To all SSC Station occupants

Thank you for the donations over the past year (2024), it is much appreciated. I am still trying to figure out how to migrate the forums to another community software (probably phpbb) but in the meantime I have updated the forum software to the latest version. SSC has been around a while so their is some very long time members here still using the site, thanks for making SSC home and sorry I haven't been as vocal as I should be in the forums I will try to improve my posting frequency.

Thank you again to all of the members that do take the time to donate a little, it helps keep this station functioning on the outer reaches of space.

Starfall Tactics: playtest match

Hi all,

Starfall Tactics team made playtest match video in which we show one of our game modes. It is one of quick match modes that called "Mothership mode".

 

In this game mode, players start off with a limited amount of resources and a Mothership that can be used to spawn spaceships. The destruction of your Mothership is one of the loss conditions in Starfall Tactics.

 

At the start of each match, players choose what ships from their pre-built space fleet will appear on the map, similar to selecting what cards from your deck will go into play in a game like Hearthstone.

 

Right from the beginning and all the way until the end of a match, each player accumulates a special resource. A mothership grants you a slow and steady income of this resource by default, but controlling points (power nodes) on the map provides a significant boost that will allow you to accumulate it much faster. During a match, this resource allows players to spawn/warp more powerful/specialized spaceships from your fleet.

 

As a player, you have to make a choice - do I spend the remaining resources and bring out a few smaller ships or should I wait a bit more and spawn a big, powerful vessel? What is more important right now?
