About Skylight
On the bridge of your flagship, a holographic projector shows your fleet floating in space, facing the enemy and awaiting your orders. Command nimble squadrons of fighters, specialized frigates, and giant capital ships as you orchestrate your forces toward victory.
The new Deluxe Edition includes new missions and ships, for a total of 15 unique ship types. Play through 36 Campaign missions, create your own in Skirmish mode, or play a Multiplayer match against your friends or a stranger. The multiplayer is turn-based, so you don't need to be online at the same time as your opponent. You can input your fleet's orders on your own time and come back to continue playing the match later!

When looking at the game I personally don't think it looks like a bad game necessarily, so long as its gameplay holds up... but it doesn't. One of the things I first noticed is how slow paced this game is. When I think of a space shooter or game where I command a fleet, I don't exactly think "fast paced action" but this isn't really either of those, just a holographic projection where you control what your fleet does. If you were to think about buying this game, it would probably only be due to its strategic gameplay. In my opinion though, the AI quite a bit gets in the way of that, as it seems to either be broken in some situations and will flat out not do what you tell it to do, or do extremely simple commands- one at a time usually. Even if the AI worked exactly as I expected and wanted it to however, there's still the issue of strategy. The main issue I have with it is that it's usually easy to exploit by just simply using the best ships - the bombers. The main capital ships I typically never had to worry about but if you just went with the best ships, you win. Really, it's that easy. Even if the game were more balanced however, you could, at least theoretically, just copy…7 found this helpful
RTS game you pick your ships and have them do battle, the ships have strengths, weaknesses and their own special powers so you can counter and crush your enemies or they'll crush you https://youtu.be/hiHwBEkLPkA3 found this helpful
I wish there was a Neutral recommendation for games on steam. As I do not really recommend nor not recommend this game. It has it's own charms and is interesting to see a game with offering for two different VR headsets as well as a non-VR version. Something I wish all VR games would offer as I do not have a VR headset so missing out on quite a few of these games that look really awesome. I get that without VR some of these would be bad or simplistic to play but honestly I would find quite a few of them more entertaining if it offered a traditional movement system compared to VR system only. This game in particular however does have some flaws in it for the non-VR version that I think overall I would have to say not recommend but the issues I have with the game may not be a problem at all for VR players. - Different Executables for Different VRs, ran into an issue where I ran the VR version because Steam stopped offering me a selection and it caused the game to run the VR version which caused other issues. - The Text for units and other descriptions in this game are extremely hard to read with camera placements on the non-VR version. Something that I believe may not be a problem i…3 found this helpful

Skylight is a focused and thoughtfully designed space tactics game that places strategic planning above spectacle, inviting players to command large-scale fleet engagements through deliberate, turn-based decision-making. Rather than overwhelming the player with micromanagement or complex simulations, the game frames each battle as a test of foresight and positioning, where success depends on anticipating enemy intent and committing to a plan before the fighting begins. The premise is simple but effective: you are a fleet commander directing multiple classes of ships across vast three-dimensional battlefields, watching your orders unfold in tense, simultaneous resolutions that reward smart prediction rather than reflexes. At the core of the experience is a turn-based system where both sides secretly issue commands, then observe the outcome as movements, attacks, and maneuvers play out at the same time. This structure gives Skylight a unique rhythm compared to traditional turn-based or real-time strategy games. Each turn feels weighty, as there is no opportunity to react mid-execution; once orders are locked in, you must live with the consequences. This design encourages careful ana…
