Beautiful graphics, excellent details.

These have likely been mentioned elsewhere, but darned if they're easily found ..

Landed on Tenaris .. mission computer should tell you if you have the items "In House" .. considering it has auto-stock capabilities .. it doesn't have to load them for you, but it should at least tell you they're there (can't quite figure out the object to check in the script to modify it myself)

Void Mining .. okay .. it can been seen as happening outside normal space-time, so 1 hour home space time makes some sense, it also allows you to make use of the rest of the day. The singular Precursor Crate (roll) is okay .. seems the Colapsar Torpedo could use a 1-2 random chance so you can keep rolling if you have the patience (already altered this one myself)

Regular Mining .. the refusal to do so after a certain time makes sense, but it should take a set amount of time .. say 3-4 hours .. so if you start at 0800 you're not wasting the entire day mining, and if you start at 1700 you're going to sleep immediately afterward.

Hyperspace travel .. exactly the same as mining above. The way both of them are set up is frustrating because they start and end in ways that are inconsistent with the passage of time. It's just so .. annoying .. if there were a choice, I'd rather have those two sorted out than mission screen "In House" notifications. (may go looking to alter those myself eventually)

The ship itself does need one more room, a statuary one where you can activate a 'display' of each bot you've found a shell for.

Otherwise .. already spent far too long getting just the right bot setup for near $30,000,000 values. Haven't even finished one version of this game and looking forward to the next update. Nice work.

(one last thought .. the Infiltrator shell .. figured out how to keep it assembled and keep it from even trying to escape the botlab .. it's a shame it can't be used in the arcade .. an idea for that is that it always reverts to its default "Infiltrator" stats, traits and personality when removed from one bot and added to another .. that way it could be used for both (and an excuse to use more precursor cubes))

Thanks for the suggestions on player experience. I'll include that (esp. the time passage consistency) into the balancing / tuning tweaks that come for 1.30.

Glad you enjoy the game so far.

Cheers .. one very last thought about the mission computer .. it 'could' tell you that you have the items "In House" even while you're out in space .. (because of the auto-stock (and only once you have that capability)) .. of course you'd still need to fly back to get it .. (wasting time efficiently?)

(that thought just got really big. time to stop thinking)

(thinking too hard) .. a possible penalty for mining too late in the evening .. start mining at 1700, you sleep through the morning briefing and the crew randomly chooses what they feel like wearing and doing

Oh, I like the way you think - just, maybe let the "little grey cells" have a lie down for a bit! And a bun. Buns are good.

I agree with your thoughts on Void Field mining. (My first thought when that popped up was to look out for Void Cows. Ahem)

The passage of time is a Thing, and having a set finish time, regardless of when you start does feel a bit weird, as well as compressing the time available for one's evening rounds attending to the crew's needs, visiting the Space Bar (I note that there's no lock requiring an Any Key) and so on. You could say the same thing about T'Ris and her station walks. After the first one for each outfit it takes her all blinking day, rather than an hour, maybe two. What's she doing?

Have a set period, maybe a late start penalty as you said, and the rest is gravy. Or custard.

completely forgot about T'Ris station walks .. even as few as they were, it was annoying.

Late evening mining could even be a cumulative thing .. two evenings in a row, you sleep through the third morning, no briefing, not even knowledge of how your arcade bots did, or whether they were returned to you (random chance of missing morning delivery, delayed to next morning?)

Time management kinds of things .. consider timings carefully to minimize idle time, and maximize benefits against possible penalties, loses, or opportunities put off until later.

(Do I mine tonight, or go see T'Ris)

when i put seraphine on shopping she never does anything, i also made sure to have 1 000 000 credits on hand aswell, she always says the same about i need to ask her later

Once you assign the task for her in the morning (!) you can ask her from 18:00 regarding the results. (if you have more than 1 mil)

PS: do not use any mods like URM as they may screw up the gane.

i dont have any mods, but she just says ask me later, she never shops for anything and i have right now 4,5 mil

I wonder if there is a dice roll that says Seraphine was success or not? I have some odd conversations with her at the hours prescribed, all of them telling me she's still, like, looking for stuff.

No mods in use - they frighten me.

I'm having a problem with console commands - money is okay, but adding an item to me or to the cargo bay gives me a "syntax error" response.

I even copy/pasted from the walkthrough, to make sure.

How do you tamper woth the locks it wont let me with the wrist control unit

Do you mean the pink handcuffs in Nimhe's room?

First click on them so you can "look" at them.

Then "use" your wrist control unit.

It won't work if you have not looked at them first. If it's another lock, I may not have got that far yet.

how to extract the pc ver. it gives me an error thing.

Checked the opc version, works fine. mac version originally had an issue but its fixed.

Anyway, here's a mirror for PC:

every time i try to extract the game it says that it is corrupt.. help?

Thanks for pointing it out. 
The itch Mac links seems corrupted.
Here is a mirror (Mac): https://mega.nz/file/CuJTxaCa#irhb4tl9rUDrft8ybCrv_a0yZgZTeqao7Ame6REnovQ

so for every new update do i need to start a new game just curious

(+1)

There are technical reasons for that.
As mitigation I have implemented a method to forward your gear to a new game and also implemented start points.

its all good i was just curious since i didnt wanna corrupt anything thanks

Привет друг)

А есть руководство на новую версию?

Не могу задание пройти, не соображу что игра от меня хочет)

Explore the Quthor system| Traverl to QuThor through the Gate and convince the Drengarians to let you access the Precursor Site. 

I forgot to add the new walkthrough

https://mega.nz/file/625nFKKa#eolsXFV2bhHacW4wVJgRUhYqLTyROOG89vHXkncB_U0 

The precursor site in quthor is V1.20 content. 

Main goal of V1.10 is to gain access to qzuthor and hire Dr Moira.

Так вот оно что, я понял, тогда ждем следующую версию)

Спасибо)

The additions are great... It still feels like you waste enormous potential with the current usage of both the holodeck as well as the surveillance monitor. Do you intend to add to both systems or will they stay in the current extent?

I opened too many loose ends and have to focus a bit.
I wanted to expand the holodeck but seraphine wasn't really popular among my patrons so i had to rewrite her personality a bit first (started in v1.10 with that=

(1 edit)

That is a sad but good explanation. I will bug you in around a year again, if it still hasn't changed.

Still, thank you for the game

any femdom in this game and character name, please?

or dominating personality female character name 

Oh, my!

You genius!

Yes, I just worked something out. It's not mentioned anywhere (hence the circumlocution) and it's wonderful.

Can't wait to see how you get (redacted) to (redacted) the (redacted)!

Not sure what that could be (there are some hidden dialogue options when you use certain items, maybe those...)

(1 edit)

In the Xenos station our hero wonders how he can get "me spaceship upgraded".

When chatting with Nimhe our hero sometimes muddles up "You don't say".

The Grammar Police, here to Correct And Serve.

(1 edit)

You don't say is grammatically correct afaik...
Fixed the other point V1.20 upstream

Thanks

He muddles up "you don't say"

Her says, e.g. "Say you don't", but the context is wrong for that to be right...

Hello all, I am loving the game so far and I created an account just for this game to engage with the community.  I am having trouble with upgrading my ship, particularly the ai cores.  I have two so far (including the one given at the beginning) and I am having trouble upgrading my ship enough to go hunting for them in the precursor junkyard.  Any advice would be appreciated.


Thank you!

Take your time!

This is a complex game, and you need several things done to complete each step before you can go on to the next level of the quest to return home. 

AI Cores are rare, to start with. There are also plenty of other things you need to have in place before you are in a position to go into the junkyards.

At the heart of the game is your relationship with your crew. Then it's your reputation/ notoriety. Which means doing missions, helping freighter captains, rescuing slaves, even drug-running! Building up your crew's trust, seducing them and showing them off is also a part of this.

Be patient, enjoy your crew, mine like there's no tomorrow. The rewards will come!

(2 edits)

AI Cores are mainly combat loot, so getting ready for combat (via pirate outpost) ist the first big step. Brigands (Lvl2 mobs) start drop cores with 15% probability, Lvl3 mobs and missions with higher prob.

You can perfectly go lvl 1 or 2 bounty hunting without any ai cores if you have your laser and shield equipped with all the other subunits that can be purchased at the pirate base and iltari (if you have your license) or found in space events.


Once you have Vee join your crew (around day 40) and the swarm comes for you you get tons of cores :)

There's also a walkthrough in the OP with more detailed combat help.

Glad you enjoy the game so far!

i think my game is glitched i cant get weapons and shields

You can get weapons and shields. Prerequisite is you have received the Pirate outpost quest from vigo. The walkthrough describes how to find the base.

I've got to the holocastle bit. All I can do is give V her stuff. Is that a feature of playing pre-release, or have I completely derped the bit where I talk to "Space Barbie"?

Buy the Holprogram, Give V her stuff, give Seraphine her stuff and then take Seraphine to the Holodeck for Intro (go to her oom to pick her up)

Seraphine's room? I really have derped...I don't see it.

opposite nimhes, click on the door?

Oh gods.

I derped, I may have even double-derped.

 BTW, your characters are good - have you done any creative writing courses?

No writing courses, but probably done some reading ;)

Hey, does anyone know how to get BB-2 to hire an engineer at the pirate base? Thanks

Hi, there!

BB-2 doesn't do that sort of thing. One of the many ways it's an annoying 'droid.

When you are able to go to the Pirate Base you meet the contact your crew has. He will want a favour done, before he lets you do business. Do the favour, come back, and he will tell you you're in, and he recommends someone as an engineer. They turn up while he's talking. Just click on the new person and see what they cost!

Enjoy your new crew member!

Thanks dude

Last one for a while - Walking T'Ris about the station.

In the Racy and Revealing uniforms it takes all day.

I'm not sure that would be the case, and it does bog things down. Any chance we can throw a raincoat around her and get her back onboard by 12:00 hrs?

The textures for the new uniforms is good - looks like it might be a jersey knit, so soft and strong!

Oh, gods, I am so sorry! I found another...

It is repeatable, if occasionally it does NOT glitch.

You finish talking in the Lab or the Hologram Room, and click on the Turbolift button. And that's when the nightmare starts!!!

What you get is the doorways and the CCTV camera from the 2nd deck superimposed on your CC room.

That red drink is a slution waightign f'ra plobrem!

Yeah, that sort-of happened when I left Barbie's new bathroom - deck 2 overlayed by a hallway door on deck 1.

I'm getting a USS Philadelphia vibe about now.

Thanks. All those were related to the new sandbox introduced in V1.00.
Just looked at them while I packaged patreon Official Release 1.10.8 today and they all are fixed imho.

Thank you!

It's still a blinking good game.

Walking T'Ris to Admin for the Revealing Uniform. When you leave the ship there's a black screen with a short time later". In the Racy Uniform you click and it changes to a lovely view of a moon...ahem. In the Revealing one you have to click a second time to get a similar, clearer, view. It looks like the same screen repeats, rather than a double click is called. I could be wrong, though. Anyway, it's a lovely clear night, perfect for lunar topography.

Possible bug...

At the Cargo console, buying Wares in the lower portion of the table - e.g. Iron Ore - when you click "Buy" or "Sell" the table jumps. This results in buying the wrong item, as the cursor is promptly above a new item. Obviously "Sell/Buy All" won't be affected. This happens at all locations.

The viewport/table is normally fixed and position remembered. the jumping happens in some extraordinary circumstance (last item sold or sth like that). Will have to look at that during next testing cycle.

Thanks.

I suspect it's either the table is competing with itself (be this big at this location on the screen vs be scrolled up so I can see what I am doing) or something. It's repeatable, and seems to only happen when you are dealing with items around Gold Ore, which would be the "border" between the scrolled up and scrolled down limits.

If there's something that I can do which is mundane and simple, let me know, I am retired, interested, and have the time! I have no experience with modern coding, sadly.

The more I do in the game the more I like it. This is a big job!

Thanks for the info.

the game is indeed quite a project as I do everything (coding, art, story, rendering, ...) except for audio (which I contracted out for 1.10+) single handedly.
It was a fulltime project since January this year when I started (I have the time and I still enjoy it :)... )

I am always looking for engaged players to join the Beta testing team but for practical reasons (discord) I have limited that to VIP patrons so I can be sure of the engagement.

Of course any bug reports on the public version are also welcome and thanks for that!

Thx

hi. i Like the Game so far, The Mining and Trading part is Mayby to Long, 

Now i have the Quest the send a Sexbot to Arcade, but I dont now How,

Hi! 

Make sure your Sexbot is in storage in the Bot machine.

Click on Lab Manager

at the top there's an option for Sexbot Arcade, iirc.

Click on that, select the Sexbot you want to send, and a pop-up will tell you they are on their way!

Good luck!

When it's 19:00 hrs, on the Bridge, and I ask Vee for a "Bridge Favour" she replies "I assume you are referring to a favour that inviolves..."

There's an excess "i" in there. So much for the Swarm being superior! Ha!

Mind you, in the Hint pop-up for "Advanced Command Positions" the instruction suggests someone might be "helful". Someone has taken the "p".

Thx. Registered.

Two questions - 

1) After all the work I did to recruit Nimhe, it feels a bit too easy to get Khelara on board. She's also difficult to cheer up. I use the Fire on her. like the candle for T'ris, and nothing happens - Khelara worries me!

2) Could you make bot ownership optional? After the first day owning BB's creation it's just sad, seeing it sat on the bed. It's like BB was trying to recreate the Captain, and, well, it feels awkward, knowing there's something of the woman in its make-up.

Comment - 

The more I get into it the more your game impresses.

(1 edit)

Thanks for the suggestions. 
I can put the bot in optional "storage" if that is better. She is still required for the story I think.
Or I give her better personality

Optional storage would be really good.

That way you can bring her out for some crucial "we need to make someone think Captain Jennings is still around" stuff. Otherwise she will still be sitting on my bed looking very lonely.

Anyway, that's my Social Engagement Quota met for the week, now I'm joining Galaxina in "Back to Outer Space!"

I'm kinda stuck.  Can't progress to the library without Precursor map fragments, but I have no idea how to find them...

(+1)

They can be gained in iltari and arellarti precursor junkyard sites if you defeat the core (3rd level / run). Start with iltari, as that one is the easiest (but go well prepared)

So my AP from Khelara is 6 already but her sluttiness won't raise to 3. It still stuck at 2 no matter how many time i watched her in the shower...

Thats a bit hard to explain but to get more action from khelara you need to bring her her favourite drink prior to the shower (ice tea)

I did have the ice tea, brought it to her at 20:00, she refused. And if i got into the shower, just a scene that been displayed before. Her sluttiness still not been raised...

How do you defeat the Krell and their seekers? I have full upgrades and the BFT torpedoes but I still get shredded

TLDR: Ignore the seekers, use bft mainly with aoe for more than one target and hide prior to your last move and end turn

Oh, I like this game!

First off, it has the words "Space" and "Journey" in the title. Always wanted to be a cosmonaut or a colnist in some far-off galaxy.

Then there's all the upgrading. I have no idea why, but fixing sparky bits and upgrading stuff in the Engineering console really butters my scones.

Finally, T'Ris. I can't say that name without growling.

Funny thing, she vaguely reminds me of someone...never mind.

I like every aspect of this game, and all the minigame bits I keep finding (crates in the Engineering section, the space battles - which are surprisingly well-worked, given that it's Renpy rather than, ooh, say, Unreal 5- the daily orders)


Best advice, DON'T RUSH! There's a lot going on, so it pays to make sure you have things sorted in your head. There are a few nice puzzles, hard but not ridiculous, which are very pleasing to solve.

Anyway, I need to debrief my First Officer. Again.

I am glad you enjoyed the game so far.
I tried to make a game with some undercurrents of sex and not vice versa.

Som e critcize there is too much "game" in the game but for those there is a great game called xvideos.com which has lots of sex scenes and no grinding ;)

I had a think about this.

The fact that there is so much else to do makes the sex more relevant. You are, after all, invested emotionally with your crew, because of the time you spend with them... in the real world. There is another game, almost too difficult to get one's head around, called Masters of Raana. The creator has a similar approach - and you really have to pay attention, think before clicking, before you get to the goodies. Then you have to work even harder to manage all the components to keep the goodies coming!. 

I'm older than many gamers (64, thanks for asking!) and grew up reading hard books, playing chess and tabletop wargaming. I find too many games refuse to let us access our frontal lobes!

I am in the part where the Infiltrator Bot is to install a virus in Kranor Labs. I got the infiltrator shell addad it to my highest rated bot (IQ 246!), then put it into active lab storage. When night has passed, it has escaped, even after many attempts.

(1 edit)

The mission night it doesn't escape, so you might be missing some condition. The hint of the quest describes exactly all conditions. (argus unit at 100%, right location?, infiltrator in lab storage cell not cargo stasis, ... ...)

Thanks! I found my problem: I had no cloaking modules attached to the shield. Having corrected this, everything went smoothly.

Where did you get the cloaking modules? I can't find them

Go to the pirate base, enter the middle ship in the lot. You will talk to the Krell guy (frog face). He owns a shop that you can buy a cloak for 480k or something

(+1)
I'm having difficulty with the discipline part, can anyone help me with the combos?

there is an attachment in the walkthrough with the combos. you dont need all just reach level iii for max sub effect

Weres i can find ? Kahela arousal cant go to level iii

Hey, what is the Argus Unit and how to I get it to 50%?

It is sold by Shady once you have received the quest to get it.

Install it via the cargo bay terminal

Upgrade it via the engine room terminal by adding subunits

Thank you : )

I'm real sorry to be a pain but is the Argus quest the blocked maintenance door quest or is it a different quest I haven't got yet?

(1 edit)

The maintenance door quest is the one for finding vee again.

It has a few conditions (one of the the argus). best to consult the walkthrough on that.


Oh, and Argus is the device configured in the "Upolink" section of the engine config

Thanks again, sorry for being  a pain, haha

Hello, first off great game. Where is the bot arcade?

You can send to or retrieve a bot from the arcade in the lab manager terminal (the one next to the forcefield) -> tab bot manager -> send to arcade

Highly intelligent bots (IQ 140+) are illegal and you must be at the pirate station or in arellarti to arcade em.

Thanks! How do I get the buttplug disciplines done? The combinations suggested don't work because of stress

That comes in v 1.20. assets are just preparation.

Ok thanks!

Your attention to detail is amazing! A wonderful perfectionist.

Moving on, if you want to flesh out an area later, I found the patrol woman near Shady in the bar hot. We get favor with her turning in slaves once, and I wish there was some way to get any further with her. Perhaps more turning in of slaves, more persistent buying of drinks, as some ideas. A gradual seduction of the official. Something more than a BJ in the backroom. Perhaps have her reward the MC with sex in the alley outside? That's got an enticing erotic corruption angle: the upstanding public official giving sexual reward favors out in the alley. Repeatable when the MC turns over more recovered slaves?

I know your plate is full. Just tossing an idea out there. Cheers mate!

(2 edits)

I'm glad you like the game!
You know you can have sex with Audra already? (you can give her a "tour" of the ship as soon as she greets you with "Freedom Champion"..., 20 slaves or so, multiples freed at once count multiple too)

Some more content with Audra is definitely planned too... ;)

how does one go about collecting every shell? also just finished current version great gam

(+1)

farm the shells in the Arellarti Asteroid Belt passage from Krell Pirates.
There are (farmable) C, K, L, V, N
Quest related: J, I

How does the sex with T'ris work ive got her at 0 stress 149 FP and ive met her in the mess hall but nothing happens and when i ask her to do the deed she says no am i missing something

Is a bit long to explain. There is a walkthrough linked in ty main post which explains it. And you only need 5FP for it

essentially you have to do 2 bjs, then ask nimhe for help to autotrain tris

yea i did that stuff but it still aint working unless do i have to ask nimhe to train her more than once?

(+1)

I found it on the guide it was the drink that i was missing

how do the J Type bots work i cant seem to find them anywhere or do any upgrades even though ive unlocked them

nvm figured it ou

Not a fan of this versioning convention... Because for majority of people "1.0" is the first full release of the game (meaning completable from the beginning till the end..) Current 1.0, though is not the whole game, because I see that that there is at least 2 more updates ahead.. Also confusing that the zip file does start with 0.. which would indicate that this is 0.10, not 1.0...

Well, I ran out of numbers and as I communicated 0.90 before, I didn't want to go to 0.100 which would have been the correct thing to do.
Anyaway, now I am at 1.10.x etc. with 1.10 being the release and .x the subversions (beta, early access, ...)
Will probably count up to 1.80 until the game is done.

hi, is only my problem? i cant play with my 0.90 save in the 1.00, its in load game section but if i click it nothing happend (my english is shit srry)

The game versions for technical reasons are _NOT_ save game compatible.
What to do:

1. New Game
2. Select Continue point (last for new stuff only)
3. Fly to Rift and get Your gear from Multiverse Pod (if you need it)

Very promising... But there are many times when a door is closed (e.g. during the handcuff sessions) where I'd appreciate to stalk whatever is going on using the cameras
