http://store.steampowered.com/app/369530/
Its been a long road - since 2009 when I first experimented with rendering engines, struggling to put up a cube on screen.
To make the game the best that it can be - I'll need feedback on the good on the bad and ugly. I'll need criticism, ideas, and just general thoughts that I'll think about in order to improve. I'll need your support and encouragement, I'm not worried, so far I've gotten it, otherwise I wouldn't have made it this far.
If you enjoyed Void Destroyer - I'm nearly 99.999999% sure you'll love Void Destroyer 2. If you wished that Void Destroyer was a sandbox game... well I'm 99.999999999999% sure you'll love Void Destroyer 2.
So hop on over, check it out and consider supporting the project in Early Access.
thanks!

Hey guys!
Another Void Destroyer 2 update.
http://store.steampowered.com/app/369530/
The goal is to release on Early Access the week of the 26th. Most likely on Thursday the 29th.
EDIT: Now planning on releasing tomorrow the 22nd!
I'm going to spend the next week on marketing. Sending out Steam codes to YouTubers and gaming websites, in hopes of getting some pre-launch exposure and hopefully some launch exposure.
A game's launch (even Early Access) is a nerve wracking moment where all the hard work and investment might pay off, or you might find out that you've been delusional. The gaming market is constantly changing, there's a mass of great and horrible games out there for you (and me) to chose from, hopefully at the very least players will be aware of the game to make a choice, versus not even knowing about it.
To go along with the launch here's a new trailer:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lckN9EJJlr8
YouTube linkAs far as what's been going on behind the scenes, here's another dev update vid:
https://youtu.be/FUSGpzvIoG4
YouTube link
To summarize - preparation for Early Access, including tons of polish, bug fixes, issues, and secondary weapons.
I've also prepared a few vids to introduce new and potential players to the project (you guys are most likely already aware of these elements of Void Destroyer 1 and 2):
Early Access "What is Void Destroyer 2 - Explainer"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lmob3CTW6Xs
YouTube linkEarly Access "Flight Controls Basics"

Thanks for all of your support - I hope that you guys will be enjoying the game soon.

As you can see there's a new art style - I hope you like it - there's a lot of thought behind the scenes put in for the art style, as far as uniqness and viability for an indie project.
I hope you follow and wish list the project - and let a friend (or two!) know about it.
A little bit about Void Destroyer 2:
It is a space sandbox game - and like Void Destroyer it will also combine space combat and RTS elements - up to the player to decide/chose when to use what. But this time in a non-linear environment.
Many of you asked for a sandbox type game set in the Void Destroyer "world" - so I'm happy to oblige. And as an added bonus the two games don't share the exact same genre so Void Destroyer will remain a awesome space combat and RTS mission based game.
Without your support - Void Destroyer 2 wouldn't be possible - the proceeds from Void Destroyer go towards its funding.
Thanks for supporting the project!

Hey guys!
I'm very excited to be featured on the Steam Summer Sale - unlocked via the Monster Mini Game. There's so many amazing games on sale, its an honor being included.
EDIT: the feature discount is over - but the regular Summer Sale Discount is still pretty nice ;)
Thanks for considering purchasing Void Destroyer. I hope that the Summer Sale brings a lot of new fans to the game.
Feel free to ask questions, post feedback, you can friend me on Steam, post messages on the forums, or just email me (paul @ void destroyer . com ).
Here's some info to hopefully maximize your enjoyment of the game.
What is Void Destroyer:
Void Destroyer is a mix of RTS (like Homeworld) and space sim (like X series, Freelancer, Tie Fighter, Wing Commander) games. It features both fleet command and direct flight (including capital ships). It is a story based single player game. There is an instant action mode with pre-built scenarios, and a battle editor for you to setup your own crazy fights. There is also a free "Mini Sandbox DLC."
Void Destroyer has crazy big battles, that you can control from a fleet view, or fight in a fighter. There's boss fights, unique challenges and huge alien death cruisers.
Void Destroyer is an indie game - that cost $40k USD (not including my time spent) most of which was raised via Kickstarter. It took 5 years to make (with me working mostly nights and weekends on it).
There aren't many games that mix these two genres - mixing genres is often too big of a risk for most AAA and even smaller studios. Luckily indie games thrive on risk, that's our currency.

Also you can friend me and message me - or email me - paul @ void destroyer . com
Difficulty/Getting Started Issues:
Depending on your experience with space sims and RTS games - the game can can be a bit more challenging at the beginning than most other games - it is a mix of two genres and you are tossed into the commander role very fast. Enemy forces come at you with the intention of winning.
The RTS and space sim genres don't have nearly as many games released each year - so players tend to be less experienced with them - thus there might be a steeper learning curve - but once you get past it - you can become a immortal space warlord.
So if you ask me, its worth it.
Tutorials:
Very much recommended.
Difficulty options:
The game features difficulty options, these are best used before most of your fleet is destroyed.
Command ship upgrades:
There are some very powerful abilities that can turn the tide of battle. That destroyer giving you problems? Capture it with the command ability, now you've taken out an enemy and gained a ship.
Hints and tips:
The game's built in guide has a hints and tips section.

Once again, thanks for your interest in Void Destroyer, I hope you have a great Summer Sale.

Hey guys!
The mini sandbox DLC is now released and available to all owners of Void Destroyer for free.
To add the DLC to your game - in the Steam client, click on Library, then click on Games, then click on Void Destroyer. Then check the "Installed" check box next to the Mini Sandbox DLC and the DLC files should download and install.
I whipped up a quick video to give an overview and details:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ZIzwzEJemQ
What is it?
A few months after Void Destroyer's launch - I started experimenting on what is planned to become Void Destroyer 2. It quickly became apparent that given a bit of effort and care (not to mention generous testing from players) I could release the current work on Void Destroyer 2 into a playable DLC for you guys - and that is what the mini sandbox is. A prototype and proof of concept for Void Destroyer 2.
So while it lacks a many (many!) of the planned features of Void Destroyer 2 - it lets you have fun in a sandbox environment. You start off with a basic ship, and are left on your own from there. You can travel the game world, explore the void, do missions, battle pirates (or become one), bounty hunt targets, buy a better ship and even build up a fleet.
Because the DLC re-uses all of Void Destroyer's assets, because the interfaces for the sandbox elements are very minimal and unoptimized, and because all the work (code wise) goes on to Void Destroyer 2, and because "Hey, why not?" - I decided to release it for free.
In addition to giving you guys a unique and fun game mode - I hope that it gives us something to discuss for Void Destroyer 2.
If you want to toss some ideas for Void Destroyer 2:

Also I'd be nice if you let me know which code you grabbed so I can remove it from the list. Plus if I know that the codes ran out - I could post some more if more testing would be good.
