Starship Intruder

Bought this game after seeing a few positive reviews. Was left extremely disappointed. To start off, the controls are awkward and opaque. Many commands you'd expect to work, do not: e.g. "fire bolt" works, but "fire bolts" does not, even though the weapon is listed as "bolts" in the UI. There is no in-game help to give you an indicator of what commands are available, you just need to try typing commands randomly until you find the right combination. The gameplay is extremely basic, with your ship just moving through the 9-spaced grid sector and firing on enemy ships when they get close enough. The presentation is ok, with the exception of part of the main menu being blurred, while everything else is rendered pixel-perfect. This is the sort of game you'd expect to find on itch priced as pay-what-you-want, not as a 10 USD full priced title on Steam.

A bizarre smash up of star trek bridge crew and typing of the dead. You need to carefully manage you ammo and prioritize between maneauvering attacking and defending, each action requiring a lengthy string to be typed perfectly. Very original concept great for booting up when you just feel like playing for a short session

It is an interesting game by typing command to control your startship. You will control your spacecraft to fly in the universe , equip weapons, and shoot at the enemy. This game requires you to have clear decision-making and typing speed, which is a new and different game experience. I also love the background music. It recalls my memory when I was child and played PC game like this. :)

First off the bat - I have never played anything like this before; controlling a space game with typing commands. Disclaimer: I only use Steam for the new Red Alert: Remastered, but I learned of this game on FB. You'll have to like the following to enjoy the game: 1 bit graphics and typing. You'll die a lot at first, but you will find a method to the madness and learn to use commands and when to use what weapons. I usually take out everything in a level and then raid the planet.

First command I typed... crash. Tried again... crash. Refund please! Too bad... Really looks like something I'd like. Btw. if you think this is something you'd like (if it would work), download EGATREK for free. It's old, but it's still great.
