Combining the strategy of chess with the classic arcade shoot'em up is possible? Try it playing Supernova: Galactic Wars!

Choose your side: the evil Red Legion with her charismatic leader Tanja or the mystic Blue Army and his Great Council? Every side has 10 unique ships, for a total of 20 ships available for you to control. Each ship has up to 3 different types of fire for a total of 26 different weapons!

Featuring Story Mode game and Quickbattle. In Story Mode you'll lead your faction to the conquest of the galaxy, destroying the opposition. In Quickbattle you'll be able to setup a custom match choosing from 5 different maps (each one with different playing strategy) and build your own fleet ship to ship.

But how is the game played? Easy, you can move your ships on the battlefield like a chess game, and when 2 ships move in the same spot the arcade fun starts! You'll be able to fight against the other ship in realtime, using arrow keys to move and 1,2,3 or Z,X,C keys to shoot!

Limitations:
The demo allows you to play up to 3 missions for both sides and to setup Quickbattles with only 150 credits available and using only the smallest ship.

What's New:
fixed wrong statistic bug in the result screen
you can quit from the fight itself pressing “Q” key when paused
Phantom Shield now grants only a bonus of half-damage from shots (not full immunity as before) to better balance the game
added survivor battle mode, you'll be in control of the mothership and you'll have to survive as long as possible! After you destroy an opponent, a new one will appear after 10 seconds. In this short time you'll be able to pickup a repair bonus to restore some of the ship lost hitpoints.

Requirements:
CPU 600+ MHZ / 256MB RAM
OpenGL Graphic Card
with 16mb of memory minimum.
