He had lost his papers and identification and had been waiting on the station for hours. The immigrant in question was waiting alone near the transporter. I walked around the cavernous atrium of the customs depot and agreed. He said it was like when games started giving people map editors and everyone made huge maps because there was no sense of scale. Chris, our pilot, was astounded by the size of the place. It's also where you can find a small marketplace for ship parts and usable items. This appears to be the game's hub, where a few missions are handed out. We had begun our voyage orbiting a customs office in the centre of the galaxy. Our first mission was to get a sandwich for a space immigrant. What kind of missions? Well, I'm glad you asked. But this involves doing missions and getting skill points to add to your own character. Later, you can add skills like "Main turret control" to become a multi-talented part of the crew. For instance, the Weapons officer can use the powerful main turret but if anyone else cosies up to this machine it will reject them for not having the right skill. Some of the roles have skills that the others don't. But even if you don't fill a role, you can add a bot to the team. sciences? It's a little unclear what the Science officer does to be honest. Meanwhile, the Weapons officer keeps the turrets going and the Science officer.

The Captain barks orders, the Engineer keeps an eye on the machinery, the Pilot swerves about helplessly in space. You clamber aboard a ship with a team of up to 5 players, each assuming a role with their own spiffing space jersey. PULSAR is a game that could be described as "multiplayer first-person FTL", a genre blend that ought to get thousands of people murdering each other for a copy. Well done, weapons officer Pip! That's exactly the kind of initiative we foster aboard the We're Very Sorry.įirstly, some explanation. And of course Pip, who shoots guns at empty space.

As captain, I can vouch for my crew with the highest sincerity. It's mission: to get lost in space and try not to die. Will the crew become famous throughout the galaxy? Or will they die in a fiery blaze of unimportance? Read on to find out!

Only this time, he has a team of cohorts helping him out in PULSAR: Lost Colony. He has decided to go into deep space ( again). Hello everybody! Rob is away so Brendan has been drafted in to prematurely evaluate this week.
