Quasar Forge is a ship-building space combat game for the ZX Spectrum Next, inspired by the open source 'Event Horizon' by Pavel Zinchenko. The game uses 320x256 256-colour graphics in Layer 2 and is written in Z80N assembly.
Players start at the edge of a spiral galaxy consisting of 35 sectors arranged in four rings. Each sector contains nine areas, with a boss at the center. Defeating the boss conquers the sector and unlocks adjacent sectors. Progressing inward, players face escalating opposition: corvettes, frigates, destroyers, cruisers, and battleships, leading to the final confrontation with the OVERLORD battle station.
Ships defeated in battle drop credits and components. Salvaged wrecks can be added to a fleet of up to eight ships. In the hangar, players configure their ships cell by cell, fitting weapons, armor, reactors, devices, and drives. Components can be combined to form higher-grade equipment. Planets held by the player offer raiding opportunities via scrolling shooter levels, granting credits and blueprints for advanced parts manufacturing.
'Quasar Forge' incorporates gameplay features such as customizable ship-building, strategic sector progression, salvaging, equipment upgrading, and a mix of top-down galactic exploration with scrolling shooter sequences.
