TraderMissions is a top-down 2D space RPG game, in the spirit of Escape Velocity and Tradewars.

• Start with nothing Most scenarios will start you out at the beginning of a lucrative, but deadly, career. As the captain of your ship, your fate is in your hands.
• Work your way ahead Trade between planets independantly to build your fortune. Take missions from rival factions. Become a pirate and prey on the weaker.
• Get caught up by the universe Events are happening that are beyond your control: War is threatening between the colonies and the remnants of old earth; the Nakaira have returned from the battlegrounds of old. It seems you are powerless to intervene, but fate has other plans.
• Emerge Victorious Settle disputes through wisdom or force, discover the ruins of ancient Earth, and overthrow the chains of the enslavers. Or simply replace the current rulers with yourself.

• Varied Economics - Ships, addons, weapons, trading supplies: all can be priced differently and have different options. No two ports need be alike!
• Automated mission system - Missions can be generated with randomly chosen cargoes and destinations with little author intervention.
• Plain-text data format - The scenarios, plugins, and savegames are all in plain text. No special authoring tools required.
