[hr][/hr][h3]Latest Update News: Fleet Editor Upgrades and Carriers Update News[/h3]

I’ve been working hard on the upcoming Carriers update that will be released on January 10th.

The Carriers will make their entrance as both dedicated hulls and modular add-ons for existing ships in each of the game’s factions. With them come launchable craft that span a variety of roles and designs. This update also introduces several new spaceframes, expanded customization options, and adjustments to ensure smaller spacecraft fit seamlessly into the evolving balance of play.

You can check out the trailer here:

While that’s in progress, I've released a new patch that improves the Fleet Editor, including updated UI, copy/paste functionality, and better ammo tracking. Ship handling has been fine-tuned, and weapons now deliver a punchier, more satisfying sound design.

See you in the battlespace.

I feel guilty about repeatedly comparing Nebulous: Fleet Command to Homeworld, inasmuch as it's an appalling bait-and-switch. It's like offering somebody a cake that is actually a cunningly painted hunk of torpedo fuselage. It's like offering to shake hands while wearing one of those comedy hand buzzers - except that the hand buzzer is an intricate simulation of zero-G physics, missile behaviours and comms jamming, featuring spacecraft with proper internal layouts that require you to think hard about attitude control if you don't want, say, your engines to become Swiss cheese about 90 seconds before you need to retreat from combat.

Being a "true" 3D real-time space strategy game, Nebulous looks and sounds a lot like Homeworld on the surface, but it's nothing like as straightforward. It is systems within systems. It is a game in which you can, theoretically, plot the path of a single guided munition through an asteroid field, so as to catch an enemy cruiser in the back. I barely understand how to make a ship fire on another ship, using plain old armour-piercing shells, and now they're threatening to add carriers, fighters and bombers. Customisable ones! The humanity. Here's a trailer.

[h3]Hello Spacers! [/h3]

The Autumn Sale is underway, and so are this year’s Steam Awards. If you’ve enjoyed your galactic skirmishes, I hope you’ll consider nominating Nebulous: Fleet Command for the Labor of Love Award.



In the last year, NEBULOUS: Fleet Command has received several quality-of-life updates and feature additions to improve the gameplay experience and incorporate the valuable player feedback we’ve received through our forums. Our recent 0.3.2.22 update brings some much-needed upgrades to the Fleet Editor and its UI. We also adjusted the roll logic for ships with fixed weapons, made skirmish HUD icons moddable, and removed the berthing compartment from the game to improve the new player experience and free up additional compartment slots. The next major milestone for the game will be our Carriers update, which will introduce a brand new type of ship and several other features.

Creating this content for NEBULOUS: Fleet Command really has been a labor of love, and it couldn’t have been done without the support of this community. Thank you all so much for your continued support of NEBULOUS: Fleet Command.
