Fun concept but CONFUSING

I am very frustrated with movement and aiming controls. The help is not clear for someone who is not mathematically savvy. How does 1.414 equal a diagonal move?? And warping at 0.anything to try to stay within a quad seems to have wildly different results each time. One result can be my ship randomly needing 40-50 years to repair! I didn’t do anything. Would appreciate update with much clearer explanations, or to be linked to a comprehensive user manual.

Thank you for the feedback. I will revisit the movement calculations. Will also look at the repair logic.

Excellent support

I reported a minor issue, and the developer fixed it and responded within a month. Thanks very much!

Nice retro game - cursor visibility issue

I’ve been playing this off and on for a couple of years. It’s a cool retro game - much like one of the very first computer games I played in the late 70s using a Decwriter, connected over a 300 baud acoustic modem…

Unfortunately, the latest update to fix the night mode rendered the cursor invisible on the day mode.

Still doesn’t work

Developer said to press the Help button. It doesn’t work.

Response from developer

I would suggest trying the Help button. The instructions will pop up and explain how the game works; just like the legacy game. I am on iOS 16.4 and the app functions correctly. If you click on say "Galactic Records", does anything show up in the scrolling area on the left-middle of the screen? One last thing, what iOS device are you using? Are you in portrait or landscape mode? Hi. I have duplicated your problem and am working in it. It looks like the app doesn't work, at present, in Dark Mode. The problem you were experiencing has been corrected.

Good implementation of the Classic game

A good implementation of the Classic dumb terminal mainframe Star Trek simulation. Full feature set. Not the simplistic version David H Ahol published in the old creative computing magazine.
