But I'm actually most excited by its Galaxy Map Editor because it enables me to make the game I've always wanted to play: a fast-paced, team-oriented tactical RTS. The scripting language will impose limitations, but I'm happy to compromise for access to the physics, matchmaking, and general polish.
Will anyone else be hacking on the Galaxy Editor? Leave a comment or get in touch @jayruy twitter, we can form a mailing list if there is demand.
Also happy to share/discuss my design document: the quick pitch is a cross between StarCraft 3v3, WoW EoTS, and Team Fortress Capture/Hold. It is nothing like DoTA.
