2006.9.21 - Starchon i25 Released!
Iteration 25 of Starchon is available for download
Summary:
Starchon is a cross between a shooter and a real-time stategy. You can't directly decide where to place your units or which sectors to attack. However, you have a lot of indirect influence over the outcome of the game. The game is real-time, so if you take to long in a sector, you will probably be overrun by the enemy in the adjacent sectors.
Please give the game a try, and offer your input, because the game play is still being shaped!
Known Issues:
- Some memory issues still exist.
- High Score functionality is offline at this time.
