About Asteroid Rodeo

Asteroids are worth trillions. They're also spinning at 200 meters per second and hurtling through the void. Nobody talks about that part. You're a Wrangler — one of the few people crazy enough to fly out into deep space, harpoon a tumbling rock, and wrestle it to a dead stop with nothing but thrust, cable, and stubbornness.

The Wrangler's Loop

•

Scan — Find the rocks with the most precious metals.

•

Despin — Harpoon it, deploy sticky thrusters, and tame the spin.

•

Mine — Laser out the voxels once the asteroid is stabilized.

•

Sell & Upgrade — Haul the payload back to the station, get paid, and build a bigger ship.

Harpoon. Tether. Survive.

Every asteroid is a physics problem trying to kill you. They tumble on multiple axes and don't care about your schedule. Latch on, fire your thrusters against the spin, and try not to get wrapped around a million-ton rock in the process. Start small with slow-spinning boulders, and work your way up to monsters that will fling your ship like a ragdoll.

Build Your Ship. Fly Your Ship.

Full voxel ship builder. Cubes, wedges, cylinders — block by block, thruster by thruster. Build something efficient, or build a flying dumpster with seventeen engines strapped to it. We're not here to judge. Whatever you build, you fly. Your ship's mass, thrust, and shape matter when your life depends on the engineering choices you made twenty minutes ago.

Missions in the Deep

The frontier doesn't hand you a career path. It hands you a list of jobs and a fuel tank. Out in the belt, your radio will crackle to life:

•

Rescue Operations — Stranded ships, dead engines, bad orbits. Harpoon them and tow them to a station before their air runs out.

•

Armageddon Runs — An asteroid is on a collision course with a station. Deflect it. Blow it apart. Whatever it takes.

The physics-first workplace danger of Hardspace: Shipbreaker, the satisfying mining loops of Deep Rock Galactic, and the ship-building progression of Avorion... you'll feel right at home in the belt.
