[quote who="Hunam_" reply="1" id="3623209"] Exploration Not sure if top-down here is better. The system in the vid feels too compact. Or the ship speed too great?... I, personally, would prefer like to check out the option where my ship is locked in the middle of the screen bottom facing north and controls would move the system around it.

For the voice overs, I don't have much confidence in my ability to judge. Regarding the art, I'm pretty impressed; I really like the set she's standing in (can we get some extras working in the background though?), and I love the uniform.

Ooh, so it's like a secret society thing? So next time I'm at the Micro Center in Towson, you'll hear my phone ring, and then you'll walk up to me and we'll do a secret handshake, fist-bump, nod silently, and then carry on with our day?
