Blackspace is definitely looking like an indie game to watch. Dubbed by its team of two ex-Electronic Arts developers as a “Defensive Action RTS,” this game is like a cross between tower defense, Red Faction, RTS base building, and a 3D ‘Lunar Lander,’ played through the eyes of what’s essentially a Starcraft SCV.
(GDC) The Gamer - "Our behind the scenes look at BlackSpace blew us away - here's what Crimson Desert will look like."
Indie Game HQ has provided a list of their five best Kickstarter campaigns that failed but showed great potential. Luckily, it appears as though all of these Kickstarter projects will still see the light of day, albeit at a much later date than anticipated.
"Blackspace stands out from the bunch thanks to it’s wonderfully clean visuals and attractive design, but further distinguishes itself as you learn more about the game. Using your mining vehicle, you are able to defend your asteroid by creating valleys in the fully destructible environments using the game’s physics engine."
