GalGen Trader is (or at least will be) a 2D space trading and exploration game set in a complex and persistent procedurally-generated universe. Dwarf Fortress in space, if you will.
One of its most important features is the ability for extension modules to be added that can change just about any feature of the program; from new weapons and devices, to adventure modules that add new 'mini-plots' (similar to the Galactic Adventures DLC for Spore), to modules that replace parts of the core game.
This functionality is supported by the game being written in Python 3, with its powerful support for including external code at run-time.
The graphics will be a simple mixture of 2D raster and vector imagery with text-based menus, and the music will be highly reminiscent of the 80's 'chiptunes' that made up the soundtracks for games on the Amiga and Commodore 64.
