A.I. Space Corps

About

You take control of a ragtag fleet in a war against self-aware machines. Maneuver ships in real time while managing resources and upgrading tech to survive brutal waves of enemies. The story unfolds through sparse text logs as you balance combat with base building and research. Tactics matter more than reflexes with each decision impacting long term progress. Released in 2016 it carved a niche with its focus on asymmetric warfare and squad management. While not graphically flashy the minimalist art style keeps attention on strategy. A small but dedicated player base still discusses optimal loadouts and AI behavior patterns online. The 20 hour campaign offers a lean but satisfying experience for those who prefer thinking over twitch.
