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.
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.

It’s a little tough to narrow down without more features of the gameplay or world, but maybe you’re thinking of Starsector?
