<section id="about">
<h2>About <a class="self" href="#about">&sect;</a></h2>
<p><strong>Starshatter</strong> (2004) and <strong>Starshatter: The Gathering Storm</strong> (2006) were military space
combat simulators in distant future. They allowed players to command all kind of ship sizes and all kind of ship groups
putting the players anywhere in the regular military chain of command.
<p>In 2011 the author, John DiCamillo, released game's source code under the 3-Clause BSD License.
<p><strong>Starshatter: The Open Source Project</strong> is a legacy of this series and intends to maintain, polish, and
extend the game. Just like before, the goal is to let the player experience the ultimate space combat, from planet
surface to interstellar space, from piloting the smallest ships to commanding entire armadas.
