A Spacesuit and A Wrench, But No Gun

You’re trying to earn a living doing salvage and repair. Maybe on Mars, maybe near the moons of Saturn. Take contracts, fix things, and upgrade your ship.

And there is no combat system whatsoever.

Does that sound interesting to you? It sounds interesting to me. The game is Void Above, and I just heard about it when Jwalt posted a link a few days ago.

Void Above

I haven’t played it yet, but the free QuickStart looks like the mechanics back up the concept, instead of just doing vague hand-waving. It is a GMed game, not GMless, which is less my jam, but for a premise like this I have been known to make exceptions. I’m in.

The kickstarter is closing in mere days, and it doesn’t seem to be getting as much love as I think it deserves.
