About the game

SupremaShip is a singleplayer 2D top-down space shooter with a few roguelike elements about teamwork with AI controlled ships.

It is being developed by one person, myself.

It is currently in an alpha stage but stable enough to be playable.

Your objective is simple: Go right, destroy the enemy mothership (oh, and you'll find some enemy ships occasionally, destroy them as well XD)

Gameplay

1 - Move
2 - Aim
3 - Boost
4 - Shoot
5 - Kill
6 - Collect items
7 - Help
8 - Be helped
9 - Die
10 - Repeat step 1

Main features

- Teamwork system
    - Ships follow the leader
    - Ships ask for help and help other ships asking for help
    - Ships can attack an enemy that you select if you're the leader
    - Ships flee when outnumbered
- 7 different ship types in which 5 of them have unique abilities
- 3 weapon types
- 5 ship upgrades
- Dynamic soundtrack
- No HUD (there won't be any)
- Roguelike elements:
    - Permadeath... kinda (when you die, you respawn at your mothership and your ship type is selected randomly, you lose all your XP and some other things)
    - Items (health, nuke and shield)
    - Difficulty (not much at the moment actually... but one of my goals is to have a difficult game)
    - Fair gameplay (all ships behave the same way so no one has an advantage over anyone)
    - Procedural generation (asteroids, mines and the protector ships are procedurally placed on the map)
    - No invincibility frames

Features to be added

- Intro cutscene
- Menus (main, options, pause etc)
- Boss phase 2
- Credits
- Achievements

Known bugs

- There might be some, but nothing game breaking

Release date

- In the future

Discord dev server, for almost weekly builds, live updates on the game (except when I'm doing marketing) and easier feedback management: https://discord.gg/ubMdSVB
(If you join the server soon enough and help a lot, you'll be in the credits as an alpha, beta and release candidate tester in the 'Special Thanks' part and hopefully receive a 20% discount if the game becomes paid, however, if you leave the server, you'll lose everything I just mentioned)​

I like the aesthetics!

Nitpick: if you respawn, it's not really permadeath...

Recently added a ship type called 'Guard'.

They... guard the motherships' vicinities and have their own abilities:
- Only ship that spawns with a shield
- Their shield takes half the damage

Here's how they look:
