Not to take away the limelight from the impending arrival of Star Control: Origins, but thought I'd point to a game very similar to Star Control 2 for those who like similar adventures. To be honest TLJH could as well be a lovechild of Star Control 2 and Lunar Lander, and regardless of it's rough controls it's a really addictive experience full of great ideas.
The game is a year old already, perhaps some of you guys may have played it. It's a new discovery for me, so if you have experiences or strategies to share I'd appreciate it.
