Text in the start of the game just shows up as @'s

I can't execute it. When I press 'p', only a small white box is shown.

Nice but it lacks a clear purpose, just flying around in empty space and shooting at a few things isn't enough

SonnyBone

I didn't find anything to shoot other than planets, but they never exploded. :(

Aw, it still crashes on start for me. :( (Using Windows Vista) Sorry!

Due to me not having pixel shaders, the experience was reduced to black ships on a grey background. ;(

This game is too hard, it's almost impossible to shoot those enemy ships and not be destroyed first.

Couldn't get the upgrades to work, if they did then the lifespan of the game for me would be a lot longer.

Nice Graphics and chilling sound.

Liked the music. Ended up getting chased around by a bunch of ships, but finally found a ship big enough to be worthy of getting killed by : )

Learning curve is a bit steep. Also, it's frustrating to not know where a space station is... there also doesn't seem to be any way to heal? (other than randomly find a planet that does it for you) A nice chill game, and cool concept, but difficulty is a bit high. I finally mastered the combat but then died randomly to militants on a planet :/ The turret system is a bit weird.. to kill ships I had to 'game' the turret system and constantly aim in front of enemies while circling them.
