About This Demo

ABOUT THIS GAME

D.R.I.F.T. (Deep Range Independent Freight and Trade) is an open-world space simulator where you play as an independent pilot navigating a fractured galaxy filled with political tension, unstable economies, and competing factions.

You’re not the chosen hero.
You don’t command a fleet.
You have a ship, your decisions… and the consequences you leave scattered across the stars.

There is no predetermined path. Every jump, every deal, and every contract becomes part of the story you create.

A LIVING, REACTIVE UNIVERSE

Markets shift.
Factions evolve.
Rumors spread across stations.
Events unfold with or without you.

Each system can change.
Each journey can surprise you.

CORE GAMEPLAY (DEMO)

• Contracts & Jobs

Transport cargo, assist stranded ships, mine asteroids, or dive into free trade.
Every job brings risks, rewards, and changes to your reputation.

• Dynamic Trade System

Buy low, sell high, track market fluctuations, and discover profitable routes—or take dangerous contracts for bigger payouts.

• Exploration

Travel through interconnected star systems via Jumpgates and face the uncertainty of the unknown.

• Ship & Resource Management

Energy, CPU, modules, fuel—your ship is your lifeline.
One bad decision can leave you drifting.

• Factions & Reputation

Your actions shape access to stations, special contracts, and even travel routes. Allies matter.

• Constant Risk

The void is unforgiving.
A failed delivery or a hostile encounter can change everything.

⭐ WHAT MAKES D.R.I.F.T. UNIQUE

Instead of a linear campaign, D.R.I.F.T. gives you true freedom:

• Focus on trading, mining, smuggling—or wander through systems chasing opportunities.

• Meaningful choices through a deep faction reputation system.

• Completely emergent gameplay—every playthrough is different.

• A universe that evolves even when you’re not there.

The appeal isn’t “finishing the story.”
The appeal is surviving, thriving, and building your own path among the stars.
