Hi George, hi all,


Nice, just downloaded it ! So it takes .99a saves OK, or do you recommend to throw them away ?

0.99c takes saves from previous versions (0.98d, 0.99, 0.99a, and 0.99b).

In fact, there are some cases in which 0.99c will even "fix" save files that were corrupted by previous versions.

If you have a save file corruption problem in 0.99c, then please report it (and let me know whether it is a new game or a game started previous to 0.99c).

I only post about "throwing out" saves in jest, though I *do* restart every time a version comes out, otherwise, I might miss a bug. We are, after all, play testing the game. Our goal is to find bugs, and so I start from scratch with every version. It's just a personal choice though.

Now that the bugs which affected the earlier 0.99's have been fixed, the game runs damn fine.

Bravo George!

I've been trying this version out for several days now and I'm having a blast (Thermo cannon style)! Yes I know it' been out for a while, but then I've been out for a while as well. I haven't really messed with the game since probably version 0.98b (yes, that's .98, NOT .99).
The mining is pretty cool - I've found that the plasma torch will usually coax ore out of ripe asteroids with a single hit.
The severe turning penalty when you have only about 50% of your cargo hold filled (with a sapphire) is pretty annoying though.
I was a bit surprised, but not totally unpleasantly so the first time I was killed by the explosion of a base.
There seems to be lots of new missions too.
Great work George!
