Well they're not "like" GOG, in that they're shittily maintained, as Humble apparently leaves maintenance and choice of format to the devs (we here complain when GOG messes up, but Humble is on a whole new level), but yes.

I have to admit this is the first game where I see a "scienist" as a playable class. Something to do with mushrooms, I believe.

I picked this up at Humble the other day, which was shortly after B16 was released.

I installed the DRM Free version (of course) and it looked like it wanted to hook me up online - it popped up with several available Teams, so it should be pretty easy to set up a MP game.

Not being much for online play and not knowing my way around in the game I just did a Private offline game and used Bots to fill out the other roles.

Bots in themselves are pretty interesting, and you can tweak the AI and behavior of each Profession.
Pretty much by default in a SP game you're the Captain, so there is no Bot for that (yet) as far as I know.

Definitely a lot to learn yet, but it's looking pretty good :)


They've since released two updates bring it to B16.2

Every time someone wishes for a space game with big walkable ships and also co-op gameplay, I always get this and
that on my mind...

But the game looks interesting.

Well, the Ships aren't that big :)

There are larger ships than the one I've played, but I doubt they're as huge at that - it is a 5 person crew after all :D

Considering the image link in the game's description is broken....

Just to mention, I am seeing a DRM-free icon on that game. Would assume that means it's not Steam only.

DRM Free - yes

As mentioned up above, the newest update to 16.2 was released yesterday, when I check HB (yesterday) the DRM Free version was already up to that version as well - which kind of surprised me.

HB used to lag in updating, but they'd already updated.

I have yet to move from 16 to 16.2 as I just saw the release announcement yesterday.

Space AND biscuits?! I love both -- sold! Now to get the money for it.

Looks good, gave it a wishlist vote, https://www.gog.com/wishlist/games/pulsar_lost_colony

Two in fact: https://www.gog.com/wishlist/games/pulsar_lost_colony_1

I post that because I;m not sure what is done when there are two duplicate wishlists for the same game. If anything.

Yeah, i did see the second one, ignored it to not muddy the water.
Seems there is no way to coalesce them, the wishlist is a mess of such things.

Like the forums, huh? ;

Didn't know if they could be merged or something similar. Thank you for the response.

Pulsar looks interesting! How is the singleplayer mode? Does it work with an Xbox 360 controller?
