Star Couriers - inspired by FTL (Faster than Light)

BTW, totally following with interest. You had me at AI...and space...and adventure...and-forget it

Glad you're keen.

Version 0.03 is released on itch.io:

https://togfox.itch.io/space-couriers

Password = ftl

It's playable. No sound. Rough graphics. Some text place holders. Unbalanced.

But playable.

Version 0.04 is released on itch (for free).

I have to say, this is coming very feature complete - it excites even me. I have many many many months of graphics overhaul to do but the game is playable (but unbalanced) and that's such a cool feeling.

It's only me, or game have some memory leaks?

It's entirely possible. Would love to know how to detect and fix.

Could those just be images? I haven't converted single images into sprite sheets yet.

I don't know why, but it happens only when i open game via exe file, if i open that with unpacked source (via pointing to main.lua, not .love archive) it works as it intendent

Could you build for Linux as well?

Could you build for Linux as well?

Well, you can simply unzip archive with game and then (again) unzip .exe file
So you can make it .love and run or run from main.lua
