Solo-developed Executive Assault 2 out now on Steam Early Access

RTS/FPS-hybrid space combat game Executive Assault 2 has just launched on Steam Early Access and I'd love to give you a couple of keys to review the game and also try out the multiplayer.


You'll be pretty amazed to discover that a game of this size and scope has been single-handedly designed and coded by self-taught developer Rob Hesketh.

Played largely as a strategy game, Executive Assault 2 also lets players take direct control of any unit on the battlefield at the click of a button. At any time you can jump between any troop, weapon emplacement or ship on the battlefield for FPS combat or command entire fleets in top-down RTS mode.
