semi-OT: Prospector, roguelike game where no man has gone before... for money

[Francisco Munoz]

 I started playing a nice small space game, Prospector (http://code.google.com/p/rlprospector/)
 You are captain of space ship trying to explore a new galaxy sector. Working as a freelance for a few corporations your aim is to get money enougth to retire.
 Simple and elegant mechanics and all the topics you could found in space exploration makes this game very fun to play.
 It has everything: Unique planets, planet colonies, space pirates and dangerous aliens and robots.
 And if you are tired of the explorer tasks you can always swap sides and go pirate.

 Free Basic GPL source available too.

That looks really cool. No precompiled Linux version, unfortunately.

Runs like a charm with Wine.

Neat. I guess I should try firing up Wine for the first time, then.
