About

Elite is a 1984 space trading game for the BBC Micro by David Braben and Ian Bell, notable for its open-ended gameplay and revolutionary 3D graphics that made it a genre-defining classic. TriSpace is an Elite-like space game built for the FunKey S handheld console, featuring procedurally generated star systems, space combat, ship upgrades, and contracts. It ships its own procedural-generation system for content rather than reusing any original assets, and is built using the TinyGL rendering library adapted for the FunKey's 16-bit color hardware.

Getting started

Controls use the D-pad for ship movement, A to fire weapons, B for missiles, X/Y to accelerate or decelerate, Start to switch to the starmap, Select to activate autodocking, and L/R to switch tabs while docked at a station.
