Those things breed like rabbits! Still, easy come, easy go: simply charge your 50 superfluous missile trucks into the nearest line of energy domes, and watch as they, the enemy, and everybody we have ever loved disintegrates in about 20 seconds.</p> <p>Shattered Sun does reward micromanagement &ndash; "every projectile is simulated", the devs proclaim, which means you can dance your tanks away from incoming shells &ndash; and also encourages resource efficiency, with a "flow-based economy" that hinges on access to generators and alloy extraction sites. But going by my hour with the demo, it more immediately rewards the act of scooping together a continent-sized deathball and rolling it through the nearest pocket of red on your map.</p> <p><a href="https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/ive-yet-to-smash-open-a-dyson-sphere-in-sci-fi-rts-sanctuary-shattered-space-but-im-enjoying-its-take-on-supreme-commander">Read more</a></p>
