    I hope this is the "right" place to be posting this. I'm still new here and learning the forums.

    This isn't related to Trek, but I just stumbled across this project, and it piqued my interest. I would like to see what all of you make of it.

    Basically, it's a sci-fi game in which the communities feedback is directly responsible for the development of the game. Check it out: http://www.endlesspace.com/

    I've been playing this for a couple of weeks now and I'm pretty impressed. One thing I would like is if ship designing were more like in Galactic Civilizations, but it's still pretty great.

    Bought it on steam last week and already my favourite game, still needs balanced as Beam weapons beat everything the AI throws at you. Just fill up a ton of destroyers with pure Beams and you can destroy Dreadnoughts.

    If you really care about the game you should sign up on their site. You get 100 points just for signing up, and you can vote on various things they're looking to add to the game! The more points you have, the more your vote counts, so people who actually buy the game get the most say in what goes into it.

    I would get it, its pretty good. They need a LOT of work balancing it though, a lot of victories are way too easy to get, and the races are horribly unbalanced (play the techy Sophons and then the warmongering Cravers. Its like night and day.). That being said, for a game thats still in an alpha-ish state, its rather well finished and polished.

    So much moreso than SotS II... Oh SotS II...
