Game Overview
Take the helm of a starship as you explore, blast or trade your way through the cosmos in a procedurally generated sandbox universe where every tile matters. Use your ship to explore unknown star systems, become a pirate preying on trade routes or do work for the military as your fate is in your own hands.
Key Features:
- Every object is made up of tiles, which can be destroyed, created or changed allowing for very tactical combat
- Procedurally generated universe — Enter a different seed and each universe is different
- Multiple factions — Each with a dozen or more starships
- Near-real Newtonian physics allowing for a better space-like experience — Use a tractored ship as a shield against attacks or use it to smash into the enemy
- Ship customization — Build your ship the way you want to. Need another engine? Go ahead. Want a new paint job? Sure thing, what color should it be?
- Trade system — Have a bunch of stuff you don’t want? Travel to a nearby tradepost and sell it, or buy that crucial upgrade you need
- Manufacturing system — Gather key materials and use it, along with specialty labs, to create new ships and components, or upgrade existing ones
- Single Player and Multiplayer — Play singleplayer or multiplayer on LAN or Internet
- Cross Platform — Windows, Mac (now available) and Linux (now available)
- Ongoing Free Updates — Continue to receive updates as features and content are added. Eighteen Alphas down, with several Betas still to come.
