"Hard Nova (1990) was a CRPG by Malibu Software for PC platforms like MS-DOS. It's considered the spiritual successor to 1988's Sentinel Worlds I: Future Magic, only this time, you pick which mercenary you want to be, explore space, and eventually save a race from extinction! (mini thread)"

"A shot of Hard Nova's space travel interface. Your ship was in the center and could run into other vessels, recieve messages, and discover planets. A mini radar was located to the right above the fuel counter and a text screen was displayed above the main viewport showing items of information such as who might want to talk to you."

"A shot from the introduction of the game shows an alien looking on as a cloaked figure standing atop a flight of stairs between two ancient-looking columns is silhouetted by a moon behind them against a reddish sky. This was a hint of something alien and exotic far beyond the worlds of Hard Nova that would eventually make itself known."
