very good
nice use of the ships from the star trek armada games,this must have taken ages to code well done.

The ships are not from Star Trek Armada. They are from freely distributed animated gifs. And yes, it took many months to program this game :)
Glitchy, but great!
Wow, this is a pretty fun game. Decent graphics, interesting design and concept.. nicely done!
I played the game fairly extensively, and noticed a few glitches. The most annoying was that my Speed seemed to suddenly operate only at about a max of 80% efficiency if I rested in one spot with 0 thrust for too long. This prevented my undamaged ship from engaging in warp speed, and essentially hamstrung me.
Also, when I swooped down on the Romulan station with a fleet of 9 Daedalus ships, they all just sat there doing nothing as I ate disrupter fire like Marlon Brando at a seafood buffet.
Lastly, I found it irritating that even if I had only ONE torpedo left, I was unable to pick up torpedo upgrades floating around in space [not sure what they're doing out there in the first place!]. I had to eject my existing torpedo(s) to pick up the new ones. Perhaps this isn't such a nuissance, but it seemed to me like there should be an easier way to restock weapons.
Keep up the good work! Please continue tweaking this game, it was fun.

If ships are escorting you they may not attack the enemy base unless they are in visual range. If you fly around the enemy base and flank it, your escorts will follow you and will engage once they get into range. Its sometimes easier to fly right beyond the base and come back to it, so any distant escorts will engage.
A decent play
It could have used a bit more instructions -- it took me a few deaths to figure out how to gather resources and deposit them at the station, since there's nothing about how to do that anywhere in the game. Nice interaction and fairly fun play, though.
holy crap hard
great game, but a little too hard. in less than 30 seconds, 2 romulan ships decloaked next to me, blew the crap outta my engines and weapons, and killed me. never even got a cchance to get a few resources.
not bad.
It was quite good. i liked it.
