Has anybody encountered any enemies besides the green blobs and the purple worms? Building an awesome spaceship is less amazing if you don't have anything awesome to kill with it.

Looks suspiciously similar to blockade runner.

On normal internet forums, threads devolve from content into trolling. On Bay12, it's the other way around.

Hey, I can't fit through 2x1 'doorways' and whenever I'm near an object, it gives me the option to plant my boots on it. How do I synchronize with an object, so I can, say, go through a door?
The floor-boot isn't to set you on the object, it means that if the object moves then you'll move with it.  If the object is too small or you're too far away, then when your ship starts moving it'll leave you behind.

Doors pretty much have to be 2x2 to work it seems, you can rotate with z and x but it doesn't seem to work very well.

So far I've not encountered any space enemies, been struggling to get a ship working.  Unlike many other cube-games, these can rotate.  If you place your engines in the center of mass of a ship, then it pushes it to the side.  If you put the engines to one side, then it will actually rotate the ship and turn it a different direction.  So, ship construction can be a little tricky to balance the weight and positions of engines.

So after mucking about for a few games I think I would like this more than minecraft, sad that its an orphan game though. Perhaps we could resurrect this if it got enough attention?

@girlinhat: that's one of the things i like about this particular project. just some of the details that let you know that some effort was put into it.

@zecro: some people are already emailing the creator to see if they'll continue developing it.

*edit*
and apparently there's been a response!

"A Response"?  Like, getting back to work, or like, "fuck you I hate making this game"?

I hope that it's a good response. The game would be much better with ship-to-ship combat. Or any kind of ship combat. Blowing up innocent asteroids isn't very satisfying.

God, this is SUCH a terrible name for a game though. :(

I would never be able to convince people to play this with me.

Corneroids doesn't sound like a venereal disease at least.

Instead it just sounds like some really sharp-sided hemorrhoids.  Not sure which is worse...

Just tried is out, it really has potential.

Right now it is a bit boring, but in the future I can see it being amazing.

Every dwarf, every dwarven man, women, and child, that comes to our forts will die there; it's truly sad when you think about it. And we ask our selves, why? Why do we push forward, knowing this fate, that we are destined for failure? Because, this game grasps the concept of mortality. Some games you can never lose, but we all stop eventually, causing a 'death' to those game's 'worlds'. Dwarf Fortress gives us a definite end, knowing that we will leave that world eventually, and move on to more.
