No wonder you go at this year by year then!

Thanks, igualmente para ti! I guess you meant 2021. Please, no 2020 again.

Hahaha, oh yes, you are right, we would not want 2020 to repeat

Hi Everyone here (after longer time) !

New version of Universe Quest is uploaded on server.

Not much new there, database with missions and rockets was updated with new entries (up to April, 1962).

I'm planning to refocus again more on my other project, RTG, as context switching between projects cost me more time and my internal 'mana' :D than I anticipated. So my next plan is to update Universe Quest less often with smaller updates (mostly DB updates), with RTG renewed as primary project.

Cheers!

Eh, I'm subbed to both devlogs so I win either way

Thx for your interest!

Off topic, but no so off... 3 probes are reaching Mars this month, that's big event in space exploration! 'Hope', Mars orbiter of United Arab Emirates is already in Mars orbit (it reached Mars and performed 'breaking' maneuver (to not overshot past Mars with excessive speed) today). 2 other landers with rovers on board (one from China and one from US) will be landing in next days / weeks!

RTG is such a cool project as well, and it is nice you have the two projects that you can go back and forth between. You should add a terminal to RTG from which the player can access Universe Quest

[JobLeonard]

Ooooh, nice idea!

Thx Alain!

Heh, funny is your idea is perfectly realizable. As both RTG and Universe Quest are based on same engine, I should be able to merge whole UQ into RTG. :D

But your idea is really interesting. Maybe not whole UQ, but as easter egg (which player can easily find) it's doable. Few entries from UQ to promote it.

It recalls me being able to play 'Maniac Mansion 1' from newer 'Day of the Tentacle' adventure game. It was also possible to play old game through computer in new game world.

This was exactly what I was thinking, too

You should definitely do that. Shared universe (pun intended) initialized!
