This Android port faithfully reproduces the original game. Your
goal is to earn enough money whether by honest trading or other
seedier means to retire to your own moon. Buy goods on one planet
to sell to another but watch out for space pirates! If you're tough
enough hunt down pirates to earn rewards. If that seems too
above-board try smuggling illegal items for spectacular profits. Or
if you'd rather become a pirate yourself and rob other traders of
their goods. Be careful though. The police take notice of illegal
activity...
Just like the original Space Trader for Android includes:
• Four different skills with which to customize your character.
• Ten different trade goods two of which are illegal but very
profitable.
• Ten different ship types some well-suited for particular
play-styles.
• More than ten different ship upgrades some of which are common
and others only available as rewards for particularly noteworthy
deeds.
• Over 100 unique worlds randomly generated for each new game.
• Over a dozen missions and special encounters if you can find
them.
This Android port also has new features:
• New high resolution reproductions of the original in-game
graphics!
• Five different themes! Choose between light or dark versions of
Android's Holo and Material styles or truly bring back the past
with classic Palm colors.
• Optionally randomize quest systems. No longer return to the same
places over and over again every game!
• Line-by-line examination of the original game code led to over 15
bugfixes included in the port.
• Optional UI updates including extra shortcuts zoom gestures and
animations.
