D.R.I.F.T.
( Deep Range Independent Freight and Trade )
A slow-paced space simulation focused on contracts, reputation, and systemic decision-making.
Operate within a living galaxy that reacts to your actions.
Contracts, Not Quests
You don’t follow a story.
You accept contracts.
Reputation determines prices, access, and opportunities.
The system reacts. It doesn’t adapt to you.
D.R.I.F.T. is:
Slow and deliberate
System-driven
Contract-based
Reputation-focused
D.R.I.F.T. is NOT:
An action game
A narrative-driven experience
A power fantasy
"The galaxy doesn’t care if you succeed"
