So I usually browse the internet at random and sometimes stumble upon some interesting games. Today as I was going to sleep however, I remember I saw a game that I cannot for the life of me find the name again. Not even in my search history (as I regularly wipe those). Can anyone help me find it again? Here is what I know:
- I didn’t find it from steam. And if I remember it correctly, the developer doesn’t publish it there either.
- The game website is quite “old” IMHO. Their website is styled like space with galaxy and stuff.
- The game features advertised on the very front page is freedom to become anything. Either a trader or even space mercenary
- I remember the screenshot of the game UI is like stellaris, with a star view, ship control and such
- I don’t really remember if the game is online only or not. But most likely not
I know that seems very generic but I am really hyper focused on finding it and failing. I think I also found the game by recommendation somewhere on lemmy.
Edit: It is Starsector
Alright, this is the one! OMG thank you so much, you just quench my hyper fixation!
Ayyy glad I could help😁
I had a feeling when you mentioned the website layout and that it’s not on steam that this would probably be it! If it’s been a while since you’ve played, the game has seen some pretty big updates over the past few years.
Yah, pretty huge updates indeed. I remember playing it for the first time like 10 years ago when it was only a top down shooter game. I picked it up again a couple years ago and the gameplay has expanded so much. It’s pretty much become a 4X game.
