01 / THE GUIDE
Open‑World Exploration
The galaxy spans 30 star systems filled with devastated planets, uninhabitable zones and quarantine‑locked stations. Players can board stations, visit bars and discover ghostly derelict ships via the star‑map, then space‑walk to salvage valuables.
Hidden wormhole shortcuts, comets and unique stations add layers of discovery, encouraging players to chart routes beyond the main story and uncover a ton of secrets.
- Map out wormhole routes early to reduce travel time between distant systems.
- Check bars for side‑quests that often point toward hidden stations or derelicts.

Combat & Missions
Combat is fast‑paced, with a large variety of jobs and missions ranging from shady deliveries to pirate raids. Side‑quests can be silly, adding humor to the otherwise intense encounters.
Players may choose to pursue a life of crime, stealing cargo or attacking pirate stations, or focus on the main plot involving missing gold bars and intergalactic intrigue.
- Balance combat with side‑quests to earn credits for better ships.
- Consider the consequences of a life of crime before attacking stations.

Ship Customization
A diverse array of ships can be purchased and upgraded, allowing players to tailor performance for combat, cargo hauling or asteroid mining. Upgrades let players tailor ships toward roles such as combat, cargo hauling or asteroid mining.
Unique mechanics include refueling from a sun’s corona without burning up, offering a strategic advantage for long‑range trips.
- Invest in cargo upgrades if planning asteroid mining or freight runs.
- Test the sun‑corona refuel in a safe system before relying on it in combat zones.

Economy & Trading
Players can haul goods between systems, engage in asteroid mining for metals, or operate a large cargo ship. Hauling goods and mining metals can fund better equipment, so choosing profitable routes matters.
Pirate stations provide opportunities for illicit trade, while legitimate stations offer standard delivery contracts.

- Use pirate stations sparingly to avoid drawing unwanted attention.
