NAEV is a 2D space trading and combat game, taking inspiration from the
Escape Velocity series, among others.

You pilot a space ship from a top-down perspective, and are more or less
free to do what you want. As the genre name implies, you’re able to trade
and engage in combat at will. Beyond that, there’s an ever-growing number
of storyline missions, equipment, and ships; even the galaxy itself grows
larger with each release. For the literarily-inclined, there are large
amounts of lore accompanying everything from planets to equipment.
