About the Game

Take on the role of a starship mechanic and pay off the immense debt your father left behind. Craft components, build starships, and take contracts from factions. Follow events across the galaxy, and pay the debt before the deadline. 

Start by salvaging broken items for parts, then craft them into basic components. Unlock more advanced components and new starship blueprints, then build ships of your own.

Take contracts from rival factions, racing pilots, desperate strangers, or big shots across the galaxy. Each job builds your reputation, pays toward the debt, and pulls you into their stories.

Pour your earnings back into the workshop. Upgrade workstations and unlock underground hangar floors to build, repair, patch, and replace broken parts on starships.  Restore the workshop to its former glory.

Uncover the truth behind your father's disappearance and the debt he left you. Earn the trust of rival factions, choose who to stand with, and shape how your story ends. All the while, a living galaxy moves around you, with elections, races, and conflicts unfolding in the news whether you take part or not.
