What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“At the time of early access, the game was developed for 2 years. It implements my vision of the "dream game" and lays a solid foundation for a variety of ideas. But I see further development only in close connection with the gaming community - is development moving in the right direction? What would players like to see in the game first? Your opinion is very important to me!”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Prior to the release of version 1.0, in accordance with the release plan for new versions.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

v0.12
  • automatic purchasing, shipping, and selling of cargo.
  • scheduling the turning on and off of individual equipment or entire rooms
  • separate personnel control panel
  • automatic transfer of personnel via network of stations
  • different sized equipment
  • redesigned cafe Russian, American and Indian kitchens

v0.13
  • Temperature and radiation will be redesigned and their effect on the colonies will be more significant.
  • Natural disasters will be added (solar flares, meteor showers, dust storms, etc.)
    [Wireless energy transfer between colonies

v0.14
  • Hygiene - facilities, equipment and mechanics related to it
  • Disease and medicine (injuries, pandemics, treatment methods, their impact on gameplay)

v0.15
  • Factions/Societies/Groups and the interaction between them
  • Androids and Clones
  • Interstellar Ship Creation and Dispatch (no arrival to another star yet)

v0.16
  • interface redesign
  • performance optimization

v1.0
  • interactive training
  • exit from early access

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“At the moment, all the basic mechanics are implemented in the game:
  • Simulation of the solar system
  • Construction of stations both on the surface and in the orbit of planets
  • Physically correct space flights
  • Research Tree
  • Vital activity of the staff
  • Resource extraction and production

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“The price will gradually increase with the release of large updates.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“I am glad to receive any feedback and suggestions from players, and I try to respond to them promptly on Steam, on the official Discord game server or by email.”

About This Game

In the middle of the 21st century, humanity faced a shortage of resources on planet Earth and the leading space powers turned their attention to space. You will lead a private space corporation and begin industrial development of the Solar System.

Scales

Discover the vast expanses of the Solar System - from the hot Mercury to the icy Kuiper Belt. Explore the mysterious landscapes of the planets and their satellites: from the endless deserts of Venus to the Martian canyons, from the volcanoes of Io to the icy shell of Europa. Create dozens of colonies, orbital stations and spaceships capable of accommodating hundreds of colonists.

Colonies

Create and develop extraterrestrial colonies with a variety of specializations: from spaceports and mining settlements to farming and tourist complexes, as well as scientific colonies and majestic space stations. Use a simple and powerful construction mechanism to bring your boldest architectural ideas to life. Extract minerals and create production chains, starting with simple resources and gradually moving on to more complex and high-tech products. Hold elections in the colonies to take into account the opinions of residents and pass laws reflecting the dominant ideology.

Staff

Each astronaut is a unique individual with his own character, worldview, professional skills and experience. As experience and qualifications grow, the need for decent wages and comfortable living conditions increases. Colonists, like all people, need to satisfy basic needs: food, sleep, rest and personal hygiene. Particular attention must be paid to the health of the settlers. Timely treatment and care for the injured and sick will ensure their survival and well-being.

Logistics

You will have dozens of unique game resources at your disposal, and mineral deposits will be scattered unevenly across the planets. Create and optimize a logistics network with an efficient shuttle system that will transport cargo and personnel between colonies and spaceports. Conclude contracts and trade with all game nations.

Harsh conditions

Space is a hostile place for humans: the temperature varies greatly depending on the time of day and time of year and depends on the location of the colony on the planet, the presence of an atmosphere and the distance to the Sun. The radiation background varies on different celestial bodies and increases during solar flares. Meteor showers pose a serious threat to colonies and orbital stations. And on planets with an active atmosphere, storms and calms periodically occur, disrupting logistics and affecting electricity generation.

Research and technology

This path will not be easy, but science and technology will help to overcome all difficulties. Produce new high-tech resources to create increasingly complex equipment and better building structures. Use powerful engines and wireless power transmission to colonize the most remote corners of the Solar System. Explore space farming and cuisine for a varied diet and greater comfort for astronauts, and space tourism for additional income. And also robots, clones, force fields and much more!

The Solar System awaits you in Solargene!
