  13. About This Game Have you ever wanted to be admiral of a huge, sprawling space
  14. battle-fleet of your own design? Ever wanted to design a fleet of
  15. battle-cruisers so powerful they can rip all who oppose them into space-dust?
  16. Ever wanted to build a battleship with purple rotating radars and 64 engines?
  17. Well we have good news for you...
  18. Gratuitous Space Battles is back! and it's approximately 50,000 times more
  19. gratuitous than before. A completely new ground-up rebuilding of the custom
  20. 'Gratuitous Engine' gives the game a completely new look, with beam-lasers
  21. 10x as 'beamy' as explosions 10x more gratuitous.
  24. You now have complete control over the appearance of your ships, and can
  25. build them from a base hull and a bunch of adjustable visual components so
  26. you have control of both the composition AND the looks of your deadly
  27. starships. GSB2 retains the core gameplay of the original. This is NOT a
  28. standard RTS game, but a management/simulation game about building space
  29. fleets and giving them orders. You aren't the dumb schmuck who actually flies
  30. into battle and gets lazered. Leave that to those patriotic and keen young
  31. dudes from the outer-colonies. Nope, your job is as supreme commander in
  32. chief. Sit back at fleet HQ and watch the fireworks as you reduce the enemy
  33. to space-dust.
  36. Using it's amazingly asynchronous multiplayer online 'challenge' system, GSB2
  37. lets you put together a whole fleet and upload it, orders, formations and
  38. custom ship designs in one, up to a server where fellow GSB2 players can
  39. download it and pit their own fleets against it in glorious combat.
  42. Some of the new features in GSB2:
  45. * Totally re-coded graphics engine for uber-explodiness
  46. * Every ship in the game is built from a wide range of components that mean
  47. no challenge will have identical looking enemies. Huge scope for ship design.
  48. * Super-clever lighting system and mega-parallax system makes for a more 3D,
  49. cinematic-looking experience, and more gratuitous effects.
  50. * Built-in multi-monitor support. Runs fine (and looks lovely) at 5120 res
  51. and beyond.
  52. * New classes of ship, introducing the Dreadnought, the destroyer and the
  53. gunship...
  54. * Carrier modules now bring fighters into battle, and refuel them
  55. mid-battle. Knock out a carrier to upset those pesky fighter pilots.
  56. * Steam achievements & trading cards at last!
  57. * Formations now survive individual members being lost.
  58. * New support beams allow ships to act as tugs, or mobile target-boost
  59. assistance vessels.
  60. * Support for new weapons combinations such as radioactive plasma torpedoes.
  61. * Built in 30 FPS mode for smooth video-capture for all you lets-play fans.
  62. * unashamedly gratuitous GUI.
