Land on a distant planet in this chill resource management game. Harvest alien resources, build and automate machinery, uncover secrets across the stars and strike shipping deals with distant colonies for exclusive rewards!


Land on an alien world with nothing but your wits, your tools, and your drive to thrive. Build,
explore, and automate in this sci-fi resource management game.


From humble beginnings to a sprawling space base! Construct your base from scratch using
anything you can find - from primitive resources to unknown alien materials. Unlock
blueprints, optimize your workflow with automation, and push deeper into outer space!


Uncover the mysteries of distant worlds. From ancient relics to strange ecosystems, each
planet holds its own set of secrets.


Not every species welcomes visitors. Hostile wildlife and territorial species won’t let you
exploit their planet without a fight - have your loyal robot companion O.P.H.E.L.I.A and laser
guns at hand!


Discover colonies across the stellar system and participate in intergalactic cooperation. Aid
them, trade with them, or learn from them as you discover your place in the galaxy.
