Young software companies also need a chance

I like the game, so I forgive also like five points. First, a few words about the graphics that appear here's the biggest criticism. I think the older graphics in the game very pretty to look at, there were no moments where would bother me something. The animations, particle effects and textures in my opinion, good 'very good.

'LGM' (Little Green Man) is a 15-strong troupe programmer (on the Starpoint Gemini page read) because the course is not a big graphics engine for use, it should be clear for reasons of cost.

From the point of probably a low-Bugdet is the game project, I find means music and sound effects - well done. In fact, I have to agree with the criticism that the repetitive announcements are sometime a bit annoying. Unfortunately, you can not stop this, because then the entire voice output shut off (also story dialogues).

The story I find beautiful, I'm a time-traveling fan (keyword 'Temporal gaps' or Stasi column) because of course that is very subjective I relate the story is not now in the recession.

In the game itself, there are 3 groups and several factions, here you can, similar to the X-Universe, earn by destroying the respective rivals pluses. Depending on what you have a reputation with the faction, the prices and attitudes change. I had several times been the Pirates 'dyed orange' no longer as enemies, but only.

Now I have the Game 'X' mentioned. Of course here, a comparison is difficult, or almost impossible because X has no equal. But it should be noted, however, that many aspects in the early stages of X (which I also have played) were flawed and the keyboard commands and options in the game were also manageable. Therefore, I think you should give a new game and a chance to develop.

And let's face it, for 'Casual Gamer' I think X is a number too large ;-)

Strangely white does not bother me the 2D space, on the contrary, I feel very at the Disney game 'Treasure Planet' recalls, which is similar in many ways and gave me earlier also huge fun.

Tactical finesse and a good preparation for the battle in this game is needed. I have often experienced that myself can destroy smaller ships. Luckily, you can save during the game flow and a jump drive is also available. Set officers and auftunen his ship goes.

Miss I really do only one thing: One can not build its own factories to build a lucrative business.

Summa Sumarum: I give this game four stars because it's fun and I think the smaller software is wrought also should give a chance to develop. I'm not a fanboy of paid to write here a positive recession.

- Repetitive announcements during the game
- Some sectors look alike (more variations should be possible)
- Destroyed ship although docked at base (under the shield)
- Unfortunately, many clone-faces, because there is only 1 base look
