Title: Prospector 0.1.7
Post by: magellan on July 13, 2009, 09:57:50 PM

Hi guys.
Prospector 0.1.7 is there for those who dare to face it's numerous bugs!

These are the main things that happened since 0.1.6:

    * 5 new unique planets (actually 10, but 5 are pretty similiar to each other)
    * Bigger spacemap
    * Wormholes
    * Gas giants
    * selling disabled if you have no cargo
    * UI Improvements: You can land from the scanning screen, System overview shows atmosphere
    * Balance tweaks: Jetpacks need fuel, Firearms have more punch, Lower tier short range Weapons are more expensive
    * Fixed some glitches and bugs
    * Fixed some Typos again

It is still largely plotfree: Grab your scoutship, explore, pillage, kill and get rich :)
And it also is still availiable here:

Excellent to still see things chugging on along in a good direction.  Keep at it!   8)

Will do, because, you know, this is fun :)
Anyway: wanted to say that there is also a precompiled linux version, but i am highly uncertain if it works. So if anybody wants to/can try that one out (and tell me if it works) it would be highly apreciated!

It's definitely worth giving a shot.  It's really unique among roguelikes.

Looks like the linux version is working, so you don't have to try it anymore, anvilfolk (though you are of course more than welcome to try the game  ;D) Good luck with exam season!

& thanks for the pat on the back curseman! highly appreciated!
The new uniques are all pretty clichéd, but at least they are less obviously "sourced" ;)

Also I discovered some bugs and fixed them. (Planetside trading mainly & some rover wierdnesses)
