- Price Decrease! - 10 October 2018
Space Fighters was my first indie-game on Steam, it was about seven months ago when I first released Space Fighters and boy, it was one hell of an adventure and an excellent learning experience. Due to some time having passed since Space Fighters release, and Space Fighters gathering virtual dust on virtual hard-drives, I have made the decision to drop it's price from $4.99 to $1.99 dollars! I hope this will bring back a little recognition to Space Fighters and make it easier to further play and enjoy this game!

I am happy to announce that starting from today, the first of October until the 8th of October, Space Fighters will take part in the week long Steam sale! For the duration of the sale, Space Fighters will be 30% off. See you out there on the galactic battlefield!

- Space Fighters Is Getting Remade From Scratch! - 9 June 2018
Hello everyone! I know I haven't said anything in a long time and there has been an obvious lack of recent updates or announcements regarding the game, until now. Ever since the latest release of Space Fighters I have had some time to think about the future of where Space Fighters is headed, and additionally I have had time to further practice and hone my Unity programming skills. And so, I have come to the conclusion that Space Fighters- and more importantly, the community who bought and used to play the game, deserve more than what they received, Space Fighters simply deserves more than the state it was left in almost 2 months ago. In order to bring about the new improvements Space Fighters so desperately deserves, I have began work on the new Space Fighters. I intend to write the whole game, and more, completely from scratch. There will be no price increase and no new game package/DL…
- Version 0.5 And a More Fun Battlefield! - 23 April 2018
After observing for the last few weeks, it became clear the core gameplay of Space Fighters was missing something, and so I have added some fun and exciting features to spice up the gameplay experience! https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F31982102%2F628c22257ac784cc4c2c699ff6bef87d6284541f.png In order to encourage team work between players and to add more things for players to do while playing, I added four different classes of ships, each meant to fulfill a different role in our battlefield of asteroids and capture points. The Rocketship The rocketship is less a rocket-engine power ship and more a ship fitted with a rocket launcher. This awesome rocket launching ship moves slower than other ships and has a slower reloading time for it's rocket launcher, but at the same time it offers unmatched firepower and deals a lot of damage to anyone unlucky enough to…
