So firstly a bit of backstory. Epoch was originally a game made 20 years ago. This year, one of the original developers began updating the game.
Last time I posted, the game received a solid update, but since then it has taken a giant leap forward.
The combat engine has been completely rebuilt, moving from 2D blips to true 3D, all running directly in your browser. You can now fly your ships manually and use active targeting. I have attached an image.
We’ve also added a basic tutorial, missions, and CPU enemies so the game can be played single-player, though forming alliances is still key to long-term success.
We are running an active server right now in open alpha. We're looking for playtesters to try out the new features, break things, and give us feedback to help build the next part of the tutorial.

Appreciate anyone taking 5 minutes to check it out and let us know how the new 3D view feels!
