Starcom: Unknown Space (Making sci-fi exploration a slug)

You COULD build your own type of ships, you know, if everything wasn't so damn expensive.


 Ever thought that exploration games were too dynamic? Ever thought, "Hey, real explorers need to drift for hours before finding something remotely interesting!"? Well, Starcom: Unknown Space is the game for you.


If the thrill of aimlessly wandering around scanning random planets in same-looking star systems, collecting resources that you don't even know what they're for (but for some reason are never enough) wasn't enough, Starcom also introduces a novel mechanic of intergalactic battleship combat: Spam the enemy while staying outside their range. There are over five different, completely unique weapons that you don't need and probably can't afford either.

(Any resemblance to other fallen empires and evil churches is completely coincidental.)
