This is as far as you can progress; the game displays the message:
"IF YOU GOT THIS FAR, CONGRATULATIONS. THERE IS A LOT MORE MAP THAT YOU HAVEN'T SEEN, BUT
IT NEEDS TO BE LINKED IN. IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO SEE THE GAME COMPLETED, PLEASE ENCOURAGE THE AUTHOR
TO CONTINUE BY MENTIONING IT ON B7 WEBSITES."
[*]For an alternative and more definitive ending, try PUSH BUTTON on the crippled ship just after
you turn on the torch. Save your progress first though...
