It seems that I forgot to upload the latest version of the WebGL build :(
I'm not sure if the Windows version is the latest. If I remember correctly, the bugs I fixed made the game easier, so it shouldn't be too hard now :D

Beautiful graphics. The hud is gorgeous. I disliked ships spawning in the middle of the screen out of nowhere. Overall, it definitely hit my retro nerves. :)

Nice graphics, too bad there aren't any sfx!

I liked that the ships had their own strategies on how to avoid being shot. And how the humans were thrown out of the Civilian ship. When I finally downed a supply ship I forgot what the key for boarding was and had to look it up 😂.
