Mankind has finally learned how to explore the outer regions of space using wormhole technology, but Man is not alone in the Void. Two other races are also exploring and exploiting the cosmos for its resources and living space: the Mantis, an insect-like race whose technology relies on large numbers of quick fleets, and the Celaerans, beings of energy cursed by their creators to spend their lives in strange, armored canisters. Expand your fleet, explore your universe, and crush your opponents!

There is a reference to CQFixPatch_AllinOne_1.2, but every mirror I download it from indicates something is wrong with it (trojan), so unless someone (preferably GoG) can confirm it doesn't mess up my system, that file ain't gonna be installed any time soon...
A real gem from back in the days Ubi was a game company. While the map is of limited size, the gameplay and coding are quite superior. You do want to own this, especially at the sale price.
I was never a fan of the Homeworld games. The whole 3rd dimension only made me disoriented and I could never suss anything out. I LOVE the idea of fleet combat though so I picked this up when I heard it described as "2D Homeworld".
It technically is. But there are a whole lot of rough edges that drag it down.
-It's not really "space". It's a standard 2D RTS map with a black background instead of a ground. It even has impassable terrain like "anti matter ribbons" instead of rivers. To me, it feels more like a reskinned version of any standard late 90s RTS than a fleet game.
-The unit selection and UI display is very shoddy. You can drag select units, but there is no visual indicator to show which units you have selected. It will show their silhouettes in the corner like Starcraft, but there are no selection boxes or health bars on the actual selected units. You're going to be constantly messing up as units you thought you had selected don't respond.
-The graphics are extremely primitive, even for the time. It's from 2001 but looks like the mid to late 90s. Homeworld came out 2 years earlier and visually blows the game away. Even 1998's original Starcraft and 1997's Total Annihilation have more detailed graphics. It even gets in the way of gameplay since there's no visual indication if units are being hit other than looking at the silhouettes in the corner; shots just disappear and you have shift your glance to the corner to see who's getting hit.
-You have a limited number of build slots which determine which units you can build, and half the buildings can't be sold to make more room and change your army. This limits strategy.
In the end, there's not much differentiating this from the dozens of other middle of the road late 90s (which it feels like) RTS games. It promises space battles but feels like ground combat. There are worse games and if you're fine with "not really" space combat then it's worth a look for $5.
I played it back in the day, and I still think it's nice. The story isn't the most brilliant, but entertaining, the gameplay is cool, and I liked the overall atmosphere :)
