You guys are HEROES! HEROES I SAY!
« on: May 31, 2003, 04:37:45 pm »

Whats this? A properly done port of Star Control 2, one of the greatest ever games, to modern computers? Am I dreaming? Am I going mad? Is this an Ur-Quan I see before me?

It is! Oh glory be! Oh happy days!

The people behind this project must be heroes. Nay, godlike beings of omniprescient genius and general wonderfulness.

Any mortal praise shall be woefully insufficient for such munificient beings. But suffice to say: fantastic! Keep up the good work guys!

Yours, bravely as ever,

They are but hunams, friend Spathi. Very intelligent and committed hunams, but mere hunams nonetheless.

Yes...we're having them for...dinner. They go nicely with mashed potatoes and a touch of gravy. Shocked

Did that sound enough like Hannibal Lecter?

I love it when you drain the crew off of the ship, and it ressurrects them all even though only one died.

It must be like this, the last crew is the leader of the ship, which posseses a power to bring back 7 other pkunk crews including him/her/itself.

But to amaze us even more... what if the crew was 'drained' by the syreen song... how did they come back to the ship?

Hm....

Good reasoning. But I sometimes wonder how they bring the ship back as well...seeing as how it was reduced to subatomic particles and spread throughout the sector.

Or maybe the Hallelujah burst also provides a means for a Pkunk to self-propogate wildly...

*blinks* They have Mycon DNA?!

Actually the hippy birdies probably wildly propagate anyway. They've got to make up the losses to the Ilwrath somehow!

And besides...all that groovy herb they are smokin' frees their inhibitions! *naughty, naughty* Wink
