For a while now I have been trying to remember the name of a game I played a
year or so back. It was a space combat game with strategy/RPG elements, as far
as upgrading your ship was concerned. It was all played out in third person,
you could upgrade your ship as the game went on to destroyers or carriers and
one of the last weapon types you got was a kind of black hole/point
singularity projector. You could attach all sorts of addons to your hull like
litterally dozens of different armours, each with different effects and as the
game progressed these would increase in level/effectiveness. Also there was no
up and down, everything playing out on a flat plane but there were planets and
stars to fly around, although hopelessly out of scale. It was the typical
affair where you fight one enemy and then part through the game another enemy
is revealed, which reminded me a lot of the Bionts from Archimedean Dynasty,
before they ruined the rest of the series later on.

Anyone remember or even picture this game? I keep thinking of Star Wolves but
its not that as you can go up and down as well.
