    Amazing work, really really nice.

    A few things to note though... if you make amazing things the rest of the game needs to keep up!

    For example...

    1) You can now look at the system from any direction... that makes the 2D orbits look out of place and out dated...
    2) With such a camera... you must admit adding space battles to it would look super cool! (In fact the camera starts to remind me of Homeworld!) (I am perfectly aware this has been asked a billion times, I am not asking for it, I am just static a fact :D)

    Jokes aside, I understand these would be major undertakings.
    If this game turns out good as it is though... I hope the developers consider creating another kick starter to add 3D orbits and real space battles. I would happily contribute again. That would be at least year down the line so more powerful computers on average will also be available.

    Great stream video, thanks.

    i think it has been said many times now that adding a whole lot of spaceunits and space gameplay
    would require a totaly different ui it would change the game entirely .. there is also a high danger of making other already implemented content just straight out redundant ...
    orbital is what shall sort of replace that spacecombatpart without taking the focus away from the groundbattles that are actualy meant to be the main combatpart of the game ...
    at best i could see spacebattles to be an entirely different gametype or just a limited number of spaceunits (mainly tranports or carriers) be put in .. but going all homeworldspace warfare is just too much of a gamechanger imo ..
