Stellar Commanders is a one on one multiplayer RTS where players choose their arsenal of units to wage war against each other. It plays like a traditional real time strategy game, but each round is only seven minutes before the tiny planetoid blows up to smithereens.

In a future filled with conflict and scarcity, earth’s most precious metal is found to exist in small planetoids. To seize control of the Iridium buried beneath the surface of these celestial bodies, players must first engage their enemies on the surface in a tactical land grab. Is it more efficient to become a destructive force that subdues the enemy opposition, or better to be a surgical, strategic conqueror that snatches key territory quickly?

Players must decide based on the terrain, available resources and their opposition, taking action before seven minutes is up.

The speedy 1 vs 1 battles will see each player align with a different faction and choose units based on a deep roster of unlockable futuristic troops; from rockets, tanks and stealth generators to bombastic orbital satellites, all of which will help determine tactical decisions. This is our first multiplayer strategy game and one that we’ve been excited about for some time – it seemed like a perfect next step after the huge success of First Strike.

Combining the First Strike community’s feedback about making a multiplayer strategy title with our own love of ‘90s RTS games has resulted in Stellar Commanders, which will have all the fast-paced fun of a modern, tactical RTS as well as a touch of nostalgia.

Stellar Commanders was built from the ground up to be just as original and frantic, while giving it a brand new arsenal building system to create more strategic depth than First Strike ever had. It is supposed to be the perfect game to invite your friends and play a round against each other at any time.
