Stellar Warfare

Stellar Warfare is a space combat strategy game where players command fleets in tactical engagements across star systems. Manage resources, construct various warship classes, and deploy them in real-time skirmishes to achieve galactic dominance. The game emphasizes fleet customization, positioning, and timing in battles, requiring players to balance offense and defense while adapting to enemy movements. Success depends on efficient resource allocation, ship selection, and tactical decision-making during dynamic space encounters.

About this game

Stellar Warfare Overview

Classic style RTS with ship customization and complete 3D space movement. A self-funded and published passion project inspired by RTS games such as Red Alert, Homeworld and Supreme Commander. Find loot, compose your fleet and use it to face off against other players or the AI in this unique sci-fi experience!

Gameplay

Build an economy, build a base, capture space stations and spawn units to fight the enemy. Stellar Warfare plays very similar to how Red Alert used to play, but with tons of building and unit options!

Loot items to improve ships

Enemies you destroy occasionally drop blueprints for ship frames, weapons or modules. You can use these to modify your units and compose a fleet to defeat your opponents with.

These units can then be bought in-game like you would in a traditional RTS. The big difference is that these units are tailored to your own play-style. Fast raiders, tanky bruisers, building killing sneaky units or swarms of small ships are all possible!

There are currently 60 ship frames, 50 weapons and 25 modules to find which result in over a million possible combinations!

Basebuilding

Power-plants, refineries, turrets, resource enhancers, artillery buildings, repair stations and many more. Choose from over 40 buildings to place & 5 different neutral buildings to capture.
