2D Space Trading Game, you can colonize planets and trade resources and other boring stuff like that.

Gameplay Instructions here
http://www.metalmonkeygames.com/warspace/

It's a 2mb zip file, you should be able to just unzip and play it.

If it doesn't work, please post here and i'll try and fix it.

Yeah, i'll do that, my bad.

In the next version it will write the error to a text file which will tell me what went wrong.

Most likely the problem would be it requires the .NET Framework 3.5.

My ship is capable of Warp 5. However, I can only get it to Mach 1. How do I enable Warp Speed?

Could it a problem with the Gravity Capacitor?

Thanks for playing.

At the moment i'm deciding if I want to stick with offline and change it to XNA for better performance, or change it to use silverlight and make it an online game.

Probably the latter, online would be more fun. I'll probably have it so a group of people, 4 or 5 can play together.


As for the game play, I want to make changes like number of people affecting the efficiency of buildings, so you'll have to transfer people from other planets. Building/operating buildings will be slow if you don't have enough people to run them etc.

If you ever run out of ideas or anything with Warspace, give Majest of Omega a look

http://majestyofomega.codeplex.com/

Absolutely incredible. Shame it doesnt do anything just yet

Edit: Im not saying that you should give up, I just think that Warspace could easily do everything Majesty of Omega does except with a much friendlier interface
