I love this. There's something about space truckin' that gets me - I spent thousands of hours once upon a time in EVE just moving things from one place to another in my deep space transport or freighter, even though it was economically stupid to do. I just enjoyed it.

I'm running a Traveller game now, and for some unfathomable reason the part of the game that appeals to me the most is the trade.

I'm a sucker for a good spreadsheet.

Spreadsheets in space? That's just icing on the cake.

I'm looking forward to seeing more!

It's great to hear from you! You are my people! I've also spent many hours in Eve. Traveller is a big influence, too. I've always loved building spaceships wherever I could. I hope you enjoy this world I'm creating.

The board game Galaxy Trucker was published in 2007. You were ahead of your time.

I see something come up from time to time and start to panic that I have missed my window. I did but Galaxy Trucker. There's a mobile game, too. The game Starfield also makes liberal use of the term, but generically enough that I think it can be a net benefit.
