UPDATE
Ok, got some sleep) time for bug fixing)
-"sky" now scrolls properly
-trade/attack now should tigger without problems
-fixed missing sounds

UPDATE #2
Added x64 version, now attack trade should work if you have x64 system. I hope.

UPDATE #3
Yes, finding anything is a *. Ok, I've made everything closer (I'm not sure if rebalancing is allowed by rules though)

I was plannig make some pong game... In the end I've got some trading/exlore/space/wtf simulator. WHY?

By looking at comments, i guess i need how to play section...

Q - Buy stuff
E - Attack stuff)
(Both work only at close distane)

Battle is turn-based with instant result(screenshot)

WASD, arrows - moving, of course

Features:
what i did make
-AI trading system (transports flying from planet to planet delivering stuff)
-Simple economic system(richer planets will sell/buy more stuff for better price, also random taxes)
-Simple battle(you can raid transport ships)
-3 game endings(game overs obviously)
-Upgrade system for ship
-Food/fuel

what i didnt make(due time limit)
-Actual economic
-Actual battle
-Actual game ending/purpose
-Radar (good luck finding anything)
-GUI
-Animations
-Ship variations
-Piracy
-Stuff i forgot

Damned deadlines
Be careful with source, its ugliest code i have written for the past 5 years

Unity, cgMusic, sfxr

Q and E didn't work for me. Roamed in space until ran out of fuel/food. Did see a red ship zoom by though. Also enjoyed the audio =)

good job, continue this way :)

Those instruments always remind me of Monkey Island. ;)
The people on those planets are starving. Nowhere food to buy.

Not sure if I played it correctly, Q and E neither worked for me, didn't find anything but space... Music made me enjoy the flight, though.

Wow, it's hard to find anything! The shooting lacks feedback (bullets, recoil, flares, impact) Now with that out of the way, I did like the setting and the mood and you did a good job of setting up shops. I just couldn't find my way back to the other planet, so I starved to death...

Trading is a good way to use the theme. Could use some work as you mentioned already. Music was kind of medieval bard-y but fit with trading.

Funny game, but I'm not sure what it's about exactly, it was a rather decent game though.

The music was pretty decent. I liked the overall concept, but couldn't figure out how to get more money so I can upgrade my ship.
