My cutty Paul got me hooked.  This was the first Massively Multiplayer Online game I&#8217;d played.  I still remember soliciting for players to join my frequency and attack the little area in the lower right.<\/p>\n<p>You get to pick one of 8 ships, each of which has it&#8217;s strengths and weaknesses.  It is a 2D overhead view.  There are different &#8220;zones&#8221;.  Each zone has different gameplay and even ship attributes.  I remember you used to be able to play in the amature areas for free until your character gained too many points&#8230;at which point, you would simply make a new character and continue to play for free&#8230;hehe.<\/p>\n<p>Good news is, this game continues on as freeware!  It&#8217;s now called <a title=\"continuum\" href=\"http:\/\/www.subspacedownloads.com\/\">continuum<\/a>&#8230;the name changed, but everything else stayed the same.  I generally run around in trenchwars and hangout in whatever the secondary pub is&#8230;pub 0 is for chumps \ud83d\ude09 hehe.  Trechwars is basically team domination, centered around a small castle shaped fortress.  The Terrier(ship 5) is something of the mothership in TW.  Players can attach to the terrier and become a turret on it.  You then disconnect from being a turret and now you have warped yourself to where the terrier is.  Soooo, you try and get your terrier in the base, then everyone attaches and attacks&#8230;and a good time is had by all. Look me up, &#8220;BuSy_keniff&#8221;.  I checked my usage and I&#8217;ve only logged 120ish hours since early 2000s \ud83d\ude1b<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_886\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-886\" style=\"width: 1280px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-886\" title=\"screenshot5 copy\" src=\"http:\/\/gregsowell.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/10\/screenshot5-copy.jpg\" alt=\"subspace 4 life\" width=\"1280\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gregsowell.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/10\/screenshot5-copy.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/gregsowell.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/10\/screenshot5-copy-300x187.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gregsowell.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/10\/screenshot5-copy-1024x640.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-886\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">subspace 4 life<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I remember being introduced to subspace right around the time it was released&#8230;I must have been 14-15, give or take.
