Power up your craft (by collecting green and blue bits and blobs) with innovations like slow-motion, super bombs, lock-on lasers, and the ability to move vertically. (Windows only)

Transcendence, the outer space exploration/trading/shoot 'em up, has hit
version .99. I cannot begin to tell you how much time I sunk into previous releases -- the Nethackish randomness, both in the layout of the systems to explore, and the mysterious devices and substances to apply to your ship in hope of an extra edge, makes the replay value immense.
RGCD has a glowing review and an interview with the developer. (
Mentioned but not actually linked to earlier.)
