Are You Ready For Content Update #2?

A big update is going to drop in a month or so! You'll be able to purchase 2 new fighters, play in third-person view, and attach new equipment to your ship. Online DRM will also be removed.

New Ships

You've asked for new ships, and you've been heard! You will soon be able to fly two new sleek-looking fighters.

Third-Person View

This was another highly-requested feature. A lot of effort has gone into making sure that both your first-person and third-person flying experiences are as smooth and fun as possible.

Removal of Online DRM

I don't want to punish players for having Internet connection problems! In this latest update, I'll remove the requirement that you be online to play. (Thank you to the gaming community for bringing this important concern to my attention!)

Attachments

Attachments are upgradeable micro-equipment that you can add to your ship to give it an extra edge in combat. Upgrade six new attachments up to four times each to improve your locking range, EMP time, boost speed, or other stats.

...And More

Additional graphical effects and several feature enhancements have been added to improve your game play experience. Some bugs have also been squashed.

Overview

Humanity's warlike ways have continued into the space age. In Hypergate, you play a new recruit of the Novan Interplanetary Alliance---and your side is losing a war that could cost more than your lives alone. Master space fighter combat amid a crumbling Alliance. Fight in a single-player campaign, or build your own battles for single-player mode or for local gameplay with friends. Upgrade your ships and weapons. And most importantly, do not disengage your shields or engines.

Single-Player Campaign

Fight for the Alliance and play a 10-mission campaign as a new recruit. During the campaign, you will engage in combat against a variety of fighters and heavily-armed cruisers. Choose strategic targets to limit enemy reinforcements and maximize your probability of success. Total campaign play time is approximately 2 hours and includes a brief tutorial mission.

Instant Action

Build your own customized battles, whether they're small skirmishes or massive multi-fleet assaults! Configure the presence and number of fighters, cruisers, and reinforcement gates. Up to six different teams of any of the three factions are supported. This gameplay mode supports both single-player and LAN play.

Upgrade Your Ship

Collect credits in the single-player campaign and purchase upgrades for your fighter! Four levels of upgrades are supported for four different components: shields, laser cannons, missile packs, and coolant.
