A deep-space traffic control roguelite. Route ships, scan contraband, and fight escalating threats—from smugglers to warlords to phase-jumping aliens—while keeping one remote station alive. One bad call and your hull pays the price.

You are the dispatch operator of Orbital Outpost Kepler-4 — humanity's furthest waypoint on the rim trade corridor.Your job: guide civilian ships to dock, scan suspicious cargo, reject contraband, and keep the station running.Simple enough — until the pirates show up.DOCK. SCAN. SURVIVE.Manage incoming traffic in real time. Civilian ships need routing to the docking ring. Suspicious vessels need deep scans before you let them through. Miss a smuggler and you pay the fine. Reject an innocent trader and you pay worse.Then the raiders arrive. Pirates fly straight for your station — no negotiation, no mercy.Dispatch security drones to intercept them before they hit your hull.ESCALATING THREATSEach shift brings more ships, more hostiles, and harder decisions.- Smugglers hide contraband in civilian traffic.
