Sol Trader

It's not what you know, it's who... a space game that's all about people and relationships. Available now on Steam, Humble Store and direct.

Single-player combination of top down 2D spaceflight and strategic manipulation of your network of contacts
No ship given to you at game start: you must take a loan and hire a ship, or borrow one from a wealthy relative
Run missions using your family and friends' connections to government or business
Research information on other characters through chatting to friends and relatives
Customise your ship with lasers, passenger quarters, bolt weapons, and missiles
Blackmail others with the information you find, or sell it to the press

Procedural generation of a whole society of thousands of random characters
Start every new game from your character's birth
Choose your parents and all your major life choices as you grow up
Your choices determine your personality and your friends, relatives and enemies
Full modding support: change all the organisations, events, weapons, planets, ships, conversations and tutorial system.
Windows, Mac and Linux at launch
