About

In the far future, humanity is ruled by The Ministry of Accounts, an oppressive bureaucracy that tracks, records and taxes every transaction of daily life. From the depths of Red Tape, a new breed of marketeer arises to challenge the authority and make a profit: the Space Trader is born!

As a Trader, you will attempt to amass a fortune beyond your wildest imagination, buying and selling commodities and taking up arms against the oppressors or even accepting bounty missions, hunting down crime bosses and their thugs.

I created the Calgary Game Developers meetup group in 2013, co-founded the Calgary Game Developers NPO in 2015, ran Global Game Jam Calgary from 2016 to 2020 and created this project, Alberta Makes Games, in 2018. Thanks for checking out local games!
