Oolite inspired "game" in Ren'Py

So, I'm not really much of a gamer, and it's been years since I've played any Oolite. Since my days in the space lanes I've become a very avid Python programmer, and came across this visual novel/game system based on Python called Ren'Py. To teach myself more about it, I made a game loosely inspired by Oolite. It's not finished, but it's playable. Feel free to take a look. I know the numbers need changed to be more balanced. I'm open to suggestions on that. How should I properly credit the use of a couple of ship images from the wiki?

Enjoy

Oolite as a visual novel - interesting idea. I feel like for an idea like this to be fun, there will need to be plenty of narrative so that it's something akin to a choose your own adventure book.
