Dark Stars - an "anti-shmup" for Windows

Hi everyone!

I just released my first major game project, Dark Stars, built on Monogame. It’s an experimental shoot-em-up without shooting. Combat is centered on abducting the souls of enemy ships’ crews, and spending them on offensive and defensive abilities, such as bullet-swallowing traps and homing bombs. The action is more tactical than twitch, and success depends as much on proactive resource management as pure dodging skills.

Here’s the latest gameplay trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zNzwP5WhBpc



The game is available for as a “name your price” download over at axethetail.itch.io/dark-stars. Thanks for checking it out! If you’re feeling generous, head over to my Greenlight page and vote: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=478228650&result=1

I really like the idea, very clever! The game looks really good too! :smiley:
