About Space Trader

Space Trader is a resource management and economic strategy game set in a procedurally generated galactic market where commodity prices fluctuate based on supply and demand, and profit comes from identifying arbitrage opportunities between systems. The game models the fundamental economic principle that price differences between markets create profit opportunities, but only when the cost of transportation doesn't exceed the price differential. Players who think systematically about supply chains, route optimization, and inventory risk management consistently outperform those who trade reactively based on visible profit margins alone.
