Was searching for this the other day. It's basicly a space trading game similar to the classics like drugwars only alot more complex. Just posting a link here for others who like space trading games! It's my favorite one of the genre easily in depth and randomness, which gives alot of replayability.

Looks a LOT more complex than Drug Wars. Might be fun...

Tagged for later.  Sounds interesting.

I've tried it, but several of my games ended when a random "cosmic discontinuity" diverted me from my course and i guess the new destination was too far because I never had enough fuel to get there, and so it was game over.

So i never had the chance to try combat or to buy equipment or new ships, and this was on an "easy" setting.

I don't really like games where you can just randomly lose without being able to do anything about it.

I keep reading "Viagralatica".

Pussy. 

You obviously got unlucky. I've never had that! and the randomness is as fair as it is harsh.  Gives the universe a good tandomness replayability.

That sounds like the least fun thing ever.

Unfortunately, even if it's random, it still sucks. I don't want to invest a few hours into it and lose it all because of a random 'you lose' event. Losing can be a lot of fun... but not if the game just decides I need to lose for no apparent reason.

It sounds rather Fun. I mean, I've had games in DF where my wagon spawns right on a GCS. Oh, the horror.

Yeah, but that's actually Fun. Imagine starting DF, getting a bit of farming and digging going, then the screen goes black and says "There was an earthquake! You lose!"

Played a few tries, but random events keep fucking me up constantly. Losing half of my money to robbers during the first few days isn't that fun. I wish there were positive events too - now it is always chocolate rain. Dunno, I'm a roguelike masochist at heart, so guess I'll keep playing it now and then, but the negative random events should be toned down.
