Our take on The Galactic Junkers
The likely sticking point is the upkeep loop: players who do not want to manage crew, repair a ship, and gather supplies may bounce off when those tasks compete with exploration and combat.
What is The Galactic Junkers?
The Galactic Junkers is a comedic space adventure about a captain pursued by bounty hunters, pirates, and the Galactic Union.
Explore all nine planets and nearby sectors, mining asteroids, salvaging wrecks, trading, or stealing supplies to keep the ship running. In combat, crew members operate the guns, while boarding enemy vessels offers another way to take resources or hack their systems. Hire crew, develop their skills, or replace them, and buy, repair, or upgrade ships. The story follows a search for the truth behind the bounty on the captain, amid a setting of damaged space stations, asteroids, and shipwrecks.
