The Precursors Interview, Part Two

RPG Vault has put up the second part of their The Precursors interview with Deep Shadows' Dmitry Lysenko.
Jonric: How much of the game involves spaceships? Can the hero obtain various types? To what extent can they be modified?

Dmitry Lysenko: Since space is an integral part of the gameplay, the spaceships are certainly important. Our hero has access only to his spaceship, which can be upgraded according to player's taste. It belongs to a medium class, and requires certain tactics, especially at the beginning. You shouldn't attack hostile cruisers or even corvettes without special equipment. After getting more skills, installing improved armor, a better engine, power shields and arming your fighter, you'll be able to take on big enemy spaceships.

In space you'll find many hostile or friendly spaceships. Each faction has its distinctive fleet. The vessels can be divided into various classes determined by such characteristics as size, function, etc.
