I like the drones (or fighters/bombers) in your last gif. I am a sucker for mothership esque fighting

I like the drones

Thanks!

You can create/deploy up to 10 drones,  research different behaviors: attack enemy, pickup resources, or repair the ship.  Their design is based on alien tech (that you need to discover first).  They have low health, but can pack a wallop in numbers!

You're saying all the words I like haha

Do you aim manually or do you have a battle wagon style fighting like in SPAZ 2 (where you just get close and then the guns start shooting automatically)?

haven't played SPAZ 2.. I have played SPAZ 1 a little, but don't remember it much!

You don't aim independent of your angle like a tank, no.  It's just like Asteroids, aim the ship and press trigger to shoot. You have 1 endless ammo gun (very low damage) all the other weapons have ammo which you need to pickup to replenish.  Most guns have a screen length of range or so, but one is very short range. The cannon is extremely long rang and you can track the shot on the mini map!

I have great composer http://www.adamkoopmans.com and he's an accomplished guitarist, so very much looking forward to it. And the score it will be for sale when the game comes out.

and I myself am doing all the sound design.
