Space Pirates and Zombies 2
In SPAZ 2 you must survive in an evolving post apocalyptic Galaxy. The zombie threat is defeated, infrastructure has collapsed, fuel is scarce, and scavenging means survival. Initially the Galaxy contains hundreds of fleets, each trying to survive. AI captains do everything the player can. The player is not special and is not the center of the Galaxy. As resource scarcity becomes critical, ships come into conflict just to survive. Factions may form for protection or split due to starvation. Old friends must become fodder. Stronger factions establish and defend territories, set up resource hubs, and establish star bases. Weaker factions may resort to banditry. Each captain is unique, persistent, and shapes the Galaxy. When factions meet, combat is usually the result. While the strategic side of SPAZ 2 is about exploration, territorial control, and faction building, the action side of SPAZ 2 is about ship construction, tactics, and salvage.

Another one of those "oh fucks its 1am and im totally fucked tomorrow but i want to keep playing" games. fly around a galactic map scavenging resources and upgrading your modular ship. fight in basic third person ship to ship combat scenarios. manage a small fleet that supports you in battle. create a network of starbases and gather other pilots to join your ranks and become a galactic empire. There is a lot of stuff in this game, none of it is complicated, but its a fun gameplay loop.

An expansion of the concepts of the first game, that brings some more modern design philosophy. Room to improve exists, but it's a fun little sandlot to romp around in and customise ships in

This is a great game. It's the type of game that gives you freedom, while having a locked in story. Do whatever you want, and see how it works out for you. I hope they make a third game, because i love the world, the characters, the story, the strategy, the shipbuilding, they gameplay, the economy, the faction dynamic, and my only fault for this game is there isn't more of it.

Fun little venture out in your upgradeable and modulebased starship and have fun exploring, exterminating, diplomacying etc. :)
Happy gaming!

I imagine this is what people will become if space travel to this degree ever becomes a thing. Just a bunch of lawless hooligans doing dumb things with the plethora of resources in the galaxy blowing each other up and being a bunch of scavengers. I made a ram ship that has a habit of flipping other ships over and watching them try to recover while saying things like "Nope, not dealing with this." is quite comical.

It was grindy at first. It takes too long to start having fun. But it is fun when you get there. Lots of colorful space battles and pieces flying off ships. I don't much care for the story or the voice acting, so I don't recommend buying it for those things. It supports controller, but it's much easier to use m+k/b. Mostly it's good for piecing together ships and blowing up other people's ships.

A whole lot of fun and great humor, definitely worth picking up.
