About This Game Moonpod's Starscape mixes old school arcade game play values with characterization and an involving plot to deepen the whole experience. With most of its crew missing and its weapons systems ruined, the space research station Aegis is all but lost. As the last remaining pilot you must help rebuild the station's defenses, acquire alien technology and create your own uniquely configured set of fighters. By mining the asteroids within the grid dimension, valuable resources can be harvested to fuel the Aegis's molecular furnace to build devastating weaponry. Within the nodes of the grid you will encounter allies to aid in the struggle to escape, uncover the terrible purpose of the evil Archnid race and learn why you and the rest of the crew were brought here.

The game has nice mechanics, but it is repetitive. The story could be interesting, but somehow isn't really in the end.There are only 2 things which really bother me about it.1: The resolution is limited to 800x600, which brings a lot of problems on newer hardware, and that resolution even bothered me way back then.2: There are achievements for finishing the game on Easy, Normal and Hard. As opposed to common sense, finishing hard does not give the other 2 achievements as well, so you'd need 3 playthroughs to get all achievements, which is ridiculous.If someone has endgame saves for easy and normal, please take a look at the discussion section of this game, it'd be cool to have those 3 saves here so the achievements could be achieved properly.So yeah, with those flaws and after all this time it's just not worth 10\u20ac anymore. If it's ever on sale again you might consider grabbing it if the points above don't put you off.. Awesome game. Makes for a decent 4X style game. Can't really expand your ownings, but can research and ugprade equipment, explore the place, mine materials to improve your odds.Very very fun, got 21 hours into it and a year later I'm coming back to play some more!. A nice try here, but if the game forces you to go through the tutorial and it's broke that is an issue. If you can put up with that then get this game. But not for $9.99 - That's just silly.. A cool little game that I have played many times, and enjoy every time. I initially purchased this game back in 2003 and didn't hesitate to purcahse a copy on Steam. The gameplay is solid and simple with enough variability to give it good replay value. Very enjoyable with good music and graphics considering its age. Well worth the price for an indie game.. Ah Starscape... what's not to love?Space shooter? Nice.Physics based handling? Not bad.Upgradable ship designs? Pretty good!Lots of semi-interesting characters with a less than vomit-inducing plot? Not great, but it could be worse.So... what's not to love? Why's this a thumbs down vote?Well... here's the rub: the handling on your ships is very realistic, but it's slow and clunky. I'm alright with that, normally. It requires some planning of momentum and some good piloting to be competent, and that's fine.The problem is that the boss battles aren't designed for the controls nor the physics of the game. They assume perfect, pristine, pin-point keyboard turning in rapid order. I'm fine with that if the interface made such a realistic possibility. Unfortunately, starscape's boss battles are like waltzing into the olympics' figure skating event wearing cross country skiis.It doesn't matter how good you are, the controls simply flat out SUCK for trying to fight the bosses, and player skill seriously only has a very small amount to do with it. Someone with godlike reflexes could theoretically get through in a few tries, but most of your boss battles involve being expected to start moving out of the way before a boss even begins to box you in, without knowing when or where that attack will come from. If your ship were even remotely possible to be set up to cope with that, great, but it's not.Keyboard turning and physics-based thrust maneuvering simply doesn't work for the style of bosses that Starscape throws at you.The rest of the game is fun and fine, a few minor nitpicks here and there, but it's good overall... but the act-ending bosses are mandatory, and they suck HARD. I don't mean "it's difficult", I mean it in the sense of "this is one of the worst design decisions I've ever seen anyone ever make... did they even play test this to see if it was fun?".Any fun you get from the game will be sucked dry as soon as you're stuck in a boss battle, and since the controls and interface flat out aren't up to the task of fighting the bosses, it's going to make you pull your hair out over it. I highly advise staying the hell away from Starscape just in general. Unless you're a masochist, then go right ahead.Anyway, to stress it again, there's a difference between "difficult" and "bad design and poor UI\/controls". Having a\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665poor interface does not equate to "difficulty", it just equates to being BAD.Final Verdict:Not worth it, even if it's on sale for $1. You'll probably break a keyboard that cost more than $1, even if you don't have a history of such, and are a pretty mellow person normally. While the game has lots of really good points to it, and does a lot of stuff very well, it's flaws are gamebreaking. When you put more effort into fighting the game's interface than you do fighting the boss, the game's a bust.Score: About 35%. It has some really good stuff, but the flaws are devastating and overpower any potential the game had.. Don't buy.- Lots of controller lag- Only refreshes at about 30fps.- Joystick support is terrible (no analog support). ThisThis is a very good game! Just like how i remembered it! Its worth the 10$It has a lot of reading but if you are fine w\/ that get it! Manage your resources! The thing you will want most are the purple and green ores from what ive seenKeep away from the mining lazer people. Use your rockets on emOk thats all 6.6\/6 game
