I know this was asked a while ago, but I think it got lost in all the apiarist-space prostitue-Starpoint talk...

Okay, I'm confused if this is an attempt to respond rudely to a reasonable comparison question.  Certainly, referencing space beekeepers of questionable morals is a bit over-the-top, but then the misspelling really takes the wind out of it's (solar) sails.

What I had thought was my better judgement caused me to edit "whore" to "prostitute."  My pained attempt to sound more gentile apparently resulted in a misspelling.  Next time, I'll stick to my gut.

By the way, I believe you meant its (solar) sails, not "it's."

Anyhow, I just felt that beekeeping and whoring sound like a very dangerous combination, whether on earth or beyond.  I couldn't go without trying to express my dissent.

No argument about the dangers of at least space beekeeping (Sword of the Stars comes to mind), but not clear on your dissent, nor the metaphorical vehemence behind it.

I believe you mean gentle and not "gentile" :P

Yeah- also, 20 bucks US makes price a weak purchase deterrent.

If you like these type of games and can deal with the fact it is a 2d-ish setup you can't beat the fun and hours for $20 bucks. I'm still working the story with great amounts of side missions making credits to improve my ship's toys. The Dev team is supporting it really well and they have been very active on the Steam forums and still doing minor tweaks and bug updates to polish game play. Jumping back into my Aluminum Falcon to do a B&E job to get a required special item. Much carnage to ensue.  >:D

So how did you get so lucky to get a copy:)  Was it a review copy or was there some kind of early beta access for folks?

Very nice:)  You and the Mrs. certainly have me interested in this game for sure...I really enjoyed the two different view points from you both.
