Our UI guy is cooking!🔥👀

After two weeks of prototyping we finally nailed down the boot up sequence and design for our main UI!

Totally not evangelion/gundam inspired~ 😇

🔧 Strategem Test Log #02: Flak Barrage
Called in the Avalon Support for a little “crowd control.”

🎯 Deployed forward-facing flak cannons
💥 Spews a storm of shrapnel downrange

More Dakka is always the solution~

🔧 Weapon Test Log #01: EMP Rounds
Swapped out standard warheads for EMP variants on the autocannons.

⚡ Halved the damage
🧠 But now it fries circuitries and stuns ships

Might be a little OP...
Okay maybe a lot OP. 🤣

There's something about a ship launching from a carrier that's really hype. 🤣

Decided to change the lock on from circular to cone base and it seems to work a whole lot better. 🥳

Putting corvette latches on standard frigates to turn them into pseudo-carriers.

Could I have just made the corvettes warp in with the frigates? Yeah, but it looks cooler this way. 🤣

Mad respect to all the UX/UI designers out there — this took way longer than expected (realities of wearing multiple hats), and it's still not done. 😅

But hey... weapon customization is coming along! 🔧🚀

After countless hours of being [REDACTED] in Starsector, I finally took inspiration of implementing a debris system for our PhaigeX spin-off game 😆

It's not too fancy, but it gets the job done.
Progress is progress, right? 😂
