Hi Bullet community!!

Right now we have a physics based 3D space shooter. In the game, you move a space ship in an open universe (infinite, by the way) using its own propellers, that apply a force at the point they are attached to the ship. Enemies move applying forces too and projectiles and asteroids are physical objects to interact with. What you will feel while playing is a fluent game as no one you have seen before, because everything is physically simulated by the physical engine.

There is a split screen mode for two player battles. You can see it on the last screenshot.
