Starsector - RT 2D indie space goodness

[AgentFransis]

Yes it gets boring in the late game. Some mods give you more challenge. Colonies are boring - don't have to build 'em. Game is great fun otherwise. If you get bored install a new mod and start again.

Looks like the release is coming soon.

patch notes

...
I mean its sign that patch will be here sooner than later but on the other hand its like seeing a good food behind the glass when you are hungry and Alex can take these patch notes and put them in his private dark place.

Why such reaction lol? Can someone explain?
Not familiar with SS backstage.

This is because he releases the patch notes before the release of the patch itself. You have the list of "all the things that the supposed new version will have" without us knowing when that version will exist in practice. The current version is 0.9.1a AFAIK.

 

[Fenix]

lol what a magician!

 

[LizardWizard]

The current version is 0.9.1a AFAIK.

Which was released almost 2 years ago

 

[tindrli]

so its still not released

 

[Sarissofoi]

Nope.
Its like dangling the carrot on the stick before donkey nose. Its just you are the donkey now.

 

[tindrli]

so many memories with this one

 

[HeatEXTEND]

Nope.
Its just you are the donkey now.

A donkey that's playing Starsector

 

[Tyranicon]

Well this is a blast from the past. Is it still in Alpha stage or has it moved on?

 

[anvi]

I forgot what this game is?

 

[tindrli]

I forgot what this game is?

then its not for you

 

[Perkel]

Welp, now scavenging increases detection radius by 1000 for a brief while. Which means doing REDACTED systems will be much much much much much much much much much much much much harder without actual combat ready fleet.

 

[razvedchiki]

The patch notes mentioned a new end game threat, will this be in the new version?

 

[Joseph Stalin]

I'm intentionally not touching the game until it is feature complete. Don't want to spoil myself before getting the full package.

not yet. It is for later patches.

Make sure to store your phylactery well. You don't want a poorly timed asteroid impact removing your chance of seeing the release of the 1.0.

Well he takes his time but with latest patch there is some good progress. Meanwhile mods are churning like mad. Game reminds me a lot of Avorion in sense that it takes forever to update but modding community in that time makes wonders.

They really should go on Steam and GoG. I've been looking for such a game nearly for twenty years. Discovered some good games in the process like Distant Worlds and some games I couldn't get into like Star Traders. I found out about Starsector merely by chance. KeighnMcDeath posted a video of some youtuber and out of boredom I decided to watch his other videos.
Also additional payment options would be nice.
