Hi, my name is Jorge and I would like to show you my first PC project: Nomad Fleet.
What is Nomad Fleet?Is a real-time strategy game set in space with procedural levels. You control a fleet of spaceships and jump from sector to sector while harvesting resources, fighting hostile aliens, trading and researching while being chased by a mysterious alien species that has mankind nearing it's extinction.
Comparisons are inevitable so let's say I have been heavily inspired by Homeworld and FTL.
A bit of the StoryTwo hundred years have passed since Earth's destruction.
The few remnants of Mankind survive crowded in their spaceships.
A nomad race, a cursed race.
Dreaming of a promised land and peace, we roam the stars and scavenge for resources while the rest of the galaxy looks the other way.
We have tried before but the Great Enemy keeps chasing us every time we try to colonize a planet or gather in great numbers.
They are the gardeners and we are the weed.
But nothing of that matters anymore because the Great Enemy has returned and we are few, we are spread and we are weak. Is just a matter of time before they can finish the job.
But in our desperation, a glimpse of hope: an Ancient Hyperspace Gate has been found and it appears to be powerful enough to take a whole fleet to another galaxy, far enough to finally outrun our pursuers.
We just need to cross the whole galaxy... and you'll take us there, Commander.
Enough talk! What can you show us?Here's some gifs and captures showing my current progress:
Human fighters vs Alien Dreadnaught

Galaxy Map
Other info?- The game is being made with Unity.
- Is my first PC project but not my first game. I have two published Android games (enough to make me realize that I don't really enjoy making mobile games).
Thanks for your time!
