Was well worth 10 dollars, but to hell with this game

Yet another attempted unlock run, not a single homeworld sector spawns for me, again.

I don't think a game has annoyed me this much since I was a kid. Up yours Mathew/Justin (but excellent game, I must admit)

is it just me or is the gamer inside you guys grinning at this thread?

thx matthew and justin for making a game that is not on auto drive and that requires some commitment.

videogames are not movies, you are not granted access to the end just by being there.

@ azuredreams and please if your not interested in working for your entertainment don't ask for a media that is not for you to adapt to your needs, rather search for media that is more suited for your needs.

you know the jfk speach, ask not america what she can do for u but ask youselves what u can do for america....

ciao and good luck unlocking ships if you try again

Yeah, no sacred cows here. Game's great but the crystal ship unlock was retarded.
"Game's supposed to be punishing"? So am I.

Just unlock it with a trainer after giving it an earnest amount of commitment, I say. Try to reach sector 2 asap and check
if you can travel 3 green sectors and then 3 red ones, thats the quest.

just consider that once u unlocked all content the game loses a lot of its appeal.

I have unlocked the crystal on my 104th run, the last 60 or so were unlock attempts.
Just stay with it, you'll manage eventually.
Good luck.

I think that was the point. To make a game just like back then, when we were kids.

Hmm, I think I have my savegames from my crystal unlock. As soon as sector one or two but with all homeworlds spawned in proper order and with unlock 100% possible. (but on easy)
