Evochron Renegades Released This Month

Another space simulator was released recently for the PC platforms.
Developed and published by StarWraith 3D Games LLC, but designed by Shawn Bower, Evochron Renegades has some unique features which differentiate it among freeform First Person 3D Space-Sim games.

A wide range of choices like buying, trading, negotiating, bribing, spying, racing, transporting, mining, exploring, cleaning equipment, clearing paths through asteroid fields, recruiting, protecting, hiring crew members, fuel harvesting, and designing your ship, are make this game very complex.
You can easily switch between single and multiplayer modes, without losing the upgrades, ships, equipment, money, and commodities you eared. Same thing happens when joining different multiplayer sessions.

Forget about the loading screens or sudden environment flipping.
The game’s universe is limitless and you can travel everywhere, anytime.

You can build a space ship to compete in races and win credits; set up a tractor beam to clean large solar arrays; convert star particles into fuel which can be sold for an increasing profit.
Learn how to make money and advance.

Participate in retrieval missions together with other players in multiplayer mode, and share the rewards.
The Clan ID linking system helps identifying players from the same group.
The different IDs show hostile contacts.

Explore planets during rain, snow or turbulences, and find hidden objects, trade at city stations, mine their surfaces for valuable materials, or hide in their atmospheres.
Have complete control of the universe by moving objects in space, removing or replacing them, and change the environment.

Encounter the zero gravity inertia based Newtonian style flight model which includes complete 3-way rotation and 3-way direction control with optional variable input.

The game supports keyboard, mouse, gamepad, and joystick flight control, but also the Natural Point's TrackIR 3D head control system for managing the viewpoint from the cockpit with all six degrees of movement.
