I definitely have to play it! I was a little bit with it yesterday night (nothing serious) and it seems very enjoyable :) :)
Any chance for an English version?
Yes!
When? :)
Haha! Really soon ;)
Is this one PAWed, DAADed or something elsed?
Nope! It's written in pure BASIC.

I must add, the pictures are compressed, the unzipping routine is the only asssembler part.
Waiting for the English version :) Hope it arrives before my Spanish is good enough to play the current release :D
Stay alert! It's really, really near!!
Finally, the English version is out!

Had a first go today... And got stuck quite quickly :).
I manage to type the ELITO code which... closed the access to the Est side, and I couldn't do anything else on the West side

.
A few quirks:
- No savegame?
- No way to disable the images, to move between known rooms faster.
- L to get a new description also reloads the image, which is unnecessary.
- No short cut to the most used verbs, such as "examine".
But the game seems interesting nonetheless, so I hope I won't get stuck for too long :).

Keep on examining all in that area...
Quote- No savegame?
No, it's not necessary. The game is not too long.
Quote- No way to disable the images, to move between known rooms faster.
We tried to do loading the fastest possible.

You are right. But the game is programmed in such way.
Quote- No short cut to the most used verbs, such as "examine".
Try with EX.
Played the Eng Version yesterday! Great work done guys! Wonderful game. :)
Hello!
Thank for this adventure! :)
I'm stuck i think in the end:
I think I've done everything right, I have all the codes (1st officer and captain), but as much as I enter the codes in the command center,, the ship ends up destroying itself. I have even found a solution, and it seems to be the same as I do.
Thanks!
As Orion Prime used screens made with System Shock 2 editor, what did you use here ?

No, that's the true ending, you end trapped in worm hole

Hi.
I'm very proud that you like this venture programmed in basic language.The truth is that the graphics have been made with an unusual process. First I found the images I was going to need for each room. Then I went through a filter, using the application for mobile phones, Android, 8bit Photo Lab (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ilixa.ebp&hl=es_419). Finally I went through ConvimgCPC, to save the scr.
Thanks.
