    I saw the price drop and just had to buy the app after hearing so much positive buzz surrounding it.

    I got Space Miner for $2.99 and it's my second favorite game, but only by a hair. Definitely a must buy game and a no-brainer for $.99.

    Just bought it for 4.99 hours before it went to 0.99. Great game worth the money but put it on sale for lets say 2.99 would make me feel better,

    If I remember correctly, the intro price was $3, thats when I got it
     
  7. Yeah, I got it at the intro price and I still felt like I got a steal and a half. It's one of the few games I'm still playing, and the last update with the 3GS-enhanced graphics just made it even better, what with the new license levels and gear and prettier graphics for 3rd-gen devices. $0.99 is the deal of the month -- last month and this. Anyone who hasn't grabbed it would be squirrel-chucking nuts not to get it now.

    Space Miner is currently the 27th top selling game listed on the aussie store, getting closer towards the top ten!

    Just picked this game up. It's amazing and the $0.99 price tag feels like highway robbery.

    I was previously holding off on it because I don't particularly like space sims, nor RPGs. However, the main gameplay is like a deeper version of asteroids, and the RPG stuff is actually really well written and charming. This is really really worth it. If there's anyone else out there like me (who just didn't really find the concept interesting), I'd recommend giving it a shot. The production values are top notch, the writing is great, the gameplay is kind of retro-tinted and addictive and there are a ton of upgrade options/ships.

    I love this game. Everything about it is top notch, and the .99 it's at right now is an absolute steal. I highly recommend it to anyone on the fence, even if you're not usually a fan of space games.
     
  13. Follow the arrows on your HUD to each station. To save time, stop close enough to the station to activate it while you shoot the robots. When it's activated move on to the next one. Don't stop to mine or shoot down stray mining bots, you can come back to that later, just keep following point to point activating each station until all 5 are activated and Uncle Jeb is safe.

    This is probably a stupid question, but how do I save? I didn't see any manual-save option, so I assumed it autosaved, but when does it autosave?

    What I saw is that it always auto save. If you quit mid-game, you'll return to that game and if you quit during a conversation, you'll return to the beginning of the conversation*...

    Thanks for the response. I understand that it is a quick venture through this sector just to activate the stations but whatever the blue bar (upper left hand side) is, it drains sooo quickly that I can only get to the second station and then.... DEAD!!. Is there something that I can do to pump up my ability to sustain this sector a bit better?
