[PC] Free - Subpar Commander @ itch.io

200
(Somewhat belated) freebie game discovery:

I only recently found out that this indie RTS game - Subpar Commander (from the same developer of recently released Zortch) - was originally published on itch.io in 2017 and had a sale price at one point … and then afterwards, the game was made completely freeware in April 2023.

        Planetary annihilation?

        It's a real shame that supreme commander is probably one of the only actual strategy rts games (as opposed to tactics and micro focused rts). That scale was epic. Can't believe people actually want micro.

      • (just to clarify, my comment was in reply to grey13 where he said great commander..

        • Wing Commander or bust.

          • @Nukkels: god wing commander 3 was great (at least it was from what I can remember playing it as a 10 year old with no real frame of reference for any other flying game)

  • +2

    The first usage of the RTS Game tag. This is history.
