Anyone interested in trying out Artemis Spaceship Bridge Simulator[0]? I've got a copy, and the licensing terms allow one full bridge crew per copy (6 players). It's "Windows only", but there are instructions for getting it up and running under OS X[1], and it apparently works on Linux with Wine 1.3.

Im totally excited to play Artemis! Though I've tried to get it running under wine with no success. The demo version is only 1.4 while the full version is 1.6-something with apparently some bug fixes. Are you saying I can run your full version while Im at the hackathon? Id love to try it out.

From their FAQ:

▶ Q: $40 bucks? Out of the question!!!!

A: The full version of Artemis is available for $40, and can be instantly downloaded. This purchase gives you the right to copy and install the game onto every computer of your bridge (up to 6). So I'm really only asking for less than $7 per bridge station ($14 if you can only find two buddies), and there's no copy protection or complicated systems or limits. I just ask that you share with your bridge crew, and not the whole world. This purchase comes with a 100% money-back guarantee. If you don't like the game, just ask for a refund, and it will be cheerfully provided. Think of it this way; you can get every crew member to chip in $7, OR you can buy the game yourself and say, "I paid for it, so I get to be the captain!"
