the original devs were so very close this thing is actually playable (er... sortof Razz - we're filling in the blanks)

Interesting! Cool Do you mean the GUI and the turn-generation too?


Acording to Ken's notes, Nova is playable, albeit in a very basic sense. It does have a working GUI and turn generation, though it is well short of many Stars! features (racial features, MT, random events, an AI). I have tested Nova as far as building ships and colonising planets, but haven't tried out combat or bombing - though those features have certainly been coded after a rudimentary fassion.

Nova is still well short of being ready for Beta testing. There are still many bugs and pecularities that would make it difficult for all but the most persistent player at this stage. However compared to other Stars! clones I have looked at (such as stellar legacy, GStars, free-stars), I would say it is much closer to being a playable game.



Have fun.
