How does your game fit the theme?
I wasn't intentionally applying the Up in the Clouds theme - but it's Star Trek... it's out there ;)

Thank you for this, this is the version I played. It's a neat game. These old school games are hard! I think I could probably spend a lot of time figuring it out, but I think for a jam entry this is a great effort. Am i right that there is no audio? Was that the case in the original? I never played it so I can't judge but I want to keep playing it, so well done!
yes, there is no sound - I don't think the original had sound - but I only played the remake of the remake... :)
So, this was a high-effort game to try out for me, first to install DOSBox and then to finish a playthrough. But I did it.😄 I'm not familiar with the original, but this seems like a high-effort remake. There's a fair bit of stuff going on and the simulation is very detailed and, for what the 1971 tech style permits, atmospheric. Nice work!
Funnily enough, the first game I ever made from scratch was also a DOS game written in Pascal. It is easily blown out of the water by this one though.
I have DOSBox on Linux here but currently no clue how to load the game into it. Would you be so kind to point me to an instruction on how you did it?
Should just be "dosbox trek'24.exe" from the shell. I installed DOSBox-X if that matters, but I think it shouldn't.
Passing the .conf file to dosbox should be all that is required to start it
e.g. dosbox-x --conf "trek'24.conf"
(Yes, I would expect any variant of DOSBox to be sufficient)

Excellent - I’m glad you managed to finish it :)
If you enjoyed it? I suggest you try Captain Stubing - it’s sort of hard mode (a cruise ship performs worse in space than a starship)
