All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

Looks really interesting.
Thanks for the heads-up.

I am kinda reminded of those old Star Trek Ship Creator games (if anyone here remembers them).

Im not clear if its a ship boarding game or a ship to ship game with a boarding element.
Toonces - Don't ask me, I just close my eyes and take it.

Gus - I use sweatpants with flannel shorts to soak up my crotch sweat.

Banzai Cat - There is no "partial credit" in grammar. Like anal sex. It's either in, or it's not.

Mirth - We learned long ago that they key isn't to outrun Star, it's to outrun Gus.

Martok - I don't know if it's possible to have an "anti-boner"...but I now have one.

Gus - Celery is vile and has no reason to exist. Like underwear on Star.

I got the impression it was an Trader-style game, like the Port Royale series since their site mentioned that as a focus.


... and nice Avatar Starfury.  :D

Looks like a trading/combat type game combined with a much more fleshed out FTL.

I'm certainly interested.

thanks Nef!

a starship design game sounds dicey to me.
to many variables and ship types that are universe specific.

...arise dead thread.

So it seems Starship Corporation has been early access released on Steam.

Looks interesting...

Here's a ship design vid.  Game play also includes Crew and AI Tactics, Ship Building, and Trading.

I sometimes wonder if there's any interesting game that he doesn't have... :D

There's a big difference between owning and having time to play. 

Plus, wait until his daughter discovers shoe and clothes shopping, that'll cut into his game purchases, a little ;)

Nah, that's when you send Mom out for a little daughter/mommy time. I'm always recruiting my daughters in law to go shopping with my wife  8)

I'm really intrigued by this -- looks like it has the potential to be something really special -- although a little wary at jumping in at the Alpha stage. (Only $18, I know.)
