be moving? like i saw on facebook

I do have a question, arent the backround textures going to be moving? like i saw on facebook The effect is on top of the entire game and is not related to the background itself, it just affects it. So yeah, they will all have that moving bloom effect once they are in the game.

But i did see the video on Facebook, and that looks like the background from before, but this is a new looking background that looks radically different. Sorry but i dont understand (so far)

Thank you all for the feedback. It'll help a lot with selecting the most suitable backgrounds for sure. It's really difficult to fine tune these background images without interfering with the gameplay. Once the next beta is online, you can experience them much better than by simply looking at a screenshot. Ideally they should look good, but not get into the way of the game, i.e. you shouldn't have to search for units on the screen, because the background "consumes" them in its own details. The effect is on top of the entire game and is not related to the background itself, it just affects it. So yeah, they will all have that myoving bloom effect once they are in the game. Those last 3 look Gorgeous! But i did see the video on Facebook, and that looks like the background from before, but this is a new looking background that looks radically different. Sorry but i dont understand (so far) Well these are new backgrounds, completely new ones. The effect from the video will work with all and any new background. It's done programmatically and has nothing to do with the images themselves. When you look closely at the video, you will notice that not only the background is "moving", but also the lighting on the space ship is changing.
