Privateer Gemini Gold 1.02
Many of us experienced Privateer in the early 90's, the engaging space
piracy and trading game that captured us with mystery and challenges.
Some contemporary efforts tried
bringing back the Privateer joy of years past, but all have been
limited by the blocky 320x200 pixel art in the game. The competing
Gemini Gold has just released a new Open
Source Privateer to all platforms with the inflight and ground art
redone at 800x600 as well as with all the familiar controls that were
baked into the base scenes and immersed the player in the scenes.
Just like the original, you start poor, with an old scout class ship
in a sparsely populated system in the Gemini Sector. As usual, you
must try to get money through various mission assignments from which
you can purchase better ships and upgrades.
It's your choice how to explore Gemini and align with the various
factions, earn your money as a merchant, bounty hunter, traitor or
pirate. Meet Sandoval in a bar on New Detroit and talk to him to
trigger the original campaign and the newer Righteous fire expansion.

While earlier versions were still using low resolution base interiors, we are bringing to you now Privateer for the first time ever in an SVGA resolution with 32 bit color depth. Other important improvents are the recreation of almost all original base computer interfaces and an overall better game balance.
