A discovery is about to turn the culture of Kharak upside down. The
people, Kushan, are not native to Kharak at all. The discovery of the
Guidestone is the ultimate proof that Kushan had came from another
solar system, far away. And it's time to go home. The Mothership
project united the world. Part base, part construction yard, the
Mothership is capable of everything, as you never know what you will
find in the void...
Homeworld is a 3D strategy game where you control a mothership and a
fleet as you harvest resources, conduct research, and build up your
fleet that can vary from small, fast, and nimble scouts to lumbering
heavy cruisers. Move your camera in full 3D (up/down/around) and issue
full 3D movement orders. Specify 3D formations for your ships, employ
cloaked vessels to ambush enemy or employ salvage vessels to capture
enemy ships, or defend against them with prox sensors and mines. There
is a 17-mission single player campaign, or you can play online in true
internet multi-player.
Notes:
These are unofficial Intel/PPC OS X Leopard+ ports of the "Homeworld
SDL" OpenSource project.
