ZeroSpace is an awesome RTS with some huge names from SC2 helping in development, current Alpha stage is open until 22nd of January so I might stream it a bit on my twitch channel :) Make sure to check out and let me know what you thought!

The game gives some first dawn of war vibes. And there the usage of hero units was perfect. Also playing for map controll was very good - capturing towers. And I loved how actuall units were in squads moving together.

Looking forward to Stormgate, enjoying the beta for it A LOT. ZeroSpace though, I hope it pans out, but I don't see it.

If you honestly enjoy playing a game, there's nothing wrong with sponsoring it as long as you're still transparent about how you feel about it :^)

This looks a lot more interesting to me than Stormgate so far. Seems like it'll be a nightmare to balance but all the varying options between races, mercenaries, abilities etc is really cool.

TIL that ZeroSpace and Stormgate are separate games. I saw Stormgate trailer some time ago forgot how it was called. Then ZeroSpace came and I was like "ah yes, that is the new RTS I saw some time ago".

More vids on this please. And an alpha that looks 10x better than some AAA studios full releases, looks very interesting

@@VittamarFasuthAkbin You said it. Both sc1 and sc2 look far better than this game even being 20 plus years old. I get that this is a beta but man the art design looks so generic. Nothing feels cohesive its like they pulled random designs out of a bunch of games and through it together. With modern engines and far more power than ever I expected something a little more inspiring in 2024. This game looks like a free to play game from 2014.I get that its an indie game but doesn't excuse such poor art direction.

The reason the behemoths seemed weak is bc you didn't use their ability, the faerie fire sets the ground ablaze and deals a ton of damage.

Absolutely happy to see zero space on the channel

Heroes work much like your Explorer or "Hero" does in Age of Empires 3. Early scouting and some early defense.

Yes! Funny that i spend immeasurable amounts of time in Age of Empires 3 in the childhood and yet not get this analogy faster. That was a very clever designed unit. He even do tiny amount of damage against workers, so player with better micro cant harass out enemy economy from first minutes with Explorer, you need actual combat units for this.

I love SC2, but it's always good to see more modern RTS. I used to take them for granted in late 90s and 00s, since there was a new RTS every week back then, but now you really have look out for a good one. I also played Tempest Rising demo, and it seemed pretty decent as well, so hopefully we'll get some new stuff soon

The grass creep is clever and fun

This is looking really good. Aesthetically I'm totally sold on it. The animations feel a bit clunky still, like that snowman walking on air, wtf, and some other animations of units moving kinda lifeless. But overall, it looks really good to me. Hope I can understand the mechanics a bit better so I can determine if I'll really enjoy it. Would love to see more spell casters, or maybe in this coulpe of games I they didin't make much.

100% I think it’s good to remember this is still in alpha There will be LOTS of room to grow (and polish) What I think is good to look for in alpha is just the ‘feel’ of the game

The constant recalls seem extremely irritating to me. At very least they need to increase the cooldown / recall capacity. Full army recalls on every bad push, just makes commitment meaningless

Looks great! You are as much fun in Zero Space as you are in StarCraft2! Would love to see more.

To me this looks way better than Stormgate, The unit clarity here is great in comparison and gameplay easier to follow. Also looks like it is a lot further along in development. Exciting times for RTS :) this one is looking great!

TTK not so big i think (but still bigger than in Starcraft 2? But its because SC 2 have very small ttk comparing to all other RTS) so yes, must be animations and sound, and this all be fixed in time.

Yes please, more of this! The units of this game are very visually different from each other, so it's easy to watch. Also the tons of new stuff is wonderful to see!

I see that someone learns from StarCraft - the units are distinct and easily identifiable, which is a must for any proper RTS game, since if it takes more than a split second to figure out what units you are looking at, then the player base will remain very casual at best...

Recently it seems like the graphics have gotten really REALLY good glad this year has some strong RTS games coming out!!

Yea this and Tempest Rising !

I love this game right away, the vibe is so refreshing after watching a ton of sc2. I love the vivid colors of this tree bug race, love the concept of a conquering race that seems to be bringing life and beauty instead of just an ugly ass creep with body horror elements to everything for the sake of being more 'alien'. Everything about this game is interesting, from the xp towers to the mercenary choices to the infuse ability, which looks so freakin cool. I think the only thing I didn’t like was the heroes, but as the game progresses they become less significant, and I can't deny they add a lot to the early game and make it more interesting. The mercenaries especially are nice, it seems like players will have the option to counter specific units by using different mercenaries, which makes the overall strategy more important than just surprise. I would love to see more of this game on your channel Therm. It's really cool.

Looks like it flows very well, I'm sure being in the hands of an rts master helps in that regard. Love to see more

Very excited, I feel like this is a game I'll be INTO

Cool, thanks uThermal, glad to see ZeroSpace video!!! And would be great to see more of those! Interesting to know more about game mechanics and what's new comparing with other games!

Looks cool! Would love to see you learn it more and show it :D

Wow, that looks real great for an Alpha. Looking forward to see you play the other races, if you would like!

OMG. TY ! The best description of how this faction works i've seen so far. Plz do more!

That was really fun to watch! Please make more of those :D

I would love to see more! It would be nice to have some videos explaining more in depth what is happening/what the different buildings and units do

love the content marc! whatever you upload we are here for it

I do think visually this is more appealing to me than stormgate. But I really do hate heroes and mercenaries.

That was quite interesting, would love to see more from ZeroSpace on your Channel :)

This looks really great already, please more videos on it :)

Love to see entire fraction explanation when you learn how it supouse to be played.

I absolutely loved seeing this, great video!

that was awesome, ready for the new series to pop off

Starcraft: you can't defeat me Zero Space: but i can become you as well you become me

Always fun watching uThermal

Not being a SC2 player I'm very happy to see you vary your content, I just envoy your vibes anyway so if it's watching you on a game a might actualy play I feel like being even more entertained ^^

Looks better then many released from huge companies.

Keep up the good work uThermal

You are a good example of the joy of playing RTS games. I loved the play through, super easy to follow

This looks amazing Marc I signed up immediately lol. Not sure if you said this or not but what is the supply cap?

I'm just 10 minutes in, finished the intro and my first thoughts are good. THIS is what Stormgate's graphics should have looked like. Like an in-between of brood war and sc2. Not cartoony, aesthetically very pleasing.

Yess I’ve been waiting for this!

Thanks for letting know about this awesome game. I had no idea this existed. It looks prettty good too!

This looks fun! I actually want to play now

can't wait to see way way way more of this!

yeeey we missed you ^^ Hope you spent time well. =]

It's pretty fun to see you try new RTS games. "Turtle ninjas" 😂wwwwwww Looking forward to this!!✌️

the adrenaline of cheesing someone and the fear of getting cheesed is AMAZING...

Hmm, there was old RTS Ground Control, the main goal was to capture and hold certain points on the map. Quite similar mechanics here.

Hi uThermal, thank you so much for giving other RTS a try and honest reviews I do think it helps the RTS community to expand outside age of empire and starcraft for competitive scene. Regarding the hero thing, would you say the Khan in age of empire 4 is a good example of what could be done ? ( asking for futur game design projects as this is a tricky subject indeed )

I think between this and stormgate, we will have rts that will satisfy both groups of rts players. I still think stormgate has more long term potential with the whole package but this will probably be the better 1v1 game

Cool video, I would like to see more ZeroSpace content :)

Would love to see more! I’m a backer though so I’m biased haha 😅

I know it's just Zerg, but plants. The buildings and the grass look so good. Especially in the desert. It really adds to the bug motif. 10/10 design. I hope Stormgate infernals give off that vibe in the final build. This game looks like it's Halo Wars 2 meets Starcraft 2, and I'm here for it

Looks fun! Hard to follow because idk what the buildings are or what counters what.

I actually really like how this game feels right now. Like we don't need another sc2, we already have one,so it's good that's this game is different from sc2 and wc3, because it adds layer of quality. This game has clearly something to say new to the rts genre. Compare to stormgate, with feels like crappy miz of wc3 and sc2.

It's literally starcraft 2.

You could make a tutorial on how to pour a glass of milk and it would still be my favorite video of the day.

The viewpoint looks much better than Stormgate (less on top if that makes sense) and visibility is better but I really don't like heroes and seems a bit more complicated than SC2 for buildings etc.. The beauty of SC2 is it's simplicity almost with buildings and units. A few too many spells tbh but i'll keep an eye out. Seems more promising than SG tbh

We love you uThermal!

First time seeing this game, and I like its artstyle more than Stormgate

The upgrade tree you spend exp on reminds me of Company of Heroes, another RTS classic.

The terran/legion here looks so cool

This feels better than the one being developed by Frost Giant. This seems to take more from SC in terms of the overall feel of the game.

readability on this is so much better than stormgate or aoe4, very good to see I'm extremely against heroes and loss based comeback mechanics but it's refreshing to see them done in a way that actually looks like. it can. be fun, never expected to be saying that

Man, now I want to see you play Warcraft III!

War3 is my favorite game of all time. I love the hero element. But I hate mobas. But I totally understand why purist RTS players prefer a game without heroes. My opinion is that Starcraft already exists. There is no real reason to create another traditional straight-forward RTS like SC/AoE etc. Warcraft 3 was such a revolutionary game, ahead of its time, and the basis for Dota/Mobas and WoW. I think another hero-based RTS game to follow up on War3's legacy would be awesome. I don't need another Starcraft. I can totally appreciate all the viewpoints all around and have to say Zer0space looks awesome.

Did you ever play Dark Colony back in the day? It was a fav RTS b4 SC.

great video. more zerospace please (:

Game looks really cool, I might give it a try.

Loved it!

be kinda cool to see a uthermal side channel playing zero space cheeses.

They need to release warcraft IV and starcraft III. 1080minimum with 1440p and 4k graphics available . WCIV should start with mostly the same mechanics as III, just make pc requirements higher, and have smoother animations. I'm not sure any more races are needed. But they should add the naval aspect back... and they could possibly update the controls. They could add some mechanics that require camera manipulation. Starcraft II gets muddied with the into the void part of the campaign. Starcraft III could have some FPS elements put into it. They could have a multiplayer game where there is a general giving commands, but the heros are played by real players in FPS mode. it would really change the pace of the game, but it would make it a meaningful upgrade. it would be something between an fps and rts.

The other thing that needs to be rethought is supply lines vs supply depots... and upgrades. The units should have to go to the building that does the upgrades, or a transport vehicle needs to distribute the upgraded weapons. researching tech doesn't make much sense, but spooling up production does make sense. having injured units pile up could also be a thing.

When you capture a neutral tower does it ping on the map for the opponent regardless of fog?

Please video on all factions! :D

I really like the plant buildings. That faction looks like if the Zerg where the good guys.

Damn i wish i could get my hands on this game rn. Need this

Yes! More of this please!!!

This looks incredibly promising. I love the concepts that were pulled in from other games. Having contested points for XP and 2nd resource is a great way to increase interaction. Also really like the approach to heroes so far. Great early game and getting weaker as it gets longer. My only complaint is that I didn't see an obvious cannon rush option, which frankly spells doom for any game /s

looks really interesting - my 1st look at stormgate wasnt like "fuck yeah" , but maybe this - i really like the graphicstyle

Someone needs to sponsor this man.

This looks like what ive been waiting for! Starcraft 3!

This looking good

i think this looks so much better than stormgate. could look a bit better here and there but overall it looks very well rounded and much better than most rts games. sounds especially needs improvement aswell as the interface (either more intersting/exciting or even more subtle) but its alpha and i assume there will be still improvements till release. and i really hope this will be a success and solid game. question: don't they want to add a fourth race which is mechanical/robot focused like the pure opposite of grell? would really love to fund the project a bit but i am quite low on the income side at the moment. >.

Sick !!! ❤❤ more vids !!

i was hoping you'd cover this

Art style and UI is way more appealing to me compared to Stormgate. I couldnt speak to gameplay but just from looking this is a lot more likely to get my download.

This looks FANTASTIC to watch, non stop fights. Fights are difficult to judge, but way better than stormgate already.

Looks pretty interesting, like the visuals, definitetly hard to tell whats going on at a glance other then missle spam.

This seems pretty cool

Seve muy divertido, me recuerda mucho a los mods de SC2 con comandantes en una buena combinacion con warcraft 3, se ve bastante interesante y divertido de jugar

I'd rather play this one than Stormgate. There's something off in Stormgate that I can't pinpoint, but here, Zerospace goes to the right direction. It's readable, the mechanics look cool, etc

That thing that shoots a barrage of missle and mobile is just a juiced up version of the siege tank. Seems OP

Please do some more videos showing off the other two races, thanks!

Looked good and fun. I hadn't heard of this one before. I know you said this is alpha.. do they have a roadmap with a ballpark of when they expect to release

I think the way it should work is that Heroes should promote from your regular units achievements.

more of this content would be good. Maybe some commentary from the devs in a post game review would be cool.

Did you ever play dark reign? That was by far my favourite RTS

Seems like it's a mix of Starcraft 2 campaign elements (heros & mercenaries), and Company of Heroes control points with base Starcraft mechanics.
