Age of Ascent

A massively multiplayer space shooter that you can play right from your browser with no download required (it uses Microsoft’s Azure servers). The highest number of concurrent players so far is almost 1000, with a much higher potential ceiling.

Currently, every other Saturday you can play the PvP dogfighting aspect, check the website for the countdown timer to see when it opens.

It’s a bit difficult to record nice GIFs for games with realistic-ish graphics (that play nice with Tumblr), so take a peek at the trailer if you like.

The Heavens

by Obsolete Robot.

A space exploration roguelike. Explore the procedurally generated galaxy gathering resources and fighting alien species. How long can you survive?

Venturi by Negative Zero Inc.

A sci-fi RPG where you have to travel back in time to prevent the destruction of humanity. Venture forth with your party to explore the galaxy, complete various quests, and upgrade your equipment. There’s also an arena style multiplayer mode planned.

Nomad Fleet by Jorge Pacheco – a procedurally generated RTS. Jump from sector to sector harvesting resources, fighting enemies, and trading. Inspired by Homeworld and FTL, which sounds like a good combo. =) If you’re in to Homeworld inspired games, also check out Shallow Space.

Cogmind by Grid Sage Games – a sci-fi roguelike with beautiful ASCII art, something I didn’t think was possible. Play as a robot that attaches the body parts… err.. components of other salvaged machines to itself. Build yourself into an assassin bot, tank bot, hedonism bot (OK, maybe not the last one); explore and destroy your enemies.

Modulus : Phase One by Alexander Womack – a space RTS featuring custom fleets and dynamic destruction. Lots of bullets and explosions.

Dr. Spacezoo by Smash/Riot – a space time attack shmup where you rescue SPACE ANIMALS from a SPACE ZOO. Also, cats!

Here’s last week’s screenshot caturday post.

Shallow Space by mawhrin skel – a real time 3D RTS set in space, in the same vein as something like Homeworld. Which…I still haven’t played. Sshhhh.

Solar Protector – a space mercenary game, fly around, complete contracts, get money, save the sun. Neat art style like paper drawn, where space is white and stars are black.

No contact info! >:(

Wayward Terran Frontier : Zero Falls by George Hultgren – A space captain RPG. Explore the stars looking for loot as captain of a massive battleship with full interiors of every ship.
