TAXINAUT
TAXINAUT is a space-taxi sim / adventure in which you play a war veteran searching for a friend in the underbelly of a sci-fi fantasy world while trying to make ends meet as a taxi pilot.
Explore an open galaxy as a lonely TAXINAUT carrying fares across alien worlds. Descent onto planets and fly over alien cities and landscapes. Land at bars, diners, garages and many other common and exotic locations. Interact with the locals to ask for directions or learn about the many esoteric and sinister aspects of the Kyprei-41 galaxy. Experience a variety of items and effects like food, equipment, weapons, damages, repairs, injuries, diseases, cures, mental states, permits, memberships, etc.
Your search for “Birdie” will take you into a dark world of exploitation and cloning, and maybe give some insight into the nature of VUDU (the galaxy’s currency, energy and life-force), cycling (the act of dying and being reborn) and the Nexus (an ancient network of places where VUDU can be stored and people are reborn).

Excellent, awkward, weird, but fun space taxi game. It eases you into the game, but there's more to it than you'd expect. Beware taking jobs to uncivilized planets without the appropriate equipment.

I've had a great time playing Taxinaut over the years. The dev has kept it updated, and the hours on Steam don't represent the time I've spent in it since I first bought it on GOG. It does have a learning curve, but once you get the hang of it the interface is easy to use. The interactions with your riders are cute, and sometimes rude, but always interesting. I recommend it.

This game, even though I have 1.7 hours in it. I am hooked, it is unique and really beautiful to play and look at. The art work is really attractive and pleasant on the eyes. The concept is so simple and yet really engaging. I am attracted to quirky, unique games. So I checked the video and screenshots and reviews and I was most certainly going to buy it. I like quirky games and this game is this quirkyness I like.. Give it a go and have loads of fun
