I'm playing it right now, actually. Must...remember...to blink.... :shock:

Damn fun game. I'm going to be looking into Devnull, P&N, or Proportions for my next game. Oh, if only the Art of War mod were done...

What I'd like to see is a moddable space empires type game with a truly customizable AI, one where you could sit back and watch the computer play off against itself, basically.

Er...where did you get the demo, if not from the same site where they sell the game online? :?

http://www.shrapnelgames.com

You buy the game online there. You can't buy it in stores, because it's a small-name publisher that can't afford shelf-space in the stores.

Discuss.

Also, how does SE4 compare to more recent 4X games like Galactic Civilizations (heh) or Starships Unlimited? Should I just wait for SE5?

Scroll down to the Space Empires 4 Gold Demo and see for yourself what sort of game it is. :)
