I can't keep calling this game 'Not Star Trek' - I need to come up with a working title for it.
Star Trek, Star Wars, Star Raiders, Star Citizen, Star Lord - I should follow this theme and start with the word Star.
Then there's the thought that I could do a pun on Star Trek and have Star Walker…. Wait that sounds a bit too familiar.
I could put it up for the popular vote - but then I would end up with Starry-McStarface.
I could go for Stargasm - but don't really want to explain to my kids that the game I'm working on is called that.
Way back in '81 I used to look at adverts like the one below - and drool over what I thought was a fully fleshed out space sandbox. Experience (or cynicism) has taught me that these were possibly the only graphics in the game, but I quite like the idea that my game would be a spiritual successor to this sort of game.
So Star Trader it is.
