@jscholes If I ever finish the basics, the thing I'm aiming for, probably in 70 years or so, is a singleplayer trade wars/elite style space game. Planetary exploration, trading, combat, procedurally generated galaxy, etc. All the stuff we have in that style is either multiplayer PVP, or only semi-accessible like smugglers5. Interface via console menus, because that feels both simple and retro. But with stuff happening in realtime like textspaced used to be (it's now discontinued), and high quality sound. The idea is you just let it run on your taskbar and check in every 20-30 minutes when you hear something that needs doing. So kind of casual all-day play while multitasking. I've dreamed of something like that for like 20 years, but nobody has done anything even close. Textspaced was the nearest, but it never quite got there, and it's gone, now.
