A review of 2016's Halcyon 6: Starbase Commander. A retro-styled, Indie game featuring gameplay styles of base building, space sims, diplomacy and turn based RPG battles. Fans of Star Control 2 should give this a look.

While I found some artwork online, I don't have the Kickstarter art book that was given in a reward tier. How sad I did not know about this game back when it got funded, and thank goodness it managed just fine without me! Big thanks go to Jessica Thomas for providing some original, colorful drawings to fill in the gaps.

Thanks to all the above. This video was my come back special and it was a blast having you all with me. Yes, it's been a year since the last big video review. Thank you for waiting. I am a bit rusty at this. Feel free to leave some feedback if you found something in my style needs adjusting. Otherwise, plain old comments are welcome too! I'd like to know if you watched it all the way through.
