r/subspace

A few weeks ago, I had the urge to build a SubSpace remake. Feeling a bit nostalgic.

You can play right now at https://play.vectorwake.net . I'm just doing this for fun, so its' totally free.

I know there are many out there. I wanted to take a shot at something SubSpace-inspired, but not SubSpace. The physics are very similar and the play balance is as well. Graphics, sound, etc are new. I plan to add different charges and whatnot (it has a burst and repel right now).

Features:

• Gunners (turrets)
• Online multiplayer only
• Desktop and mobile browsers
• Keyboard and touch controls
• Source available on Github at https://github.com/criccomini/vectorwake under the PolyForm Noncommercial license
• ELO-based ratings at https://vectorwake.net/pilots

Alpha zone is live now. AI pilots keep battles alive between human arrivals, so there is always something to shoot at. The game runs in desktop and mobile browsers with keyboard or touch controls. Accounts are optional; ratings are available for players who want them.

Hope to see you there. :)

SubSpace and Continuum proved top-down space combat could feel physical, and I have chased that feeling ever since. Strike Wings is my attempt to put it inside a bigger war: capitals, bombers, carrier decks, AI that actually pressures you. The Steam page reached 200 wishlists this week and the new trailer this clip comes from is the celebration. If this reads as off topic for the sub I will take it down. Would love thoughts from people with real Continuum hours. Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/4718360/?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=subspace&utm_campaign=prelaunch
