DangerSpace

DangerSpace combines spaceflight with real-time strategy. Set in the near future during the exploration of the Solar System, it follows a war between two corporations fighting to possess its minerals. You play as a recruit pilot for one of them, using extracted resources to build defenses and advanced ships while taking part in the conflict.

Missions and combat

You personally fly one ship from a third-person view while commanding a squad of fighters, an offensive frigate, turrets and other equipment. Give orders to your ships and fight with guns and missiles. Decisions in each mission affect events in the next, and the nonlinear story has multiple endings.

Fleet and strategy

Gather resources, develop your base and build a fleet. Ships come in different classes with distinct characteristics, and you can upgrade them by installing different weapons and systems. You can link ships to gain an advantage, and must use their strengths and weaknesses to plan tactics against superior forces. Radars matter: ships have blind spots and cannot detect enemies behind asteroids, so stealth can be useful. Fuel, ammunition and energy are limited, so you need to monitor each ship's condition.

Flight and hazards

The physics-driven flight system accounts for a ship's mass and inertia, as well as the thrust of its propulsion and maneuvering engines. Its controls draw on both arcade space games and simulators based on real physics. Energy shields absorb damage and help prevent uncontrolled flight, while solar radiation and meteorites can damage your ship.
