Imperium Galactica II: Alliances available on GOG. Is this a new development?
Uhmm, see above your post several posts.
EEEEEE
You got me there.
Serves me right posting on the fly.
Brian would you recommend one over the other?
They’re both worth owning because they’re both fairly different. While both have space and planetary management, IG1 has you starting off as an officer with a small fleet, growing into more responsibilities, while IG2 is more a traditional 4X. Both are awesome.
No idea, but it looks nice
That looks like Wings of Saint Nazaire, but since the dev is working with the Rebel galaxy guys now, I guess it’s their next project?
Be aware that the Imperium Galactica II Alliances is the tablet/phone version of IE2, and thus lacks a few things like all the voiceovers.
Hey as long as it works without crashing at the research or ship design screen every damned time - - which is what happened at my recent attempt to play my disk version - - there’ll be no complaints from me.
Not sure. I’m a joystick and keyboard man. And they worked great with joystick and keyboard back in the day.
The line I always remember from Tachyon The Fringe is Bruce Campbell saying “Viva New Vegas baby”.
That looks fantastic. I love the way the ship turns and you see the sunlight highlighting different parts of the frost on the glass of the cockpit.
Dunno what it is but I know I want it.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but we haven’t seen this kind of fast, smooth, Wing Commander-style cockpit action since the release of Tachyon: The Fringe, right? Darkstar One kind of tried to do so, but never felt quite right. Of course, this being just a gif, I suppose maybe this one will end up feeling like Darkstar One, but I don’t think so. There’s several details in that gif that make it feel just right, very reminiscent of Wing Commander games more so than the Star Wars/Tie Fighter games for example.
A couple games have tried to capture that kind of old school action. In my opinion the one that’s come closest is this one:
But yeah, those games today are few and far between.
Hey friends, hope y’all don’t mind a bit of pimping, but I’m chiming in to invite y’all to this Sunday’s first Monthly MMO Meetup featuring Jumpgate, which is free to play! I’d love it if you could join us. :) Thanks!
I’d argue House of the Dying Sun is pretty much that fast, smooth, old-school Wing Commander type of action space shooter/arcade sim.
Oh right, yeah, forgot about that one.
Yeah, and I totally understand why. ;)
