Maybe add a hotkey for turning off the mouse and/or pausing? It's impossible to pause OR turn the mouse off mid-fight without moving your ship.

Oh. It's BotD. My heart. This is my baby right here. Played it 2 years ago and it is still one of my ultimate favourites. I... I might replay the whole beautiful thing again.

Just completed the game, and i found out why the story is...deep, thoughtful and heartbreaking. I hope the sequel is out. Kudos to dev and the team who made this! Along with other best games of 2011!

Just a time guideline if you want all of the badges. If you read the dialog, it will probably take you a few hours to get the 2nd badge. I'm still working on the 3rd.

I played this game along time ago, and now saw it's the BotD so I just had to relive this masterpiece of a flash game... Seriously one of the best games on this site. Do yourself a favor and play this game when you have a lot of free time and also don't skip any of the cut scenes! Just look at all the comments wishing for a sequel... when a game touches your soul, either through story telling, gameplay, music, or all of the above it truly deserves to be a work of art. And this is whole heartily a work of art.

Someone really should record the order of cafe for true ending... because I'm dumb. :( Srs, though, I've tried it 6 times with the walkthrough and I still haven't done it. :D Alternatively, if you get all the character-specific endings, you can access the true ending in the extras.

I feel bad that I have only come across this game on Kong after so many years of gaming. This is easily one of the best flash games I have played. Somewhat reminds me of Sony and other great flash games out there. I haven't even finished the game yet but man it just feels great already. Anyone who just skips the dialogues are missing out big time. 5/5!!!

Came for the badge, stayed non-stop until the end of the game for the sublime storytelling and characters - thanks so much for this amazing game xdanond

Now and again, after all these years, I still close my eyes and play 'Incarnadine' from the OST when I need some escapism, to soothe me, and to drown out aggravating noises. It takes me back to the feel of this game, and even without this game as context it's an incredibly beautiful piece of music. I already commented on the game itself in 2011, but I just wanted to add the appreciation I still have for it and the joy/bittersweet sadness it brings. Wishing you all the best with the future, whatever it may be and bring.

Excuse my French, but jeez, that Deuce is an asshole. Alright, maybe he isn't THAT bad, but if this IS going to turn into a dating sim I'm gonna feel bad about choosing someone too sweet with this kind of protagonist.

I'm surprised that this is a BOTD and in the Kong Royale thing. I loved it the very first time I ever played it but I figured it was to obscure a game to get chosen.

hey so if im not mistaken this game will up for that battle kongroyale thing in the next tier. Anyone else going to vote the hell out of it?

Just beat the game. I loved the choice and alternate cutscenes! I chose the one about Deadeye, but I'm sure all the other options are just as satisfying. Iblis is a bitch, though. Amazing game, and certainly sequel/Steam release material!

This game rules! 5/5! The story is just great, the gameplay is simple and fun, and I love hearing what people have to say - and for people that don't, it's good that you can skip it as well. Please make a sequel, and not in Flash - make it and put it on the Ubuntu Software Center, make it for Windows, and for Mac. I would suggest Unity3D, but that doesn't run on Linux. Good job!

I am actually replaying this game because it is so fun and the story is amazing! :D This is one of the few games I have played that actually made me want to replay it after beating it a year ago. XD I also can't stop whistling that theme that plays during the stages. XD

This game, while lacking a bit in actual game, has an incredible story that I've honestly never forgotten since I first played this FLASH GAME a few years ago. Now, whenever I hear soft, saddish piano music in a game, I start thinking furiously "What's that game called? Starfish? RPG Shooter something?"
Please make a sequel, I would pay for it!

I connected with every character freaking instantly, except Mare, because he/she hasn't actually said anything yet... The Captain is a wise but friendly old woman whose intuitive predictions are almost always spot on. Deuce is a protective warrior who would sacrifice himself for the good of the whole. Deadeye is (so far) a mechanical genius whose brain has not much room for social skills because of all the weapon systems swirling around in her mind. Johnny is the opposite, knowing people extremely well, but I haven't spoken to him enough to really know him.

And Ginny? One of my two favorite characters from Firefly, obviously! Freaking LOVE that mechanic! So happy, even if she does have some guilt from her past surface life. Who have I missed... Oh, Swig. Besides the ship's drunk and one of the biggest sources of moral support for Deuce, I haven't really gotten much of his character. Oh, he is fairly wise at times and can understand people and their intentions pretty well though. And that is all I have gained just from playing through the tutorial and Skies of Syd! I haven't even played any of the other levels yet.
