Machinations is a real-time strategy game where you manage and direct swarms of ships to take over and destroy your enemies. Plan your attacks carefully to gain the the most tactically advantageous Nodes (space-stations which build and house your fleet). Upgrade your Nodes with defensive lasers or build shipyards to augment your fleet. Capture super-weapons to cut swathes through your enemies' fleet. Play against up to three AI players in frantic, randomised melees matches. Or complete the Campaign mode to help Admiral Sudo (your robotic commander) reclaim his lost empire.

Present in versions 0.0.1 and 0.0.2 . Currently, a player is defeated when it loses control of all stations. However, this is too simple a rule to determine defeat. A simple scenario to demonstrate this is when a player controls a single station with a large number of ships. A player should only be defeated when they control no stations and also have no ships on the playing field. The following two screenshots show a situation where the player (green) has been declared defeated, but has a number of ships still in play, then a few seconds later still showing defeat, despite the fact that those ships then went on to takeover and control a station. -- MilkFairy |
