Star Nomad is an arcade top\-down retro\-scifi 2D sandbox spacesim\.

If you are a fan of these games, then you're in for a nostalgic ride\!   \[FEATURES\]   \* A simplified arcade take on the often complex sandbox space\-sim genre\. \* Freedom of play\-styles\. \* Be a Cargo runner\.  \* Be a Mercenary unleashing firepower for wealth\!  \* Be a Miner seeking rare ores\.  \* Be a Merchant trading in goods\!  \* Be a Smuggler dealing in lucrative drugs &amp; evade the law\!  \* Be a Pirate attacking merchant ships, become infamous &amp; fight for anarchy\!  \* Join huge multi\-faction Fleet Battles\!  \* Dynamic faction standing system, where your actions will determine friends or foes\.  \* Multiple ship classes to fly, including drone carriers &amp; the mighty Yamato Battleship\!  \* All ships are up\-gradable with modules\.   In Star Nomad, you roam free in the Wildlands Sector immersed in a sci\-fi noir setting rich in depth and humor\.  While a sandbox at heart, it's also heavily story driven with a personal plot  inspired by WW2 &amp; classic sci\-fi/cyberpunk such as Blade Runner, Johnny Mnemonic &amp; Gundam that puts you right in the pilot seat to determine the outcome of an escalating corporate war\!  Star Nomad has a semi\-permadeath system whereby you will lose your ship, but insurance will payout most of the ship value in credits\.
