Worthplaying writes: "Shattered Suns puts players in control of a fleet of space ships and space stations. Game play takes place in a solar system with one star, various planets orbiting the star, and moons orbiting the planets. Space stations fill orbital slots around planets and moons, serving to consolidate control over territory. Space ships gather resources from planets and moons, form supply lines between space stations, build new space stations, and--of course--blow each other out of the sky in fully three-dimensional space battles.
According to representatives at Clear Crown Studios, input from beta testers is vitally important to the company. Input from beta testers during the first beta test for Shattered Suns in September of 2007 prompted the company to move the original release date into 2008 so that the company would have time to add a variety of new features the beta testers had requested. New features inspired by beta testers included a greater variety of weapon customization options and the introduction of supply lines to the game's economic challenges."
