Very nice game! I especially liked how the computer gave me some incorrect recipes and I had to figure it out on my own. Needing to physically move my character everywhere did get a bit tedious, but I feel like it also increased the immersion. Super charming and fun!
Sometimes labour is cheaper than automation. Especially when you're talking about Dwarf labour. - Your BenevolentĀ Machine Intelligence Overlords
Space Dwarf is a mash up of FTL and Flippers of Steel with a healthy dose of malicious machine intelligence. You will have to build all the components your ship will need in combat, including missiles, shields and lasers. To be successful you will also haveĀ to manage the load-out while in combat.
Description
Play as a lonely Space Dwarf, who has been floating through space for nigh 200 years. Even as you finally approach your distant destination things do not seem to be going right. The Machine IntelligenceĀ that runs the ship seems to be becoming more and more extreme. Will you, or any biological life, make it out alive?
