Features:
- Physics based ship combat: The combat and ship movement is 100% physics based. Booster placement, distribution of weight and stabilizers all play a huge factor in how effective your ship is in combat.
- Block based ship design: Build your ship from the ground up block by block to create the ultimate spaceship. In game, your ship is completely destructible so the design of your ship has a massive influence on your chances of survival.
- Strong focus on replayability: The starmap, and battle locations are completely randomly generated to ensure every playthrough is unique. Each starmap is filled with a huge variety of events, factions and space stations. Locations are generated so no battle plays out the same.
- A copious amount of events to come across in your journey: As you make your way to the gateway, the exit from the system you will come across events; the choices you make regarding these tails of love and loss directly influence crew mood.
- Each playthrough is a epic journey: Events combined with crew mood (a measure of how well your journey is going) create amazing tails of friendship and betrayal. Crew will help when their mood is high, but hinder you when their mood is low.
