Prospector is a rogue like space game, if you don't like ASCII, gtfo now.
In an unexplored sector of space humanity is trying to establish a permanent presence. Megacorporations employ freelance prospectors to find exploitable resources and map unknown planets for them. The player will get to command one of those scoutships, trying to become filthy rich as a prospector.
Prospector is a game where you are in control of a ship, you control your crew, hire or fire anyone you choose, You explore planets outside of the ship, fight aliens and robots and even be a space pirate!

Mini thread complete, more will be added later.
Note: Game is fun like Dwarf Fortress, you will die a lot.
Media tags didn't work, what the hell?
changes from current version:
[code]nted to do several more things, but since some bugs in 0.1.9 can kill you, i decided to let 0.1.10 out already.
(Not to mention that i have been promising it for 2 weeks now)
Here is what happened:
* 3 new alien artifacts
* 2 new ways to die
* 3 new goods to trade
* several new modules to add to your ship
* 1 new unique planet
* cosmetics:
Tiles that require jetpacks or hoverplatforms to pass get a background color
Reptiles are now L(izards) to distinguish them from R(obots)
Upper case Monsters have more HP, color depends on Armor, Red monsters have weapon>2
* Balancing:
Asteroid mining yields more resources,
Wormholes do less damage,
Live animals get a bonus
upped chance for gold/dark yellow monsters(still the strongest standard critters)
* Fixed 2 Unique Planets
* Stock market bugs fixed
* Pirate refit is now buyable and actually works
* some item bugs & typos fixed
* forgot to add descriptions for the 5 new unique planets
* 4 of the new uniques could cause wierdness on the map. Fixed
* if your ship lands on critters it hurts them
* found a bunch of tiles that should have been shootable yet were not
* managed to fight savegame bloat a little

How come there's no bloom

Needs more gray and brown
You gotta get the bumpmaps before you get the bloom and brown, yo.
This game is pretty awesome, I found the planet with the living trees and you get an awesome doctor and a tree crewman to your team too.
I am trying to find a way to mod the game so we can add custom content.
Where are the sexy green aliens with loose sexual morals.
I don't know but my captain went into a bar and didn't want to come out.
I wonder how that worked out because I was obiliterated by elite pirates after that.
Does combat work like X-Com or something?
Sort of.
You press F to fire then 5 to select a target or you can "ram" the creature to attack it.
