Tasty-looking space games fill the atmosphere nowadays like satellite launch debris, but perhaps you'll find room in your weirdly adapted magnetic fishing net for one more - Kaigan's Nullspace. I came across it in yesterday's Indie Fan Fest stream, and I quite like the cut of its torpedo bays.

Nullspace grabs me for a couple of reasons. One is its "retrofuturistic universe", which strikes me as both sleek and cosy. It's kind of chibi Homeworld. The kitbashed ships come alive with swivelling turrets and manoeuvring jets, but something about the way they're proportioned, patterned and lit also makes me think of freshly piped cake icing. I also quite like the Star Fox-style jabbering heads of unit commanders in the bottom corner.
