About the game

The game is mainly based on ELITE from the C64 era. Besides that, M.U.L.E. plays a crucial role. The 2D space battles take place in or near asteroid fields and respect physics. You are not a trader but a shipper. At auctions you get shipments by making the cheapest offer for transport.

The game is finished. Nevertheless, changes may occur, for example, if a bug is discovered.

Hey, that's great! For us small indie developers, something like this is invaluable.

I noticed that a few things don't work as I expected (as usual).

You probably assumed that a tutorial would introduce you to the game. There is a video guide in place of a tutorial, but you can only find that outside of the game, more specifically in the instructions.

You did consult a help page here and there, but sometimes not. Especially with the shipments, this was a hindrance because you thought you had to buy them.

I will put a link to the video tutorial directly in the game, that is, in the main menu. Best I call it also video tutorial.

Furthermore, I noticed that browser games apparently can't be streamed or recorded that well. Anyway, the video is jerky especially when flying in space.

I will provide a version to download and install besides the browser version.

If you ever get a chance to play again, I would be very interested to hear how the shipment auctions are going.

Thanks so far anyway!
