Counting stars.

Star Control: Origins is now available, DRM-free on GOG.com.
This is a sci-fi action/adventure with RPG elements and a new start for the beloved series. While investigating a far away distress signal upon Earth's first interstellar starship, you stumble upon this procedurally created galaxy, full of unknown alien races. A plot is being hatched, threatening to throw the entire galaxy into disarray, but your battle-readiness and thirst for thorough exploration might just avert it.

Make sure to pick up the Soundtrack for your collection.

It's Stardock, DLCs/expansions are a given. I enjoy the hell out of their games but they are a little too DLC/expansion happy.

The DLCs are usually small things added to the game like extra races or cosmetic items (see GalCiv3).

The expansions are usually a complete rework of the base game with tons of things added (see Sorcerer King Rivals).

Might want to steer clear of this one if you don't want to support a dev/publisher who's actively trying to wrench all rights to the Star Control franchise from its original creators:

Indeed, this cheery, childish looking StarDock game deserves to be boycotted.
It's a pity that GOG has not implemented filters yet, or I would definitely add one that hides all things related to StarDock products automatically..

You left out this little nugget of shit:

By purchasing the Star Control®: Origins pre-order, you understand and agree to be bound by the following Non-Disclosure Agreement

[i]By purchasing this product (Star Control: Origins), you agree to not post any screenshots, streams or

Thanks for extending the ever so gracious privilege of talking about your game! I hope it bombs.

I guess GOG considers digital rights management as separate from human rights management.
