I've got 10 beta testers now, which should be enough. Thanks to everybody that's volunteered!

It's got some bugs that have been eluding me so far. I'll probably have to look through the source code with a fine comb... Sure! Just PM me your email address. If it's a @googlemail or @gmail address, you'll have to get an alternate, as I've had trouble mailing attachments to these addresses.

Glad to hear it! :) Have you experienced any crashes yet?

Very much so, as I've only got four testers so far. Please PM me your email address. Thanks! :)

In case anybody's wondering: The game runs in DOS, Windows and DOSBox, so it should run on most systems.

Great! I'll mail you the beta when it's done -- probably tomorrow or saturday. Can you PM me your email?

You don't need to devote that much time to it. I just want to check that the game will actually run on people's different systems. You can just play as much as you've got time to/want to... :)

Are you still interested in playtesting?

The good news: I've got everything gathered in one working program now and the game is running with only rare crashes. All that's left to do now is test the missions that haven't been tested yet and clean up a few things. I hope to have a beta version available for testing within a weeks...

Yeah, there are a few headaches involved, but nothing that couldn't be solved. And I really like the idea, so it will probably be implemented at some point. I like that as a pirate you'd have to "take care" of innocent witnesses, if you don't want to get fined and have the offence added to your...

Congrats NinjaLA! A truly awesome drawing!

Hmmm... Interesting idea. There's a lot of things I would have to keep track of though, since each ship doesn't have a "life" of it's own, but is just generated when you enter a system. One way to do it would have the program check if any ships have witnessed a crime, when you leave the system...

In version 0.1 that I'll release next month, the offences system doesn't really have much effect, except as an overview of just how criminal you are. In one of the next versions I'll probably do just as you speculated; that you can pay your fines to get the confeds and/or militia off your back...

I've completed the load and save game procedures. The below picture shows the Load Game menu. When you move the cursor over the saved games, you get a short summary of that game to help you remember what's what. And here's a few pictures of the Quine4000, that I forgot to post when I...

That's the problem with living in Denmark... The party doesn't start until midnight my local time and I have to get up early on saturday. I'll probably pop in for a few minutes, though.

I've completed the last base layouts and the procedure for buying a new ship. Next up is movie recording while on a base, and then I'll start working on music and sound effects. Things have been moving along a lot quicker than I originally expected, so I think version 0.1 of the game will be...

The fixer missions are (mostly) completed. I just need to do a few things once I've completed everything base-related and begin joining the 'space' and 'base' parts of the game (these have been programmed separately so far). But for now, they're done: I'll do the...

Merchants' Guild missions (finally!) done: Next up is private (fixer) missions...

I'd like to, but I haven't really been able to find any. You know of any good sites/forums?

A few more things are done: - the main menu - the options menu - conversations with bartenders
