HomePlanet - Short Tribute video

A short video , tribute to the un-released game 'HomePlanet' . It's an awesome Russian space sci-fi game , that has newtonian styled movement , and very good graphics for a 2001 year game .

The demo of it is released , with one patch . It's a good demo , buggy , but good . You can get it from fileplanet .

The game has resemblance to FreeSpace2 , Tarr Chronicles and Battlestar Galactica .

I used the Battlestar Galactica: Beyond the Red Line mod's music , so credit goes to them ( or Battlestar Galactica itself , if the music is by them ) .

Well , I hope you enjoy watching it , please rate and comment , and respect the copyright .

The funny thing is that we had an almost finished English version of this game. But our ex-publisher (Russobit-M) didn't find any publishers from the West.

That's pretty sad, i still think this game is one of the best space sims, but underrated for some reasons.

@xSunnuSx

You make it sound like you've worked on the game. Or am I assuming wrong?

What means "un-released" ??? I bought this game at mediamarkt years ago and had a lot of really good fun with it !! Did they sell me a demo????? I played throug a lot of missions, like 8 or 10, until got stuck in one I couldnt complete. And from were did you get this video? I dont recall seen it in the game. The game itself was pretty much similar to the ""babylon 5 I have found her"" but with much more better combat feeling.

Sorry about that. The description of the video got out of date after I got the game and was told of the truth. The game IS RELEASED. But it seems that HomePlanet is sold only in Russia, and anywhere else where people get it.

I made this video out of the game's trailer ( which you can see in my channel ). I cut it, changed the music, etc.

And "Babylon5: I have found her" is made on the same game engine. Though since I'm not a fan of Babylon5, I never played it. Only HomePlanet.

Oh thanks, that explains all. If only they could release the game with the expansion... this is one of best space combat sims I have played ever. Im glad you managed to enjoy it!

[ShadowGorrath]

Well, I have it with the expansion. But both are in russian. Though I heard that a fella is making an english patch for the game.

If you want to get the game with it's expansion, PM me.

Oh, and by the way, FreeSpace2 is considered to be the best space combat sim ever made. You should try it, if you haven't had the chance to do so yet. :)

[xSunnuSx]

Yep. I was a project leader :)

Any news on the English patch?:)

[LightGemini78]

Interesting. I already have freespace2 Open,had a lot of fun with it :) .Im waiting for  "beyond the red line" to come out,it looks really impressive. For now, "Orbiter" fills my needs for some space flying since I cant find another newtonian space sim.
