Real time fighting, chat and etc. You can have up to 20 players playing the game at the same time. Only 10 players are allowed to play a game in the unregisted version, and up to 100 users after DeepSpace has been registered. If your BBS can't run a Shell/CLI door, we have a Paragon door version too. You can also play DeepSpace locally from a SHELL while other players are playing the game at the same time. FEATURES - Documentation is in Amigaguide format. - Easy to use installation program. - On-line Editor for players, aliens and planets. - Up to 50 definable names for Alien races can be used in a game. FUTURE ENHANCEMENTS We haven't finished everything we originally set out to accomplish with DeepSpace. Here is a few of our version 2 enhancement ideas. - If you go through the BlackHole when it's un-stable (and make it through) you will see the planet 'Praxis'. The players will be able beam to/from the planet. Hostile Mutants, Aliens and on-line players could be on the planet. Different objects could be obtained there, Weapons, Crystals, and Better Scanners? ect.. An example that's being considered: A weapon that can be left at the DeepSpace port, which could be programmed, via DNA scan, to detonate when a certain Explorer arrives at the port. - Gambling at the DeepSpace port. Possibly against other on-line players as well. - The Shap Shifter could be anywhere! Could be selling illegal items from planet Praxis? Could end up in jail with no way out, or will there be a way out? DISTRIBUTION DeepSpace is shareware. It is freely distributable, as long as you distribute all files. Feel free to include it in any public domain collections (i.e. fish disks). REQUIREMENTS Workbench 2.0 or higher. You install DeepSpace with its own installation program. RELEASE DATE May 10, 1994.
