About this game
The developer's description, from the game's Steam store page.
PHOTOSENSITIVITY WARNING This game contains visual effects that may trigger seizures in people with photosensitive epilepsy.
LIKE A SPARK AGAINST THE NIGHT
Reignite humanity's future in a fight against an overwhelming force in this physics-based survivors-like set in a militaristic, grounded sci-fi universe. There will be moments of triumph as you move down enemy lines with your superior firepower and moments of chaotic escape as the only thing that matters is to survive.
RELY ON AUTOMATED SYSTEMS OR TAKE DIRECT CONTROL
Let your crew engage targets as they see fit or switch to manual Fire Control System and unleash a focused barrage. Designate individual high-priority targets with your mouse.
If controlling the ship gets tough enable Flight Assist and steer toward the cursor. Keep direct control for maximum responsiveness or use both as needed.
THERE'S NO SPEED LIMITS IN SPACE
Tired of arbitrary speed limits in space? Starships behaving like atmospheric fighter jets? Inertia that barely exists? You’ll find none of that here. Engage in slower and intense combat or go as fast as you can until an asteroid stops you.
YOUR SHIP, NEWTON'S LAWS
The Finest Spark is built around approachable physics-based, momentum-driven gameplay where inertia matters and collisions might be fatal. Navigate tight spaces, evade incoming threats and use physics to your advantage. Remember: bigger, denser objects always have the right of way.
CREW IS THE LIMIT
At the core of every ship stands its crew — well-trained and hardened but still nearly hopeless against their oldest adversary: G-loads. Push your ship too far for too long, and the mission may end early. On the bright side, as your crew ranks up, they'll handle G-loads a little better while you gain higher chances of coming across more advanced weapons and ship upgrades.
EVERY END IS A NEW BEGINNING
Destroy enemies, collect EXPARTS, and hold out as long as possible. Every mission advances both your crew rank and permanent ship upgrades. Defeat is nothing more than a step toward commanding an increasingly powerful space beast.
Do you have what it takes to survive the [REDACTED] swarm?
See you out there, Captain.
