Galaxy in Turmoil video shows off Nak-Thi map

Galaxy in Turmoil, you'll remember, is the fan-made Star Wars: Battlefront that—thanks to the intervention of lawyers—now has nothing to do with Star Wars, meaning it's now set it's own sci-fi universe. It's getting a demo next year, but ahead of that, maybe you fancy a quick look at one of its maps?

As in, a very quick look, preceded by some backstory revealing that the Nak-Thi map mixes wintry snow with a big old volcano—an interesting combination, I'm sure you'll agree. There's also a station present, and some ships passing over it; OK, so it's a bit of a teasing video, but it's our first proper look at GIT (I do love that acronym) since it ditched the Star Wars connection, and I'm pleased to report that, visually, it looks quite nice.

Tom loves exploring in games, whether it’s going the wrong way in a platformer or burgling an apartment in Deus Ex. His favourite game worlds—Stalker, Dark Souls, Thief—have an atmosphere you could wallop with a blackjack. He enjoys horror, adventure, puzzle games and RPGs, and played the Japanese version of Final Fantasy VIII with a translated script he printed off from the internet. Tom has been writing about free games for PC Gamer since 2012. If he were packing for a desert island, he’d take his giant Columbo boxset and a laptop stuffed with PuzzleScript games.
