Re: Seedship, single player text based space exploration browser game
Glad people like this one, I did think it was a cool idea.
I occasionally have a look around google for new text browser games and the like, it's how in the past I stumbled upon several games. I decided to look for a space colonization game in hopes of something different from the usual "minimax and clobber the other player" and this one came up.
According to his patreon page the developer is working on a game based partly on the lonewolf books (the ones on project.aon), so we'll probably get those rpg skills etc next time around.
From a mechanical perspective it might have been nice if you got a little score for holding on longer thus making the balance more complicated, like say earth had been invaded by some nasty aliens and the further across the galaxy you got from them before starting your colony, the better your colonists chances of remaining undetected by them so you got a score multiplyer (actually if I can contact the develope r I might even suggest that one).
Then again seeing what sorts of planets you come up with and the final description is cool, although thus far I've only seen oppressive theocracy and society based on freedom and equal rights, it'd be sort of nicer if you could have other odder varients in culture too, after all who knows what sort of society people might form on an alien planet.
