The first three nebula backgrounds are horrible.
The rest are alright.

Yep, I'm planning to change the first ones. They're not satisfying, IMHO.

I think just stick to two colours max. Any more and it starts looking like ****. At least pick them from similar ends of the colour spectrum if you use more.

Just reduce the amount of colors (pick like, two of the A/B/C/D/E/F at most) and stick to them, when you have blue/red/brown/green all in one it looks like a mess.

Basically any two colors look decent. (Even stuff like purple+orange), but with three it starts to get messy.

Even if the background is 360*360, and is supposed to work in conjuction with planet bitmaps (which you don't see there)?

But if planet bitmaps cover certain colors in each mission, how's that a problem?

Uh. Why have the bitmaps there if they're going to be covered?

Let's say that three missions take place in a given system. In each mission, different bitmaps cover part of the multi-colored backgrounds, thus resulting in less chaos and in more variety (it'd be as if there were three different backgrounds in those missions). You got what I mean?

It's just an illusion. The basic backgrounds are the same but the bitmaps cover different part in each mission. It's just an experiment to add more variety.

Just, keep in mind that having more than two or three background colours in a mission at the same time looks horrid.

and filling the entire screen with it looks pretty ugly and makes picking things at a distance out harder.

So, the Hatsheput is going to be used in Inferno? Not that that's a bad thing.

Waiting. The hardest game of all.
Made even harder by the fact that when they say they'll deliver, they deliver and it's always awesome.
