A downloadable game for Windows

This is a simple game made in my custom 3D Engine that draws it's graphics to the windows Command Prompt. The game is very loosely based on the original Elite. Everything was made by me except for the really low level console interactions.

It isn't really a game, it's more like a tech-demo, but it is fully playable.

How to play it

For the best experience use the Square font

If you want to use a different font, modify the Font option in assets/Settings.txt

Make sure that the assets folder is located in the same directory as where you launch the executable from.

I would suggest you take a look at assets/Settings.txt for things like graphics or mouse settings before playing.
