Shallow Space is a 3D Real Time Strategy game inspired by Nexus: The Jupiter incident and Homeworld. Shallow Space focuses on organised mass RTS space combat in a fully 3D environment. Ships in Shallow Space are nearly always grouped into Flotillas and Wings, and orders issued to these structures cascade to the subordinate members. Rather than stressing out clicking on the units or dragging selection boxes during the heat of battle, standing orders are issued in advance leaving you to zoom around, activating abilities and arranging support and reinforcements. Should the tide turn in battle traditional control is still available.

Assuming the side things are engine nozzles:
Does the flight deck go the entire length of the ship, or is it just a rear-thingy?
Also, launch tubes, or do small craft, whatever they are, have to fly off the deck?

There is a similar egress point at the front of the craft, ingress is at the rear as you can see by the arrow. The deck spans the lenght of the ship with the hangar in the middle.

Not sure what you mean by this? The Corvettes don't touch the 'runway' but taxi to the launch point and egress at full thrust clearing the runaway as quickly as possible.
Ah, interesting. So you can't do a full fly-through. Though, in space, that probably isn't much of a factor.
Ah, so no boosting off the ship, only launching their own power. Works either way.
in space they have alot of their own power to launch with. would be kinda cool them being launched and moving at faster speeds for a short period of time allowing them to be more agile and harder to hit and then after a certain time they go to normal their own power speeds with regular agility and regular hitchance.
Would this be an unarmed carrier or would it have its own defensive flak emplacements?
It has 2 XL guns and 2 L guns, the L guns can be fitted for 'AA'
