Not quite a "space game", but a Star Craft inspired game for C64(!), by the 8 Bit Guy:
Very interesting and inspiring video of how it was made (30 minutes):

I could feel awesomeness of retro games after watching this video. My first machine was Amiga 1200 if I remember correctly, I had around 6 years back then (1996).
This game looks really fun. ;d

A new episode, on his MS-DOS version! Will be a series on development.

Impressive progress, I must say. It's mostly on graphics, and tiles.
@nozmajner, if anything, I recommend the last 2 minutes, starting from 17:33, on the pixel artist that he's hired.
Gorgeous stuff.
