At its core, Space Pirates and Zombies is an action based, skill oriented, top down space combat game. It's similar to the ones we knew and loved in years past, but now using full physics simulation and modern graphics for those oh so pretty explosions. But as you dig deeper, SPAZ becomes much more.

Storyline

Humanity has expanded throughout the galaxy after the discovery of the miraculous element 126. With more of the new element found near the galactic core, the outer worlds, including Earth, have become neglected backwaters. However the galaxy is now in turmoil as the UTA, originally set up as a police force, begins brutally repressing the civilian population, which rises up against them. You and your motley crew of space veterans complete work on a massive mothership on Earth, and after some initial setbacks set out for the galactic core to find fortune. But all is not well in the core worlds, and galactic civil war turns out to be the least of humanity's problems.
