    Default Homeworld *W.I.P.*

    I know it is an old game, but as soon as I've seen this picture of the Mothership, I thought: "What a great box it could do". So here it is. It is not over yet, but the Mothership and the spaceship in ruins on the bottom back (the "Khar-Toba") are at a good position. I will add screenshots to the box soon.

    Here you go, another version. Comments, suggestions (especially for the screenshots and their positions), typo corrections are welcome!

    Looking good, though I would recommend making the tagline on the back larger and adding more color to it, other than that it looks pretty good

    This.
    It's looking quite bland ATM.

    More text on the back, and the Homeworld logo is now in blue. I do not want to add more colours because it is a tribute to the game and its black and white cinematics. It was pretty unusual in 1999. But it pays off, and it was memorable. The black and white cinematics was back in 2003 with Homeworld 2.

    You can watch an example of the Introduction Cutscene here on Youtube.

    The ship on the front, is the Mothership, with a very unusual form and style for a ship back in 1999. It was your principal ship, the one you cannot lose.

    Everything was unusual with this game: full 3D RTS (yes, full 3D combats and formations), black and white cutscenes, music, story, level of difficulty. But it was a hit.
