This is really a great deal for 5 bucks. You can tell the devs are big fans of StarCraft and they wear their inspiration on their sleeve. It's a Sci-Fi RTS, with a few unique twists when it comes to the building and resource management. Some buildings produce heat, so the more you put together, the less efficient they become. The other cool thing is with the secondary resource (think gas in SC or fuel in CoH). The more units you have, the more coin that's used by them. So you don't fully get supply blocked, but eventually your coins will keep going down and you can't produce more units. The actual army and units themselves are solid, and control is decent as well. I would've loved to have seen more armies, but for a small indie RTS priced extremely well, I'm really happy with the game. I can highly recommend this for RTS fans, especially if you're a StarCraft fan.

Fun little bite-sized RTS experience reminiscent of Brood War. Can be a little janky but not to the point of distracting from the campaign. Can't wait to see what else Borington creates!
