Taking Direct Control of the CSV Leonidas

Ready to see Starship Command: Orion Spur in action? We’ve got something special for you this month.

Our Unity Developer, Dustin Weitkunat, walks you through a skirmish match showcasing the direct control tactical gameplay that makes SCOS unique. While you can command from the bridge through your officers, sometimes you need to take the helm yourself.

What You’ll See:

Watch Dustin demonstrate the power balancing systems that make every decision matter. Do you divert power to shields during an enemy barrage, or push it to weapons for that critical killing blow? The heat management system adds another layer of strategy—push your systems too hard and you’ll risk damaging your own ship.

You’ll see real-time tactical maneuvering as Dustin pilots the Leonidas through a heated engagement, managing power distribution between weapons, shields, and engines while coordinating firing solutions and defensive positioning. This isn’t just point-and-click combat—it’s authentic starship warfare where every choice has consequences.

The seamless transition between bridge command and direct control gives you the flexibility to lead how you want to lead.

This is just a taste of what’s coming in our demo release this fall.
