Wayward Terran Frontier
« on: January 10, 2014, 01:06:07 PM »

Hey guys I found a new space game like Starsector or Spaz but in this one you can design the inside of your ship as well as add other types of crafts to the game. I used a few of the ships from Starsector to see how a light mod might work and i'm telling you it works great. You can also tear ships in half and fly the half that still works, the lay out reminds me of how building ships in Stardrive works but feels more like Starsector as far as combat. Its in open alpha 3 atm of writing this and I'm telling you its a blast! So I'm going to leave the link here for you top down space ship enthusiasts! Also one more thing to add the dev is planing on making it a multi-player game with servers you can host.
Here's the link: http://www.wtfrontier.com/ ;)

I playd it a little yesterday evening and must say that it seems to be very complicated, but also extremly fun :) I will have to spent more time on this one to learn play properly. For everybody who feels that way - on youtube there are nice tutorials done by dev.

I think the sprites in that game are ugly, and we should help them with our awesome mod ships.

Well, stock ships first, cuz I found some PNGs on the wiki which can be used pretty much right away.

I've played quite a bit of this game, and highly recommend it. Goduranus, you can probably find the PNGs for just about any starsector ship right in the core files.

Is there a tutorial on how to add ships in this game?  Because I have no clue how.

That's sizable amount he's requesting. [sarcasm]Not that living in a place with heat, water and accessible food is important or anything...[/sarcasm]

I might donate if he adds in the option to have randomly generated sprites for the hull you lay out. That would be mucho cool.
