I know what you're thinking...the hero ship was a side profile view & these ships seem to be top down. Jonathan's only response...yes. Quick Game Dev Tip for you boys & girls. Know what type of camera you are going to use in your game, before you commission artwork. Know whether you're going to have fire coming out of your spaceships before you start prototyping the art. Know whether you want to have the ships go over enemy terrain, or if the whole thing will be in space. Don't do what a LOT of first time game developers do & set out to make a game you don't have the skills, budget or equipment to do.  

These were Jonathan's attempts at artwork. Yes it was made with Microsoft paint. Yes he did show this artwork off proudly at one point. Don't laugh, so hard there's more. If you are a beginning game developers & you aren't good at graphic design, put aside a budget for a graphic artist. Trust us on this.
