Take the helm of a starship as you explore, blast or trade your way through the cosmos in a procedurally generated sandbox universe where every tile matters. Use your ship to explore unknown star systems, become a pirate preying on trade routes or do work for the military as your fate is in your own hands.
Key Features:
Every object is made up of tiles, which can be destroyed, created or changed allowing for very tactical combat
Procedurally generated universe — Enter a different seed and each universe is different
Multiple factions — Each with a dozen or more starships
Near-real Newtonian physics allowing for a better space-like experience — Use a tractored ship as a shield against attacks or use it to smash into the enemy
Ship customization — Change the color of the tiles of your ship for the ultimate in self-expression (coming soon)
Trade system — Have a bunch of stuff you don't want? Travel to a nearby tradepost and sell it, or buy that crucial upgrade you need (coming soon)
