This is a very polished game — one of the few Game Maker games to be an IGF finalist. It’s basically a spaceship RTS game. I didn’t find the story particularly appealing, so I don’t give it full marks, but in most respects I don’t really see how this game could be improved. The strategy can get very deep.

The vector-style (it’s not actually vector, but vector-style bitmaps) are particularly attractive to me. A lot of the time vector art isn’t clean enough, it can get messy and hard to see (such as in my own attempt), but this game does it very cleanly.
