Falling Frontier reveals new ship and mechanics in first update of 2023

A space barge has no business looking this good, and it's all thanks to the space RTS game’s new full-time artist

February 24, 2023 - Hooded Horse is excited to share the latest developments for Falling Frontier, the highly anticipated space RTS game from Stutter Fox Studios. Not only has the team expanded to bring on a full-time artist, but that artist has already hit the ground running with the first in a new wave of ship designs. Say hello to the Sukula-class barge:
 


The variant in this unreasonably gorgeous trailer is a mining barge, and will be used as part of the game’s resource collection mechanics, but other versions of the Sukula-class will be present in the game serving other logistical functions.

This ship was designed by Aleksandre Lortkipanidze, Stutter Fox Studios’ new full-time artist, and will be the first of many new and revised ship models that will be deployed in the final build. You can see examples of Lortkipanidze's past work on his
portfolio. The next ship the Falling Frontier team will be working on is the Hano-class destroyer that’s featured in past videos.

Other than reminding everyone how pretty Falling Frontier is, this latest trailer highlights some other developments. The UI has undergone revisions and new mechanics have been added in the form of a tactical waypoint system, obstacle avoidance, and collisions. The studio will have more ship models to reveal in the coming months.

Falling Frontier will release in early access for PC via Steam,
GOG, and the Epic Games Store. A press kit is available.
