The Crew
Your crew runs on a clear priority loop—balancing emergency tasks, assigned roles, personal needs, and downtime. Hire specialists like engineers or farmers, assign their roles, and watch them gain experience on the job. Leveling up your workforce unlocks advanced ship production tiers. Just keep an eye on their comfort: as workers climb the ranks, their demands for high-tier amenities grow right along with their skills.
Space isn't a quiet office. Defend your hull, cargo, and passengers from incoming meteor strikes, environmental hazards, and opportunistic pirates looking to tear off a piece of your ship.
