Your father left you two things: a broken down workshop and a debt big enough to get you killed. You have 60 days. Repair starships, build new ones from scratch, complete contracts for shady factions, and keep an eye on the galaxy's shifting economy through your daily newspaper. Every choice matters. Every day counts.
Start with scrap metal and basic tools. Learn to craft simple components, then work your way up to full starship assemblies. Every blueprint you unlock opens the door to bigger, more complex builds. There is something deeply satisfying about watching a pile of raw materials turn into a functioning starship.
Take on contracts from different factions to earn money and build your reputation. Each faction offers unique rewards and perks, but picking sides has consequences. The more you work with one group, the deeper you get pulled into their world. Choose your contracts wisely because your reputation follows you everywhere.
Your workshop starts as a dusty, run down hangar with barely enough room to fit a shuttle. Upgrade it floor by floor, unlock new workstations, expand your hangar space, and turn it into a proper starship facility. Every upgrade feels earned.
The galaxy does not sit still while you work. Read the daily newspaper to track events that reshape the economy around you. Item prices rise and fall, new contracts appear, and unexpected events force you to adapt your strategy. Pay attention or get left behind.
