I first covered The Star Legation earlier this year after checking out the impressive and rather generously sized demo. I was very taken with how well written the game was, as well as the variety on offer with the look and feel of the characters you interact with along the way.

The Star Legation is currently seeking funds on Kickstarter to add further life to the game via professional voice acting, which would make the game an even more complete experience. The work that’s already gone into the game’s worldbuilding and character histories is already extremely impressive – even more so considering that it’s the work of a one person development team. To add to this, there’s a nice feel of customization when setting up your character before you embark on your intergalactic quest of unification, which can see you conducting conversations at a diplomatic level with some nicely unique alien races, as well as conversations on a more personal – sometimes even romantic – level with other crewmembers.

You can check out and back the game at the following link to its Kickstarter page – and the game’s demo can be downloaded from Steam here. The Star Legation is due for release in 2021.
