Also, with steam, don't you ahve to be online to play?  And could this ever be launched from a frontend / command line?

It's sorta like an action packed asteroids with harder enemies. I'll make a video of in game play. For the steam question, you can use it offline.  It can be launched from a frontend.  You just need to go the steam games folder and create a shortcut to the .exe.  Steams needs to be running tho to check for piracy or something like that.

You can actually find a load of great videos on youtube of the game..

Most are of people showing off their high score skills, so the screen will be filled with hundreds of enemies, but here is a good video showing the basic gameplay mechanics..

You control the shooting and moving controls seperately, so I would say it's much more like Robotron 2084 than Asteroids..

Wow that looks so amazing.  I assume you need dual analog sticks then?  I love the semi-vector look of it.  Robotron meets asteroids!
shorthair:
I don't see any Asteroids in it. Robotron with spatial distortion and no levels - it just keeps going. I've actually gotten pretty far with digital sticks.
(+_+):
Has anybody been able to setup up 2 Ultrasticks for grid wars. I can't seem to be able to set them up. I'll get one to move and the other doesn't fire and then one to fire and not move and then...  :hissy:

Is it me or does that config interface blow chunks? I love the game mind you, but man I'm about to freak out trying to get it to work like Robotron where one joystick moves and the other fires. Best I've been able to do is have it continuously fire in the direction I am moving. It feels like I am playing a football game in disguise.  ::)
