From 9ccf951473e21a8b90c25161156fa09a9b227a7b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: skylar Date: Wed, 11 Nov 2026 15:24:37 -0800 Subject: Orrery 0.1.0: the galaxy, flight, cities, inventory and saves Grows the derelict crawler into the whole game, and gets it ready to publish. - A galaxy of star systems joined by lanes, split between four peoples' territories, with a star map and a system map. Systems are modelled with Kepler orbits, moons inside their Hill spheres, belts past the frost line and stations at Lagrange points. - Flight around one place at a time: arcade flight with a throttle fallback where held keys can't be detected, mining rocks for ore, landing, docking at stations, and boarding wrecks that come and go by the calendar. - Your ship to walk about, and capital cities to land at: generated plans with walls, quarters and streets, building interiors, shops, taverns, scholars and armourers. - Fighting with a weapon and a gun ready, six damage types and how each monster takes them, and armour that guards, wears and can be mended. - Everything you own has a weight: a vim-keyed inventory, a pack and the ship's lockers, and trade in ore, salvage, arms and fuel. - Characters with a people and a ship of their own, saved as versioned JSON on every scene change and on quit, with a character sheet, a saves list and a pause menu wherever you are. - `orrery weapons`, `armour`, `galaxy`, `system` and `town` print the generators' output without the TUI. - Release: README install steps for macOS and Linux, a Makefile whose install also works with macOS's install, an MIT licence, and Cargo metadata with rust-version 1.88.
