I am pleased to finally reveal that Airships: Conquer the Skies will be at gamescom this year, August 18 - 21.
The game will be part of the Indie Arena in Hall 10.1, along with more than 80 other games from Switzerland, Germany, and across the world. Airships will have a full-sized booth where you can learn about the game, try it out, and ask me questions. I'll be showing version 9 with its sky krakens and giant spiders.
There will also be cute papercraft airships for you to take home and glue together. I'm still working on those, but I have the shape pretty much down, and they'll be ready by August.
I'm looking forward to seeing you at gamescom! If you are a games writer or streamer, and would like to meet for an in-depth look at the game or an interview during gamescom, do get in touch.

In the game, ships are viewed side-on, and their modules are operated by individual crew members. During combat, players give high-level commands to a small fleet, positioning their ships, ramming and boarding others. Ships and terrain are fully destructible: they can catch fire, explode, break apart, and fall. Players can also compete against one another in Internet and LAN matches.
The ships are highly detailed, teeming with sailors moving around at their individual tasks, like an ant farm or a cut-away drawing. The player's choices in ship layout are crucial, and an important part of the game is exploring the design space of different airships and their matching tactics.
