The last part of Cataclysm has been uploaded. The story of Boris the Blade is over.

I shall see You in Prospector!

[CognitiveDissonance]

I'm going to spend some time watching those properly. I look forward to it!

[Stworca]

Prospector adventures begin now. I believe the image I have chosen is fitting perfectly.

SS Loinclothgrad begins its crusade against every inhabited planet in the multiverse, bringing doom to each and every planet they visit.
Dick Mountainjoy, Ronny Rection, Boris the Blade, Timmy Tripod and Nick the Stick put together on one ship.

Video 1 is up! Woo!

[CognitiveDissonance]

I'd like to thank you for tuning me onto Cataclysm, I played it all yesterday and it is amazing! I need to play more roguelike games...
But now that I'm at work, I will just watch them from your channel!

Ah prospector, played it maybe two years or more ago. Think i once scored a nice cruiser after finding it derelict because the former owners ran out of fuel and no one responded to their distress beacon in time, or something like that.

[MetalSlimeHunt]

I'm already pretty certain that you're going to be most successful as a pirate.

[Stworca]

Is it possible to take someone else's ship? If yes, how do you do that? Quite frankly, that's the only thing i want to do right now.

[MetalSlimeHunt]

I'm not sure. If you can find a way to dock with another ship and kill the crew, I think you might be able to take it?

Unless im confusing it with another rouge-like Ive played, i believe so.


I believe you can switch your active ship to an abandoned/crewless ship you find/cause if its in good enough condition. Then you can tow your old ship with a tractor beam back to a station and sell it, after stripping it of any equipment you want to keep, for a good profit. Without a beam you have to leave a ship behind.

Once on-board a ship, if it has no crew i think you just need to get to a working helm console, assuming the ship is operational.

-Edit-

Yeah, you can take over from the bridge. It just asks if you want to abandon your ship and switch to the new one when you get there. Not sure how tractoring factors in then, just going off what the game manual said about towing with that.

Let me be somewhat more specific, then.

Sometimes there are ships 'parked' on planets, including ships of rival prospector teams. What do i press to take it over?  I tried facerolling over the keyboard, and still nothing.

[FritzPL]

Moronic jizzrack damages your ship everytime.

I was never keen on watching b12 LPs.
And you changed it around.
With an awesome fucking accent and humour comparable to that of one f jef.


Also, you can target a creature with your awayteam's weapons, so it fires in more than 8 directions. Press 5 and then move the cursor over the creature.

Not as far as i can tell. Cant find anything about it, and i don't ever remember doing it.

[GentlemanRaptor]

PTW. You're playing roguelikes, and that makes me smile.

[CognitiveDissonance]

damn you... DAMN YOU... you have gotten me addicted to Cataclysm. I have had a few 4am nights already, WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS TO ME!

Looking forward to next Prospector

The time and space warping random number generator strikes again, showering us with instant death events.

Prospector, part 2, is up! Woe and despair.
