There are both technologically-advanced planets producing hi-tech cargos and primitive planets most of these produce just raw materials, if anything , and so on. They also have political systems; some are democratic and allow free trade, while others can be more hostile and attack you on sight. Of course, in games, space isn't empty. Many other races and their ships exist in the game. Some of them are peaceful, others are not. At the start of the game it is wise to avoid combat with other ships since you can be destroyed very easily , but consider also that more money is gained by trading with dangerous planets.
For instance, a planet that has a problem with pirates will pay more for delivered cargo than a peaceful planet. You can also decide about what you will do in the game. You can stay a simple trader or you can be a space pirate and steal cargo from other ships watch out for the police. Either way, your main task is to make more money and to earn more fame. By making money you can equip your ship with better weapons etc, and by earning fame you advance in rank.
The highest rank you can achieve is the "Elite" status, but you have a long road ahead before you reach that rank. At certain points in the game, you receive predetermined missions.
The mission types differ- their requirements can be simple, like transporting a package from one planet to another, or more complex, like killing a certain pirate, and so on. The graphics in the game are primitive by today's standards, but they do their job. The ships and space stations where you dock for loading and unloading cargo are depicted with wire-frame graphics, the predecessor to 3D.
Colours are very few - there are as many as CGA allows! I am running this on DosBox. If anyone could help that would be fantastic. Wynter 1 point. Alp 2 points. I used to play this on the ax spectrum There was a bug so that if you launced then stopped and turned over so you were in line with the space station entrance you could fly right back it and if you hit hyperspace while in the docking tunnel you found yourself docked at the target planets station I did that u too I could afford a docking computer Wonder if it works on the other versions?
