Title: Story

In this golden age of space travel, massive wooden galleons traverse the cosmic winds, fueled by solar sails and ancient machinery.

In this world you are a pirate with nothing left to lose and a galaxy to gain. Your only path to freedom is the great chase: hunt down the most elusive targets and do what you do best - steal all the riches!
