It's a dangerous mission, with every encounter presenting a unique challenge with multiple solutions. What will you do if a heavy missile barrage shuts down your shields?

This "spaceship simulation roguelike-like" allows you to take your ship and crew on an adventure through a randomly generated galaxy filled with glory and bitter defeat. Key Features: - Give orders to your crew, manage ship power distribution and choose weapon targets in the heat of battle. - Pause the game mid-combat to evaluate your strategy and give orders. - Upgrade your ship and unlock new ones with the help of seven diverse alien races. - Hundreds of text based encounters will force you to make tough decisions. - Each play-through will feature different enemies, events, and results to your decisions. No two play-throughs will be quite the same. - Permadeath means when you die, there's no coming back. The constant threat of defeat adds importance and tension to every action.
