GRTV: Starvoid interview

Play RTS as if it was FPS.

Swedish game developers Zeal Game Studios came to a LAN party and wanted to play some multiplayer RTS, but found that setting up, balancing teams and making sure everyone was available to play for long enough was a bit of a chore. The solution was to design a brand new game, a real time strategy experience that has a lot in common with the accessible drop in action of a first person shooter online.

The resulting game, {Starvoid}, was announced at GDC under the name Red Frontier (later changed), and we caught up with game director Rasmus Davidsson to find out more about this upcoming release.
