What is Approaching Infinity?
This turn-based space roguelike takes place in a procedurally generated galaxy. You captain a ship, explore planets and wrecks with an away team, fight or negotiate with alien factions, and upgrade your ship and officers. An optional quest asks what happened to a human colony, while faction quests and free exploration provide other paths.
