The features in 0.5a are really looking and sounding good. I hope we get to play with it in the next month or so; the post-battle screens excited me more than I thought they would.

A preview review from DIYGamer for the next build (the one that introduces the campaign layer/sandbox) is up. Does this mean we could get our hands on it soon? Hoping for this weekend.

TL;DR version: plays like a 2D Mount & Blade in space, subsystem damage is in and works great, looks gorgeous.

Mm, sexy. The blog posts have been pretty tasty, too, though somewhat rare. Still, looks nice~

Between this and SPAZ, the last year or so has been pretty good for the always-delicious top-down 2D space-based genre.

I bought it cause I heard of the awesome mechwarrior style ship builder in the rts text.

There is no awesome mechwarrior style ship builder.

The next version is probably going to be out the 14th or 15th. That one will have ship customization, the campaign layer (limited to one solar system at first), and lots of shooty fun.

Hang on until Tuesday or so, then you should have your Mechwarrior-esque awesomeness.
