We just pushed V 14.0 live on Steam this morning! We have some big features in this version: - The Tutorial is replacing Target Practice. It's the exact same map, but is now instanced for each ship that starts in it. Think of it as a built in Wiki, which I wrote to cover the basics. Between this and the Controls display, just about anyone can figure out the basics of the game. You can redo the tutorial from the main menu at any time. - Related: We added the Controls display button to the lobby menu, so people can read it before jumping onto a ship. Hopefully they'll read the controls, and then start the tutorial. - In Game voice chat is now implemented! Once you connect to the voice server and pick a channel, you can use the left alt key as your push to talk key. For those on mobile devices, we added a PTT button, as well. Currently, you can choose between the Alpha, Beta, and Delta channels, or the Scenario/Your Ship channels if you're on a ship. We'll tweak this function more over time. - You want to add your friends? You can! If you're in the lobby, you can click on their name while they're on a ship, and you'll get a popup menu. You can add that player to your friends list, and that player will be displayed in green. You can even filter the ship list by Friends, and see which ships they're on. Need someone's voice chat muted? You can also do that from the popup menu. Note that the Friends/Muted feature is tied to your account, and will sync up regardless of which device you log in from! - Open Space 2.0 is BACK! We fixed the issues that it was causing, and now you can return to it for your PvE mission cravings. - On that note, The original Open Space has been renamed to "PvP Sandbox", to better differentiate the two. If you want PvP, then go to PvP Sandbox or one of the PvP scenarios. If you prefer PvE/Roleplaying, OS2 is the place to be for that. - Several bug fixes. - Is the Tutorial not enough information for you? Then look in the Community Guides section, and check out the Quintet Comprehensive Guide I posted this morning! It's filled with information about the races, ships, and strategies. A note for iOS users: It should take 7-10 days for the update to go live there. For Android users, it should take 2-4 days for Play Store approval. For those downloading from our website, just download the latest version right now.

You've always wanted to sit in a big captain's chair and shout, "More power to the shields!" and "Fire the torpedoes!" I have too, and this is why I built Quintet.
Quintet is a scifi cooperative, cross-platform, multiplayer, "crew" game where players work harmoniously to control the same ship. There are 5 roles: Captain, Helm, Tactical, Engineering and Science. How successful you are will depend on how well you all work together. You can play Quintet for hours for free and enjoy 20 playable ships online. There are 5 additional ships available with an upgrade.
Truly multiplatform - No one is left out!
Mac, PC, Linux, iOS, and Android can all play together on the same ships and in the same missions. The Captain can be on an iPhone with a Tactical officer on a Linux box with an Engineer on an Android tablet with a Science officer on a Mac.
No friends? No problem!
Quintet has one, two, three, four and five player ships. All the different ship types can all play together in the same scenarios. Quintet plays over the Internet so you can all play together even if you can't be in the same room. Easily drop in and drop out any time.
No Internet, no cry
Playing in offline mode or in LAN mode? You'll have access to everything (all scenarios and Trio ship too). Not sure if you want to upgrade? Just set the game to offline mode and try it out first! I figured this was the good Indie game developer thing to do.
Several game types
Quintet features lots of different scenarios for co-op and pvp game play. Work together to fend off a massive armada or have a 20-ship free-for-all. Upgraded version includes beloved game types such as Capture the Flag and King of the Hill (my hill is a polyhedron).
Always Fresh
I love working on this game. I update Quintet all the time. I'm constantly adding new features and new scenarios. Got an idea? Post your idea in the forum.
Intuitive controls
I wanted non-gamers to be able to play Quintet. I've simplified and streamlined the interface so you can drag in more friends of yours to play this crazy space game.
Control DMX and Philips HUE Lights
Get immersive! Quintet has a built in simple scripting language for controlling DMX lights and Philips HUE lights. You can trigger lights when you fire weapons or when the shields are hit.
