Description
Endless Sky is a 2D space trading and combat game inspired by the classic Escape Velocity series. Work your way up from a relatively wimpy shuttle, cargo ship, or fighter, to a highly upgraded and customized flagship or to a massive fleet of warships or freighters. Earn money by carrying passengers or cargo, escorting convoys, bounty hunting, or plundering and capturing enemy ships. Take sides in a civil war, or ignore the story line and just enjoy exploring the galaxy and blasting pirates.

The main story line takes about 8-16 hours to play through. The galaxy contains hundreds of star systems and planets, and several alien species with their own unique technologies. You can choose between more than fifty ships and several hundred ship upgrades. A plugin system allows anyone with a text editor and a paint program to create new ships, weapons, or missions, and the galaxy editor can be used to add new star systems and planets.

Endless Sky is free, open source, and cross platform (Windows, Mac, and Linux). Over time, the game universe will expand as contributors add new missions, story lines, alien species, places to explore, sound effects, and artwork.

For more information, please visit the website or read the player's manual.

To try the beta version go to 'Manage Installation' -> 'Configure' -> 'Beta Channels' in GOG Galaxy.

Endless Sky is free software, released under the terms of the GNU GPL version 3 or later. You are free to change and redistribute it.

Fun little space RPG

Fun little space RPG, but it is hard to play on big screens, as almost everything is too small and the placement of text boxes will take time to get used to.

Really fun game!

Old school, and full of choices! Think hard before accepting every mission!

hidden gem

This is a very entertaining game about a space travelling ships / fleet. Solid 2D tactical space combat with nice graphics. Very nice story campaign with numerous side missions -> story wise a nice universe. It is possible to start without fighting, however later on you will and for endgame you need to fight. The full story is not possible without fighting. But you can prepare via trade or missions or even fighting. However the story is a bit illogical (the further you go away from the starting empire, the stronger the enemies are). So you get stronger ships from the other empires only, and some necessary equipment for the endgame. I just don't understand why this game is free of charge, while other, worse games need to be paid for.

Great Game!

This game is really fun to play, and is totally possible for something that could happen in the 31st century. Great community, and unlike some games I know receives updates fairly frequently. (pop quiz: the best thing about it? IT’S FREE!) Seriously, there are a whole bunch of people helping create this very fun game. The best way to thank them is to chip in, and that’s very easy!

Fantastic

Honestly this makes me think of Eve Online "light". No drama, and at least for me, quite a relaxing enjoyable game.
