Crusader Kings in space?  Cross bred with Escape Velocity?  Professional social networking and dynamic reputation systems, with 200 years of procedural history inspired by Dwarf Fortress 'legend's mode'?

 

There has been some dazzling work done since the original topic on this game, and some shiny updates to the demo and graphics:

See this fine thread for development videos, and comments from the developer:  http://spacesimcentral.com/ssc/topic/4819-sol-trader/

 

Surprising emergent behaviors:

Congrat Chrismdp :fans: look forward to see more of the game.

 

That the thing about Kickstarter, they often come good in the last few days especially for ones which are close to their target, what people have to remember is that they need to keep pumping out the updates and answering questions as it the only real means of communication between the developer and the backers of the game.
