Finishing main plot. It will take me maybe 20 hours more to finish this game, but im looking forwards to playing more games this type. I played X3 but i didn't like it. My PC is too weak for Elite Dangerous and Space Citizen *lol*

More 2D Sci-Fi Space Rogue-like RPG Fleet Managment games like this?

I can vouch that it is very good.

[Jonofwrath]

I'd have it but don't want to use the payment method on their website. I'm waiting for a broader release - steam etc.

Try Weird Worlds:

It's much less trading and a bit more exploration and combat. And a lot shorter, meant to be a casual game. With interesting depth and different main quest lines/endgames. A nice space rogue-lite.

[Jonofwrath]

Oh yeah I have that. Not bad.

Space Pirates and Zombies http://store.steampowered.com/app/107200/ <- while the storyline is different, it has a lot of similar mechanics - top-down space shooter, build ships, manage fleets, complete missions, save the galaxy :)

And if you want a 3d space game with fleet management and gameplay ranging from small dogfighters to huge fleet battles, nothing beats X3 (warning - steep learning curve, very deep game, and need a fairly powerful rig to play):

Also Void Expanse, wholly recommend:

Pretty nice, modern, just download the unofficial female AI voice mod. Very much what you want.

While you're at it, also get Protogalaxy, it's a free 2.5D space shooter with multiple good ideas implemented!
