Solarex - Travel and Explore the Galaxy Files

Solarex is a space exploration game. You start in a stellar system of the inhabited zone, with no freight, a little money and, of course, your ship. You can become a trader, prospector or explorer, or all of them a little bit.

To run Solarex, just download the solarex-0_36.jar. This is an executable jar file. If you have Java 6 or newer installed, a double click on the jar file should start Solarex. If this doesn't work, please check the Wiki:

http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/solarex/index.php?title=Main_Page

At the moment many functions are  only rudimentarily implemented, but you can travel to and explore the stellar systems.
