Hey you schmucks welcome to a quick look at a cool free to play game on steam called Istrolid. The game is about building your own fleet of space ships fitted with the best guns and propulsion for the speed or size your looking for. Anything from a swarm of small fighters to a large battleship, the choice is yours.
The game is currently has 3 game modes in its beta form. Multiplayer, Challanges and Campaign. The multiplayers allows you to battle your fleets against others. Challenges allows you to choose from a list of missions to beat in any order you wish. Campaign mode sets you though the Universe one star at a time, unlocking new technology after deafeating each challange. You can often decide with path to take through the stars allowing you to go around harder missions, or even cut straight through toward the bosses and cool weapons.
There is a design mode where you can customize your crafts using everything available in the game, preparing you for your challanges or multiplayers battles. The different types of blocks are broken down into 4 tabs in the top left. There are a few different levels of armor with different wieghts to each as well as unique shapes, even shields can be unlocked giving extra defense. Every part has its pro's and con's since the more you put on the slower you will be. You also have to consider that you need reactors to power the thrusters and guns for extrended periods of time. You can even set up support ships and decoy drones to aid you in the battles ahead. You can save up to 10 ships on your lineup and these can be swapped in and out as well as around in the Fleet Screen.
I have had a ton of fun playing the campaign mode unlocking lots of weapons varying from Lasers, torpedos, even a gun to pull your enemys closer to you! If you are in Campaign mode it will take time to fill out all the options available to you in Design mode.
I hope you guys have a blast exploring Istrolid like I did, its free to play on steam. Dont forget to like this video and were out!
