Eliot LashMy physical rewards for #FreeStars: #ChildrenOfInfinity Kickstarter arrived today! (Direct sequel to #StarControl2.) It was a blast reading the spoiler-free mission brief in the lorebook, and I'm excited for the game to hopefully come out later this year!
kurtshStar Control 2... my favorite game in the early 90s. At UCLA, I had college football players begging me to play it on my computer.

Paul FenwickHalf-expecting our remaining individuals to invent some kind of Ur-Quan Excruciator device to prevent/reverse The Joining.
Got myself a used #POWKIDDY #RGB30 #RK3566 #RetroHandheld as a VERY belated birthday gift for myself! People seem to largely get this type of device for retro emulation but I am just as excited for #portmaster and #pico8 in a handheld form factor!

villeseppI finally got around to 3D modeling 3 new #starcontrol2 ships: Yehat Terminator, Arilou Skiff and Syreen Penetrator. I used #blender3d
6 Star Control Ships in 3D (concept)
I put together another quick #lowpoly version of a #starcontrol2 ship that looks like it came straight from early '90s gaming hardware. I edited the original Super-Melee GUI a bit so the ship could have more room to "breathe". Made in #blender
Christin WhiteOne of my partnerβs favorite games is #StarControl2, particularly the open-source fork. I finally decided to give it a try and weβre playing together. So far itβs delightful and surprisingly modern in narrative if a bit dated on mechanics. I can definitely see the influence it had on Mass Effect, No Manβs Sky and choice-driven RPGs in general.
I canβt help but wonder if Craig Alanson played it too, it reminds me a ton of Expeditionary Force, one of my favorite recent sci-fi book series. The client species hierarchy and the wacky aliens in particular.
The Steam version is free and easy to run on modern systems (at least Mac).
Mopsi DickBin gerade schockverliebt in "The Ur-Quan Masters", das open source-Remake von Star Control 2. So coole bΓΆse Aliens, so eine hΓΌbsche SF-Geschichte, so ein unterhaltsamer Mix aus Adventure, Exploration, Arcade-Kampf und Rohstoffgrabben/Schiffbau.
