Here's a new video from Gratuitous Space Battles 2, using pre-alpha gameplay footage to show battle effects in the game. Here's an accompanying description which touches on the game's throwback business model: "GSB2 is a space strategy game that has 'asynchronous battles', so people can design a fleet of custom ships, upload them, and let the rest of the internet attempt to crush them (or be crushed). The game uses the 'pay to buy it' model that was so popular on earth in the old days."
