Absolute Territory

Absolute Territory is a space combat game with a 21-mission single-player campaign and two wave-based modes with leaderboards. You dogfight large warships and enemy starfighters, manage your ship’s flight and power systems, and navigate hazardous mine and asteroid fields.

Flight and combat

The game uses simulated Newtonian physics: thrust changes your velocity and rotation. With the Flight Assist Computer enabled, minor thrust corrections keep you moving in the direction you face, making flight feel more like piloting a traditional aircraft. Turning has no stall or drag restrictions, regardless of your speed.

Slide lets you maintain your current velocity while turning to face another direction. This can help you make strafing runs against large warships or keep fast-moving targets in your sights. You can disable flight assist to take manual control of thrust; without its automated corrections, speed restrictions no longer apply, so you can theoretically accelerate forever. A reverse-thrust toggle provides six degrees of freedom.

You distribute power among engines, shields and guns to gain an advantage or escape dangerous situations. You can also target and destroy warship turrets before making an attack on the ship itself.

Ships and missions

Choose from ships ranging from fast-moving to heavy-hitting, then equip them with weapons suited to your mission objectives. The game includes a built-in level editor and Steam Workshop support for missions.
