Description

Star Patrol is the second Pocket Option minigame created as a tribute to the $2.95 hex & counter games from the 70s and 80s. In Star Patrol, you design and build customized ships using a ship frame, weapons, and special technological breakthroughs to give each design a unique play style. Ships are designed and built in secret, with weapons and upgrades remaining secret until each is used for the first time. The variety of mounts, ships, weapons, and upgrades gives players thousands of possible builds. Opponents duel in a deep space arena that may include asteroids, moons, and planets. Gameplay uses Newtonian space flight mechanics, including gravity wells, linear acceleration, orientation thrusts, and inertia.
