About This Content

Captain your own starship in this 2D, open-world space-sim. Explore, trade, mine, smuggle, steal and fight your way across the milky-way galaxy with real-time, tactical combat.

The Loadstar soundtrack was composed using audio trackers and 4 channel samples for a retro Amiga/16bit era sound.

• Raise shields, distribute power, target enemy systems, power up the jump drives to escape or talk your way out of trouble with pausable, real-time tactical combat

• Explore a huge open-world galaxy combining prodcedurally generated and hand crafted elements

• Upgrade your starship and change its configuration to balance, attack, defence, speed, cargo capacity and jump range or buy new larger starships

• Trade your way to profit with a dynamic economy which rewards clever planning and risks, not milk-runs

• Uphold the law as a bounty hunter or break it as a pirate or smuggler

• Chill out with some laid-back asteroid mining or running a leisure cruise
