Deep Space Explorer
Tags for Deep Space Explorer
Description
You're a spaceship captain who has just infiltrated an alien base and hijacked one of their ships!
With some help from your trusty AI, explore the alien stations to try and find an automated hangar safe enough to dock your new spoil.
How to Play
Explained in-game.
Do *not* skip the tutorial if it's your first time playing. Also, you can type _help_ in-game for a list of commands.
Except for the main menu, all commands are text-based.
Developer Updates
Hey, people!
Just wanted to tell we just launched a
game, Last Continue:Customization Prototype.
http://www.kongregate.com/games/MatKrulli/last-continue-customization-prototype
Itโs not directly related to this one yet, but if the(tentatively) series, renamed from โDeep Spaceโ to โLast Continueโ does well, we might go back to the โExplorerโ and make a sequel for this one as well!
Actually, the way we have things planned, that gameโs plot might actually include this one in the future. The Explorer plotline would be occurring parallel to the Shooter(the main) one. Well, we donโt know if the game will succeed yet and anymore than that would be spoilers, so letโs leave it at that for now ^^

Was a bit disappointed when I got to the first hanger and, "The End".
I guess the description suggested it might be like that.
Enjoyed what little there was.

nice idea overall, but...where is the prompt? I'm using windows 7

It should be on the lower left of the screen, but the way I did it, it should be always able to listen to keystrokes, as long as the flash is on focus(and it shows a "click to focus" message if it isn't, so there's that).

Interesting concept, I think if you were to add more things to do - like more destination types, and maybe a way to upgrade slightly weaker ships - and then more ships (once you reach the hangar) the game could have more end-game depth
In terms of the game right now, just for faster commands maybe even shorter commands so that in a fight I could easily do:
p eng d
p wpns u
s x x
Quick like that - maybe list the shorter commands in the help text for clarity
Yup, there is a lot of room for improvement. The game as is right now is more of a proof of concept to see if there are people interested and whether it'd be a good idea to make a more elaborate one. ^^ And indeed, putting one-letter shortcuts is a good call. Might do that on the next build. Edit: Build 1.0.1 has some new shortcuts.

Uhm. One complaint which prevents me from even rating this game. The tutorial is longer than the actual game.
Yeah, the game is pretty short right now. Sorry if it was a disapointment, but I had to check it's viability before investing time on a bigger one. Still, it proved to be viable, so I'll probably make a full fledged one soon ^^

It needs to be balanced. If you put 5 into engine, 3 in O2, 5 into shields and weapons, one in repair and five in radar you can just power down your navigation when not using it and trade it with radar and you cant die what so ever. I didn't even take a point of damage the entire time i played
Yup. From what I've seen, the biggest problem is that the battle system is too simple, so if it was a little harder, it'd be nigh-impossible, but like this, there are a lot of combinations for insta-wins. Btw, the remake's development is going well, it should be done by late March ^^ I'll make a news post about it in a minute
