Wings Of Saint Nazaire Demo Updated, Looking As Beautiful As Ever

Wings Of Saint Nazaire is one of the most beautiful space shooting experiences I've had in years and the latest updates give some subtle improvements.

The game is just damned gorgeous and I really cannot wait to see what they do with it when they put some more time into it. I had a few mouse issues with the ship suddenly wanting to go down and I struggled to get it to fly back up again, but apart from that it's still awesome.

The graphics and music in it are just fantastic and I really hope it's a game that actually goes somewhere. I am a massive fan of Freespace 2 and this reminds me of it a lot.

Mouse issues in a game built on Unity? YouGottaBeKiddingMe... Are there any 3D games built on Unity *without* mouse issues?

Looks good, I don't really like the pixelated design, but I undersand the "retro" look.
I had mouse issues, like with every single Unity game out there, excepted SuperHot.

But I would have loved a fully newtonian game, like Evochron Mercenary (not on Linux, sadly).

Not only a Freespace this game reminds but Homeworld as well. I'm personaly a huge fan both of them. So I'm definitely gonna take a look at this game and hope be useful tester.
