I also noticed that Nookrium has posted a 2 hour video on Starsector, which was updated in March. For those that have never heard of it, it's basically attempting to be the be-all-end-all of top down space games and it's been in Early Access development for 8 years now.

  • Pilot your ship in top-down 2D combat
  • Command your fleet in tactical battles
  • Gain experience to level up your skills
  • Detailed space combat mechanics
  • Customize your ship’s loadout before battle
  • Hire officers to give skill bonuses, pilot auxiliary ships, and oversee your operations
  • Explore war-torn star systems
  • Exploit events to trade goods for profit
  • Win the favor or scorn of powerful factions
  • Discover new worlds and salvage lost derelicts
  • Mod Support for diverse user-made content
  • Claim new worlds, build outposts and industry
  • Complete narrative missions and uncover hidden technology

It's nice to see this game getting an update. It's got a learning curve though, mainly because there's a LOT to do. So, if you have a space itch, there's your scratch.
