Thanks! Be sure to watch our GitHub page. We keep talking about doing another release; I think compiling on Windows might be holding us up a little, but we'd like to put out version 2.0 soon.

Well, I applaud this enhanced version. However this strategy game is far more difficult than it really needs to be. So for me, the best part is the neat intro music which I recorded with my iPhone and then converted it to mp3. Now I got a nice tune to listen too instead of tearing my hair out over this game :)

Excellently enhanced game play. BARIS is a game ive been playing for decades, first on diskette then cd rom. Now I can put away the cd and play on my dell quad core win xp system! This is so great, the graphics and sound are so much better because this version plays better than the cd version. The new enhancements with colors in the astronaut stats are so handy to have! This Race into Space is so smooth now! Thank you Thank you so very much for creating it. Sincerely Dave Hosford I apologize for accidently putting a thumbs down on my previous review. I didnt see its selection.
