About the game
You run a passenger airline in space, starting with a small ship and enough money to get moving. Each trip gives you a new route through stations and hazards. You steer around asteroids, watch the fuel, repair equipment and look after aliens who want food, entertainment and a working toilet. Poor service brings an inspector aboard, adding another problem to your flight.
Up to four players share the work locally or online. One can pilot while another cooks, cleans or dances for bored passengers, but everyone can change jobs when something breaks. You choose stops and upgrades together, weighing repairs against the next expense. Crashing sends you back for another attempt, while unlocks and money you bank help later trips. The crew needs quick calls during trouble, with quieter stops between flights.
