This game is part of the Micro Entertainment Pack, a collection of tiny desktop games I developed for fun.

A classic distillation of the real time strategy genre - All players start controlling one major planet in a star system. Larger planets produce ships faster than smaller planets. Send ships to occupy planets and moons, and conquer the entire system.

The human player is the white colour. Use the mouse to select planets you own. and click an opponent or unoccupied planet to send ships there. You can select your planets by clicking them or by dragging a box on the screen. You can also press A to select all of your planets. By default, 50% of the ships garrisoned in each selected planet will be sent to the target.  You can adjust this deployment percentage with the Forces menu or by pressing the keys 1-4.

Features:

  • A pure distillation of real time strategy similar to Galcon, but played over a star system with orbiting planets and moons like Qonk.
  • One to four AI opponents whose priorities are randomised, so different opponents will play differently each time.
  • Fog of war mode where ships garrisoned in enemy planets are not visible.
  • Tiny, unobtrusive graphics and Micro Mode - The game only occupies a fraction of your screen real estate, and can even be displayed in half size on high DPI displays, making it perfect for discreetly playing at work or while watching something on your computer.

Currently I prioritise mac binaries, as that's the only platform I play these games on, but am also building for other platforms. They are written in Rust and have a dependency on C libraries SDL2 and SDL_gfx.
