Captain Jameson Alpha

By: Derek Yu

On: May 30th, 2011

Farbs has released an alpha version of Captain Jameson, the latest game in his Captain Forever series. Jameson has a lot of new features, including asteroids that block your path and large docking stations where you can sell scrap and buy add-ons, among other things. By far the most important station is the oxygen station, though – your oxygen levels deplete quickly and it takes many trips to explore even the perimeter of your starting area. New stations can be unlocked by trying to dock with them and defeating the guardian ships that appear.

Certified fun. Cellulose seal of approval. (I've been helping test this.) The short life of the oxygen tank may be a little bothersome until you get used to it, though.

The oxygen mechanic really breaks up the action. Is it in place to limit the distance you can explore?

Alpha 0.2 is up! I've loosened the oxygen restriction and added oxy storage modules. There are also lots of other little tweaks.

I've thought about it, but unfortunately there's already this weird expectation that all the games will eventually be free. I need to counter that :/
