* InventoryManagementPuzzle: In a sense. The cargo you carry takes up space - often a lot of it - and in some cases comes with additional restrictions (breaking down if not adequately powered, for instance, or needing to connect to a central node to be counted when you reach your destination). In addition, more powerful components are large and often awkwardly-shaped, not to mention that thrusters and most weapons need to be placed on the outer edge of the ship... a large part of the game is making sure there's ''room'' for everything you need.

Buck Mann is a down-on-his-luck SpaceTrucker. With his RobotBuddy Adaam-12 in tow, he makes dangerous delivery runs through {{Asteroid Thicket}}s and {{Space Pirate}}s for various corporations, both to pay off his gambling debts and regain his former fame as an AcePilot.
You start each run with a ship shaped out of hexagons, on which components can be built. After attaching your cargo and a few basic components, off you blast through TwoDSpace. You do not control your ship, instead you must manage its defenses and collect resources from destroyed asteroids and enemies to build additional components. Do you add more thrusters to get a bonus for speedy delivery, or additional turrets or shielding to survive the trip? Often a run requires reconfiguring your ship several times on the fly.

!!Tropes:
* AsteroidThicket: A major source of resources for upgrades. And blowing up your ship if you don't blast them out of the way.
* ConstructAdditionalPylons: Advanced components require an adjacent power station. This can create a conundrum over whether two basic components would serve you better.

* RailShooter: You're barreling along the path, blowing up stuff before it collides with you or shoots you down. Technically, you can hit the brakes by disabling your thrusters, but that's a bad idea if you want to be paid well.
* SpaceFriction: If your thrusters are destroyed, you'll slow down.
* SpacePirates: Your primary enemies. One in particular keeps hounding you for the ''radioactive waste'' you're transporting for one company.
* SpaceTrucker: The whole premise the story is built around.
* TowerDefense: The game's primary pedigree, with the special wrinkle that it's your towers that are moving along the path.
