MOTHERSHIP

This game is from the old Ludum Dare platform. You can try viewing the original page on Web Archive
(may not load correctly).
This is a simulation/management game where you rebuild your ship and explore a procedurally generated galaxy for resources.

In this prototype, the objective is to research the ancient artifact to its completion (100%) and keep the oxygen and carbon levels above 0. You cannot interact with the crew screen or reassign roles, and the ship building is purely cosmetic at the moment.

There is a small chance to lose crew members or finding new ones when harvesting any planet.

This entry was inspired by Dwarf Fortress, EVE Online, Aurora and Prison Architect.
