My little brother has been playing an early development version of DarkFighter for months now, asking me all the time when it's going to be released :)

If he's obsessed with a demo then I'm sure the final game will be phenomenal!

Thanks. When I started it was pretty quiet (basically 1 or 2 RTS games on the App Store) but now there are plenty!

Any chance you might add instant weapon type things, like nukes or healing a certain area, like on halo wars?

Each ship has either direct damage weapons or projectiles (or both).

The initial release will keep the game rules pretty simple. We will be expanding the game quite a bit after the release, but it's pretty hush hush right now :)

Due to some problems, we've merged the Australian and International release into one new release. They're both now 18th of June.
