 This one's looks "hot" I'd say. Also, capital-ship only as it seems. Brought by former Diablo/Torchlight devs.

 Now with Rebel Galaxy, you’re in control of an enormous destroyer, bristling with weaponry, firing massive broadside volleys, burning holes in cruisers, and bringing down fighters by the score. Rebel Galaxy takes place in a massive, randomly generated universe filled with nebulae, junkyards, asteroid belts, and ice fields.No two star systems will ever look the same. Explore. Discover new trade routes. Scavenge from the hulks of derelicts. Mine. Hunt. Protect the less fortunate, or prey on the unwitting. On Steam and PS4. Sounds like it is a single player game (which is good by me) and would be nice to know if they are building some sort of campaign or story mode to the game or if it is open-ended?

I think it'll be open world with story. From what it looks you can buy bigger ship and customize it too.

small article about the game from Gamesinformer http://www.gameinformer.com/b/news/archive/2014/12/07/explore-the-stars-in-double-damage-games-39-rebel-galaxy.aspx[/url] Described as "space combat, trading, exploration, adventure, slightly RPG," by Double Damage Games co-founder and developer Travis Baldree, Rebel Galaxy is one of the games that caught my eye the most at Sony's PlayStation Experience in Las Vegas. Baldree continued his comparison, saying, "if you took Sid Meier's Pirates, Star Control II, and the naval combat of Assassin's Creed: Black Flag, and you sew it together with a little bit of Wing Commander: Privateer – that's sort of what this is." I think the mention of Black Flags naval combat may explains why the games is played on a plane instead of in full 3D.

I just finished assassin creed black flag in this days so i said to me "i'd like to fight this way also with a starship"....eh eh....it seems my prayers have been listened! I think i'll buy it on steam because i don't want to wait for my ps4, probably it's a funny game but a space game played on a plane it's a limit.When i think "space" i mean no exploration limits. Anyway i had some fun playing space section of Ratchet and clanck a crack in time, the gameplay was on a plane do you remember?

Some gameplay footage from the game with Dev comments.  Why can't you buy the Steam key on GamerGate, at least it's available on GOG.

I'm quite enjoying it. Combat kind of turned me off at first, but it's growing on me. I know it's not completely rational, but there's something that irks me about being confined to a plane in any game set in space, it seems like an anathema. I thought it was done very well in Star Trek Online where tactically it was still the naval/Starfleet-Command type of combat on a plane, but you could still move your ship transverse to the plane (I guess to make people like me feel better about it). I'm hoping there's a much larger variety of ships and equipment than I've so far seen in the starting system, but assuming there is, I'll be quite happy.

Im not entirely sure, but I noticed that there are different ships for different factions. I landed at some sort of piratey base, and they had piratical ships. I assume other factions have ships as well. Didn't think to look at equipment. I'm loving the game so far, its game design done right. Where SPG2 was boring, grindy, and flat out souless, this game has immersion and soul in spades. The 2d combat wasn't even noticeable for me because you have so many other things to deal with in combat. Flying a capital ship with multiple turrets, subsystems, and broadside firing main cannons that require excellent tactical positioning, is downright FUN. 3D be damned, I'm having more fun in Rebel Galaxy then Elite Dangerous and SPG2 combined. It also helps that since launch its been patched FOUR times. In what 3 days? The developer is clearly listening to player feedback, and I cannot WAIT to see where this game goes. Good stuff, and highly reccomended.

Being thinking about getting it through GOG but their downloader a bit flaky for downloading anything in the GB size. Anyone know if the GOG one has been updated yet?.
