About this game
Praise for CGA Trek "An absolute masterpiece... I hate to say it may be the best thing you've ever done" -- SpaceGameJunkie "Pure fun, that's gold these days" -- fernadolv3 "wow, the dialog, this is amazing, way beyond expectations" -- best luke Introduction Cyan Alert!

CGA Trek is a homage to the " Trek " game (sometimes known as Star Trek , Super Star Trek , Space War or Starkill) that originated on mainframe computers in the 1970s, inspired by the innovative PC version from the late 1980s called EGA Trek . Like Riker and his transporter clone Thomas, or Tuvix, it is simultaneously a demake and remake. It aims to be a faithful recreation of the basic gameplay but in a modern, accessible, fun package. I wanted something with strong art direction so I picked the austere and beautiful 4-colour CGA palette of early 1980s computing. Features Your very own starship equipped with many systems, including teletransmatporters. The alpha quadrant as an 8x8 grid containing 64 sectors. Each sector is an 8x8 grid of locations Starbases (general, research and weapon depots) Planets (with away missions) Enemy ships A scenario designer with five difficulty settings Authentic 1980s computer voice Great 8bit music Beautiful, beautiful CGA graphics - 4 colours - using the light magenta/light cyan palette at 320x200 resolution. A bunch of surprises for fans of the genre. Let me know in the Steam forum if there are any accessibility tweaks I can provide to make this a great experience for you. History In 1971, Mike Mayfield wrote the game " Star Trek" for his local university's computer on punch tape. The game was designed to be played via a printer instead of screen. In the 1970s, with no hard drives or floppy discs, code was often distributed in magazines and other publications. Hobbyists would read the code off paper and type it into their computer to play it. It was this way that the code for " Star Trek " spread quickly in the computer world with variations and implementations popping up all over the place. One programmer wrote in the introduction to their version that "there have probably b…
