A space colonization parser game with a fun opening sequence, August 1, 2021I remembered this game when I played it during the competition, but I couldn't remember where. Was I a beta tester? No, I wasn't in the credits.
Then I remembered that this was entered into Introcomp! The author has certainly improved the game since then. Back then, it only had the opening and then an empty crater.
This game has you play as a colonist arriving on a planet. The opening sequence is pretty brilliant, similar to the Ian Finley game Gris et Jaune. Unfortunately for both games, they get a little buggy later.
This game has few big bugs in it, like if you type REMOVE [something] it gives an error message with a space missing.
The game is ambitious, though; even though it's not super long, it has changing time, major modifications to locations, an autonomous NPC, and a (Spoiler - click to show)change in perspective.
If the bugs were fixed, I would give this game a 4 or 5, and I think the author didn't something great and should continue coding.
