About This Demo

A strategy/4X game where you take over space, made by hotshot game developer Gideon Kennedy of Gerrymap fame.

Spaceman's Luck is like lightning crystallized into a video game. Designed to be fast and easy to play, it shuns classic principles of the genre (being boring and sucking) and embraces 4V: Vitality, Vigor, Virtue, and Virility.

You colonize space, while trying to expand in the most Advantageous way. You go from star to star, and each one has planets. Some planets are Really Good, others Aren't. Some stars are Far, and others Close. Do I need to say more...?

This is where the patented Luck mechanic comes in. A good Spaceman's Luck will allow you to win somewhat easily, and a bad Spaceman's Luck will kill you in real life.

There are four default races representing the Tremendous Diversity of this wonderful Galaxy (and the 4 V's): the Humans, Space Elves, Space Orcs, and Space Ants. Each has their own Strengths and Weaknesses. You can make your own race, also.

Do you have a Spaceman's Luck?
