| Kerbal Space Program | Squad;Take-Two Interactive (Squad) | 2015 | Tag notes. Accepting a contract that gives an advance does not even suggest to the player that using that money elsewhere is always unethical and also nearly always illegal. In fact, there is no enforcement; cancellation, completion, or failure of the contract and modification of reputation, science points, and/or funds are the only rules. This makes embezzlement very easy and useful with no consequences (should the contract be fulfilled on time using replacement funds) to the game or the conscience of the protagonist or the actual player (unless the player knows about real embezzlement. Many children and some adults do not, or won't recognize when they are doing it in the game). An extreme example of locationaldamage in the game would be having a only center connecting part of a rocket explode due to heat from reentry friction. The remaining two rocket parts could continue falling undamaged. They could each land safely if they each had antiquate parachutes or a functioning command module and fueled engine to land softly. The two parts could even reconnect into a sing craft if equipped with compatible docking ports (and if a skillful player could align them _during reentry_). | Linux | labelminimizeminimize |
| Space Pirates and Zombies | MinMax Games | 2011 | Un juego de acción rápida y directa de naves, con toda una galaxia por explorar. Destacable es lo fácil y rápido que es crear tus propias naves y la interfaz sencilla y eficaz que luce. Lo malo del juego es que progresa muy lentamente. Es un buen juego, especialmente en la parte de exploración y de combate. 6 de 10***At its core, Space Pirates and Zombies is an action based, skill oriented, top down space combat game. It’s similar to the ones we knew and loved in years past, but now using full physics simulation and modern graphics for those oh so pretty explosions. But as you dig deeper, SPAZ becomes much more. Instead of flying a single ship, you are in charge of an ever growing and evolving fleet, unlocking the rich tactical elements of SPAZ, all accessed at the touch of a button. Issue orders, change ships, apply fleet AI settings, all on the fly. At any moment the battle can change, and the Tactics Panel gives you the tools to make the battle turn in your favor. As a layer on top of the action and tactics, we have a detailed technology and levelup system akin to what you would expect from an RPG. Learn to build new ships by destroying your enemies. Explore the galaxy to find components, use your hard earned research points to unlock their potential, and then customize every aspect of your new fleet. Finally, there is the universe in which all this strife and adventure takes place. SPAZ features a persistent randomly generated Galaxy populated with story elements, factions, enemies, missions, items, to provide you with a unique experience each time you play. While you are struggling to survive, uncover the secret of an ever expanding Zombie infestation that spreads by establishing its own real time multi-tiered ecosystem. Key features: * 33 ships to research, build, outfit and pilot. * 70 unique components to discover and customize your fleet’s performance. * Totally physics based combat system. * Fight Zombie infestations, battling a full zombie ecosystem comprising four stages of un-life. * Explore a persistent randomly generated galaxy containing hundreds of star systems. * Freedom to explore the galaxy and take on challenges at your own pace. * Aid, flee, or exploit the warring factions in each star system. * The unique event system lets the player change the balance of power in any star system * Carefully spend your hard earned research points on hundreds of upgrades across 15 categories. | Windows | labelimagesubject |

| Star Control 3 | Accolade (Legend Entertainment) | 1996 | [b]keyboard[/b] / [b]mouse[/b] - combat is purely with keyboard, everything else is with mouse.***Has some crude support for running the game in Win95, but it's still DOS game.***Much like the Ultima series, the Star Control series is one of those retrogames that also has a loyal fan-base even today. With that said, most Star Control fans are about as enthusiastic about StarCon3 as Superman is about Kryptonite. [cjlee001] | MS-DOS | labelimageminimize |
| Star Control II | Accolade (Toys For Bob) | 1992 | The story mode is purely singleplayer, but the melee is playable by 1-2 human players.***I split SC2 and Ur-Quan Masters... no real reason other than [game=#162327]Ur-Quan Masters[/game] isn't the name of the original and the open source game doesn't have Star Control in its name, also UQM is ported to wider variety of systems, wasn't developed (the code, I mean, not the game content) and published by the same people, etc. etc.***Directly from the manual: The gameplay takes place 20 years after the great war of Star Control I. This time, your mission is to explore and liberate the various alien races and planets in the different star systems and take part in action filled space battles. Super Melee: A bonus game in which you take part in spaceship to spaceship combat with the choice of 28 different starships. Challenge a friend or the computer.***One of my favorite games. Good news everyone! You can play StarCon2 with slightly updated graphics (from the 3DO port) and remixed music on Windows (also, MacOS X and Linux)! Toys For Bob released the source code for StarCon2 and a dedicated team is working hard porting it to modern PCs. The project is opensource, that means you can download it for FREE! Did you hear that? FREE! Check here for details: [[link:http://sc2.sourceforge.net/]] [cjlee001] | MS-DOS | labelimageminimize |
