Ascii And You Shall Receive
Chris Knudsen has released another update to his exciting Ascii Sector project. The new version has added five star systems, eight bases and the ability to hire wingmen. A reference map of the Crimson Quadrant has also been made available. Like previous releases, version 0.2 is designed for DOS/Windows, but it should run fine on other operating systems with the help of DOSBox. You can download the game here (750 KB).0.2 - October 18th, 2007
