Thanx for the mention in the end and the link in the description! My game will try to lower the learning curve and be beginner friendly. Love that you used the actual soundtrack for backing. I can see you really went deep into the OG game, I think you know slightly more than I do now. Eg. never thought about disrupting the trade of certain commodities and only selling it from my own hangar.
Nah mate. Don't even attempt to convince me that it a moon of Saturn. Great vid, great review as well. But you'd be hard-pressed to convince us that it is not Jupiter's 80th moon. Where is your evidence mate?
98 was a great year for space flight sims probably still got the disk somewhere, I remember alternating betweet this Xenocracy and a few others good times cheers for the review. FMV's make me nostalgic.
Maan this was one of those clunky, ugly, early 90s cheesefests that just ate the hours up. It always came across as that yappy underdog to the big names at the time. It could have been much more, but the stuff the devs did to make it seem like a lived in world really made it immersive and atmospheric. I don't usually condone remakes, but something like this in 2022 by a dedicated indie dev team would be something that would light a little spark of hope in my cold dead heart.
this game was so nostalgic for me to replay, I played it back when I was a kid and wasn't smart enough to complete it. It sucks but it has such charm. It really left an impact on my 6 year old brain
I've had a terrible time getting it to run. Still haven't made it run natively in windows 7, but I'm running it under wine in linux mint. The graphics were glitched, and when I finally got the settings right to un-glitch the color palettes, I was left wondering if the game was really designed to look the way it does. That was the main reason I looked up reviews. I saw the cropped control panel in the hangar menu and the terrible texture work on ships and signs. I thought, "Is it really supposed to look like this?" Thanks for your help. Still glad I bought the game so I can thoroughly enjoy Kati Williamson videos *eggplant emoji* and listen to some good music that I selected from the soundtrack. Might actually try to play the game.
My brain is flooded with insane levels of useless gaming knowledge but you still manage to showcase ones I've never heard of. Are the games on zoom platform patched up for modern systems like gog? If so I'll have to check it out.
