★★★★★ - "This is a wonderful game and an outstanding achievement for its developer!"
★★★★★ - "The lack of combat is unique and contributes a lot to this game's zen-like feel. It makes space travel feel less like a career and more like a casual hobby, which really makes it stand out!"
★★★★★ - "I enjoyed it so much that I had to get all of the achievements (that last million took me a few days!). The gameplay loop of trading, exploring, upgrading is really compelling and it's all done in a totally chilled environment. [...] Thanks for creating this."
★★★★★ - "Well done! *Refreshing* change of space exploration. Not a shoot 'em up. Graphics are very clean. Planets and stars are excellent artwork. I don't usually leave music on during games.. But in this case, it made the whole experience very Zen-like. Well worth the price. Thank you devs. Please make more... 😊"

I love this game, and the only thing I could say is I wish for more systems in the game. This is a calming experience that I just open on my phone from time to time. 9.7/10 would recommend as a side game
I love this just as it is. I don't want combat at all. Perhaps a few pirates (and only as an option) would not be amiss, but this game stands perfectly as it is. That was one of my grips with elite... will spend hours playing.
could you please make a linux version? This looks like a really good game for my steam deck
Thanks, maybe I can do that soon! I heard that it works well with Proton on Steam Deck in the mean time though.
This game is great!! I would love to transfer my save to another machine. Can you tell me where it is located. I tried to copy the HF folder from appdata but that didnt seem to work. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks and keep up the fantastic work!!!
This is the type of game i've been looking for. I love it! Suggestions:
I bought this ages ago but just got to playing it and I've had a blast. Very fun balm game to play.
please tell me you originally played a browser game call Space Pirates many years ago and its what gave you the inspiration for this!
I've been looking for a relaxing... trading sim without a hundred controls to memorize. It's retro graphics are easy on the eye as well. The lack of constant combat is a nice aspect as well. That the game is open ended without having to be drawn into a story thread is great too! I love the game!
That said, in all fairness, rare encounters with would-be hijackers (pirates) would add a extra dimension to the game. Perhaps with the option of no pirates, few pirates, and just a few more pirates would be nice. A surrender (cargo) option, evade option (at a distance) or combat. Not sure how combat might be resolved... an option for computer driven auto combat... after all, an AI would better know where another ships weak spots are.
But then, that would be my idea of expanding the game and not your game. Your game is stands alone as wonderful! Well worth the cost. Thank you:-)
