Okey, so I'm gonna assume this is a "crowdfunder" for the other game by the developer, because this is nothing more than a trading simulator heavily inspired by the basic trade interface of David Braben's massively influential "Elite" from 1984, and nothing else. Tested it out for an hour, and not sure much else is implemented outside going back and forth watching numbers go up as you offload goods at each spaceport. Currently, this game is very early access, and it might be that alot more is coming for the game, thou I'm hoping most time is spent in the other title, fleshing it out to an actual game standing on its own two spacelegs, but currently there's not much to do outside bugtesting this one for the developer. For it's price, thats an acceptable deal.6 found this helpful
Really fun little trading simulator, Numbers go up monkey brain happy. Very early access but looking forward to future patches.5 found this helpful
I found the game to be challenging if you selected the discovery mode. Each new planet offer a variety of items which couldn't always be sold at every planet. I jumped around, and the credits went up and down. If you want it less challenging, just write it done. The image and sound effects were very enjoyable. Recommend checking it out, a nice game for casual play.4 found this helpful
Fun space trading sim. Buy and sell good for max profit, upgrade your ship's range, explore the universe!! Fun to explore each location. Highly recommended!2 found this helpful
It's one-dimensional and simplistic. Buy low, sell high and pray. While I'll probably only get 5-10 hours total out of it, the price was right and the nostalgia was real. I'd recommend it as a good office game as you can just walk away and come back to it as needed. Once you learn the prices and figure out the equation it loses a little bit of the magic but it's honestly great for what it is.2 found this helpful
If you ever played Space Trader for PalmOS in the early 2000s, or the later remake Dark Nova for android/ios in the late 2010s then this is finally the start of a game like it for current PCs (I know the original was ported to windows but its hard to find how to get it running and looks like it was only black and white anyway). Epic Space Trader does have a few bugs (it is early access after all) but I'm looking forward to its completion and hope to help with bug finding and feature recommendations.
