About
The full version of Weird Worlds: Return to infinite space is available on GOG.COM. You can purchase it here
Weird Worlds: Return to Infinite Space is a hybrid "roguelike" game of space exploration and starship combat set within a peculiar, as-yet-unvisited region of the galaxy known as the Purple Void. Each time it is played, a new and different "sector prime" and its vast frontier are randomly generated. Locations of stars and nebulae, homeworlds of alien races, distribution of lifeforms and artifacts, plot-twisting quest events--the whole game is remixed.
Note that unlike common roguelikes that last dozens of hours, Weird Worlds: Return to Infinite Space plays to its conclusion in less than thirty minutes - it's the perfect lunch break game! Features also include a fully animated star map, a unique turn-based movement system, real-time starship battles (at naval battle speeds, not "Super-Melee"), award-winning music and sound, and a robust battle simulator. Weird Worlds also has built-in support for community-created mods that can change anything and everything in the game!
Windows 10 users: If you're experiencing mouse issues, right click the launch icon or shortcut and set compatibility mode to Windows 8.
A couple of words from the game creator:
Want to know more about Weird Worlds? There's quite a lot despite the apparent small size of the game: mini-plots, back stories, oddball references galore, subtle and hidden clues, rare events, interesting things to do, what to use the weirder artifacts for, Easter eggs, exploits, outright spoilers (be warned) and much, much more. Go see! It's a blast to read.
