UrQuan Masters!
Given the seemingly older user base here, you guys should get a kick out of this:
http://koti.welho.com/jkukkone/uqm/ I've already played the PC version and beaten it (as well as the original SC2 back in the early 90's)... but... Star Control ][... on a 770? I'm grinning like stink right now. |
Installed, and it works! I cranked the graphics right up and it's not very playable. I need more time to experiment to see if I can get it right. Given how bad the D-pad is for gaming, I think I may leave ship combat on cyborg and let the game fight for me.
I can't believe nobody else has soiled themselves over this. Star Control 2 is the best game, of all time, ever. Nothing touches it. I remember waking up at 6am on weekends just to boot it through hyperspace and figure out what the hell it was the Ilwrath wanted me to do. |
God this game looks like another game I use to play a very loonnnnggg time ago maybe 1985-1988...not sure, but I forgot what it was called. Looks very simular to this one, you explore different planets and gather resources, fight with aliens, or make friends. It came with a large map of space where you can track worm holes and all that stuff. I played it on the Tandy 1000TL. Never got to finish though cause I borrowed it from a friend...I wonder if this is that game....

Thanks for any updates :) |
I haven't launched from the menu so I can't confirm the sound quality is any worse. From the command line with sound quality at the default low it's fine. I turned graphic detail to low and tried it at 640x480 but it was kind of laggy. 320x200 reduces things to the size of a postage stamp, but it's fast... providing you don't care being able to tell which way your ship is facing in combat.
As a work in progress, Super Melee seems doable however when I try to visit a planet it crashes; when the UrQuan drone comes to warn me about approaching Earth, the UrQuan just sits there twitching - - no speech/text. The RPG isn't playable at all, Super Melee should be providing you can configure it properly. Hats off to this ambitious attempt, best game of all time. |

I'm the guy who did the porting/Maemo packaging, hi all.
