here are some examples:
|
|

|
|
||||||
What features should I include in my game?
|
|
||||||
Where should i start development?
|
|
||||||
What are my priorities?
|
|
||||||
What if I run out of time?
|
|
||||||
When should I stop?

**Synopsis**
|
||||||
|
Space ship gets damaged in combat and makes an emergiency crash landing in a astroid field
|
||||||
|
The space ship is unrecoverable, but luckily the reactor is still squeezing out enough power to power life support and the very limited 3d printer. Your task is to bootstrap a new factory and construct a new ship. But be warned, the threat that shot you down assumed your ship is dead.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
_Any activity will begin to draw their attention.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Start of game**
|
||||||
|
Crashed ship in middle of astroid field.
|
||||||
|
Ship has enough power to drive a miner and its internal 3d printer.
|
||||||
|
Use the ships maintinance drones to scavange parts of the ship and construct your first miner drone and task it to start collecting resources.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Progression**
|
||||||
|
- Basic Bootstrap: Get a few mining drones and construct a bigger 3d printer outside your ship
|
||||||
|
Ship computer was damaged so you only have access to limited blueprints.
|
||||||
|
- Construct drone controll towers to increase the range of drones.
|
||||||
|
- Construct bigger miners to ramp up yield, phasing out drones, which now can focus on construction/repair/maintainance.
|
||||||
|
- Mining buildings consume lots of power so you need a new reactor.
|
||||||
|
- Need more miners to fuel reactors.
|
||||||
|
- When you have collected enough rare minerals you can construct new computer parts and use those to repair parts of the ship computer that stores blueprints. (Tech Research)
|
||||||
|
- After a certain amount of activity the enemy starts sending scouts. warning the player it needs to build counter measures.
|
||||||
|
- Wave based combat determined by activity. High energy output and drilling results in bigger and more frequent waves.
