Wishlisted... Looks similar to an oldie.
Looks promising, stuick it on my wishlist.

One game I have had for years and wish there was a successor to was, Starshatter and the DLC, The Gathering Storm.

This looks close, but SS had FPSim aspect and you started as a fighter pilot and worked your way up to Captain of a Destroyer and could go all the way to commanding a Carrier.

It was EPIC. LOVED THAT GAME!!

Since then, nothing has filled that void. Does anyone remember StarShatter, or played that game?

I still have the hard copies of both games and they were and still are great space warfare games. I believe I got them from Matrix Games way back

Ahhh yes, that's it. Matrix games. Did Milo ever release the source code?
If that was updated to a somewhat modern version, that would be awesome!!
Dev's should check it out for a comparison and some inspiration.

Nebulous is still a buy for me though.
Yeah, he released the source code back in 2011 which prompted the Starshatter Open Source Project (Similar to FreeSpace 2 Open) but unfortunately it didn't get very far off the ground before it was abandoned, well, effectively anyways. You can check it out over at FSO's Forum over here where the project is hosted:

Anyways, Nebulous definitely gave me similar vibes akin to Starshatter from what I've seen. Looking forward to playing around with it next month!
