David Braben said in an interview with PC Gamer in 1995: ''"The idea with First Encounters was to take the bits that worked out of Frontier and make them better. In a sense, the game is a platform for adventures. The way the game's put together, there are similarities.

''"It's taking, fundamentally, the same idea - you are in space and given a space ship - but at each stage more and different things have been added.
