To all SSC Station occupants

Thank you for the donations over the past year (2024), it is much appreciated. I am still trying to figure out how to migrate the forums to another community software (probably phpbb) but in the meantime I have updated the forum software to the latest version. SSC has been around a while so their is some very long time members here still using the site, thanks for making SSC home and sorry I haven't been as vocal as I should be in the forums I will try to improve my posting frequency.

Thank you again to all of the members that do take the time to donate a little, it helps keep this station functioning on the outer reaches of space.

Literally two minutes navigating the web and I found a new game for all: Stellar Trader 😀

Inspired by Spronk's Space Trader and here is a few shots:

Nice find Songbird. I will add a link to this game on the links page sometime this week. This is like Via Galactica, I think this has a bit more to it. I will play around more with this when I'm not at work 😎

looks TOO MUCH like Space Trader... the author of this game should have instead tried to make Space Trader 2 (Spronk begun the game, released some screenshots, but never finished it)

Well the author did say the idea for the game came from Space Trader. I think this one is a bit more polished and offers more in the way of gameplay. Even if it is close if Spronk never finished the game least someone else made a clone that is pretty complete in functionality?

Too much... nah. If so, then you could get away with noting that Spronk's game is too much like elite, and elite stole from Traveller, and Traveller stole from Poul Anderson and, and... etc.

apples and oranges. Its' a fine game with RPG elements.

I recall see a few screens on Spronk's site, but never a beta or demo.

The developer of Stellar Trader went on a bug hunt. Version 1.00 is now available for download here:

I'll add that the game mentioned at the bottom of the page, "Decker" is a wonderful game too. While not really a space game, it is a cool sci-fi polished game. Give it a try.
