About the Game

You are the manager of a rising freight company in this strategy-infused management sim. Choose the best cargo deals, plan your routes, and keep your fleet running smoothly — from fueling and repairs to tugboat rentals or sailing your own ships.

Strategy

Time-limited deliveries offer higher payouts but carry stiff penalties for late shipping. Safer contracts provide steady, reliable income. Choosing the right balance is key to maximizing profits and expanding your fleet efficiently.

A gamified take on shipping and trade simulation.

Inspired by real-world maritime commerce, this game focuses on approachable systems and enjoyable play over strict realism. Figures are balanced for gameplay, mechanics are simplified, and docking takes just 30 seconds to 5 minutes, letting you experience the essence of the journey without the long waits of real-world operations.

Maneuvering

You can save money by steering ships yourself instead of hiring tugboats, but be careful, because ship repairs can be costly. If you damage your ship too much, you might send it into the abyss.

Features

  •  Keep ships fueled, repaired, and ready for the next haul.

  • Rent tugboats or take the helm yourself.

  • Optional sailing in a top-down 2D look with 3D-rendered ships and environments.

  • 38 Dock layouts inspired by real places.

  • 4 different hull types: General, Bulk, Container and Tanker (RoRo also planned).

  • Each sailing session (docking / departure / etc) is designed to be completable in under 3 minutes.

  • Native Steam Deck compatible (controller + touch screen).
