it needs new ships, and the pirates tend to spray, yet they always seem to hit. Also, the cities should have some differences instead of just color.

pirate captain: ok lads! we see a ship, fly around like an idiot and only shoot at him if you feel like it!
pirate: maybe if we all shot at once he wou-
pirate captian: NO! we MUST only shoot if we feel like it

I like the idea of this game, but it takes too long to travel between planets. There ought to be a 'warp' function that cuts out if there's trouble (pirates, asteroids ... asteroid pirates), but otherwise, it just takes a little fun out of the game. 3/5

To those having trouble starting the game, it is because your browser is zoomed in. Press ctrl+0 to reset your zoom level, and then refresh the page. You can then zoom in again after it loads and it'll work fine (ctrl++).

if your having trouble hitting enemies try holding SHIFT and click on a ship or asteroid then click the red dot and you never miss.press + if this helps

thank you for the equal trade thing (in the same place the buy and sell price are the same not you pay 10 but only get 5 back)

If you're going to redo an old game form the 90's ESCAPE VELOCITY, then try to make it a bit more fun and expansive. You might want to get yourself a Mac and go play Escape Velocity again.

I thought it was silly how when traveling to a planet, it slowly moves closer to you, yet the stars in the background zoom past you. They're much further away so they really should appear to barely move.

This game is way too slow.. Flying from one planet to another shouldn't take a full minute.. Gets rather boring pretty quick.

chagrin: 27 level 4 and 5 planets=useless. They are not involved with the two special quests and have no special quests of their own. Either delete these planets or add special quests for the planets.

i could not get into the second set of planets...I was doing the missions and trading had level 3 lasers, level 3 shields, and level 4 cargo bay...but everytime I attempted to go forward with missions, I would get wasted because of the stupid ships that would attack you between worlds. They are too hard to kill on level 1 with level 3 stuff, then the game is flawed and geared towards hardcore players....I give it a 7 of 10...it could be better.

Nothing really special about this game. The concept's been done a hundred times before, and many times a lot better than this. Needs a lot of things to make it even a good game: don't force us down a single upgrade path, give us some options; newer, bigger ships would be a plus; career paths; space stations; some kind of story right off the bat.

sorry but it had no storyline, music (music really helps to make a game entertaining), and it stinks that the colour of the laser doesn't change 3/10

A good game but you need options of ships. The bad graphics kinda fit the game. Some things mussing... I cant think what...

Its a nice game, but it is missing way too many elements to be great. Give us more options of ships; don't force us to make do with just one. Give us more weapons, a larger upgrade range for ship stats, etc. I like TXLimey's idea of a power/energy meter. I also like Purehope20's idea of becoming a pirate, or at least having career paths/classes. If you've ever played Project Diaspora, try to get some elements to mirror that game (For anyone that wants to know, PD is a downloaded F2P MMO space-trading game much like this one. It's pretty old, but its fun.) Just do anything you can to keep players interested. I didn't feel any drive to continue this game. It's fun at first, and its a great idea, but you really should put some more work into it. 3/5

you should add a thing for warfare when you get attacked you can dodge the enemy fire and make the planets more.. sociable not just one city you land on you know..... keep this one alive for good ideas
