You are the captain of a futuristic interstellar ark that quite honestly, left space-dock months too early.
Will you patch up your ship and survive the long journey between worlds to finish the space gate you are tasked to build, or will your ship succumb to the perils of interstellar space?
Hope you enjoy my FTL and Oregon Trail hybrid! I myself enjoyed this LD a lot, hope to check out your entries soon!
MAIN TIP: USE THE BUTTONS IN THE BOTTOM TO EXPAND YOUR SHIP!
HINTS:
- You will need to produce fuel and food! Expand your ship to survive!
- Click 'engage' to warp to the next point. Crewmembers build sections, age and eat during each step! Warning: Your ship will not stop until a warp point has been reached, unless you are out of fuel.
- Placed ship sections do not function until constructed by the crew.
- Finished sections randomly generate food, fuel and other pickups.
- Bigger crew means faster building! Bunks increase your chances of births! Watch your food though!
- Plan ahead, if the distance between warp points on the route is long, your ship will not stop for a while. You can only build and scan at warp points, but your crew will build and your ark will produce and consume resources each step of the way!
- Don't place too many sections at once, your crew might build the things you don't need first.
- Crewmembers age. Additional drives will cause long warp paths to take less time! Did you know Biogel can revitalize the elderly?
- Brainslugs have benefits!
- Don't give up when you run out of fuel, scan around for a bit, you might get lucky!
