This game is fairly decent. If you could get over the skinny weapons and sometimes easy and predictable AI, you'll actually enjoy this. It takes place in and around space, where you can carry and trade items for cash. However along the way, you can hunt down targets in bounty hunts, which are styled in a deathmatch type of gamemode, for extra cash. It may not seem like its a shooting game, but they really introduce...

Its a funny little game made with the doom engine. I might be wrong there but it is a funny little game where you try to do some mini fetch quests...

Space Trader is a very casual trader game. You mostly trade stuff and try to make as much profit as possible in a predifined timelimit. Trading side is like playing the old drug wars but it has some extra quests dialogs and events added. On top of that there are bounties you can collect which take you to combat mode. If you catch the target, it's just more money. Additionally you will occationally get boarded by...

Did you ever play 'Drug Warz', the game that introduced a generation to the 'buy low, sell high' method of wealth attainment which probably led to the tragic american housing crash of 2008? Did you ever wish that you could have that very game wrapped up in a semi pointless 3D world you could navigate by clicking on someone's name to instantly teleport to them instead of walking all that distance? Did you ever wish...

Honestly, the game completely lacks any and all substance. It's bland, forgettable, boring and tedious. In the game, you play as an unnamed adventurer/trader, that sets forth to do one thing, become the Master Trader of the known universe/galaxy. One of the first missions is to find some chick that will give you a million credits on loan in order for you to buy a ship and start trading. You have a deadline when...

Strangely likeable despite being somewhat terrible. The trading side of the game is solid and fun if lacking a little in inventory. Unfortunately it also has a really crappy FPS element to it which definitely lets it down as a whole. That aside, I find it quite enjoyable and the price is low enough that it serves its purpose as a timekiller. Your mileage may vary.

This is very akin to the how 'reviews'...

Meh it seems a little mediocre at times and could really use a sandbox mode but I still had fun with it. Mixing some shooting stages in with all the trading was a nice change of pace. There are some odd bugs but I was still able to play the game. It's cheap and entertaining for a bit!

This game blows. The idea is great, but the execution is just plain awefull. I understand this is an indie title, but the graphics, gameplay, sound, just everything suck. Travelling between planets is just a click, you never even see your spaceship takeoff. The npc's look lifeless, and never change their facial expression. The enviroments are small and boring. The shooter levels are almost all the same, and play like...
