11 itemsAbout the Game
Every asteroid is procedurally generated, every building placement matters, and every colony becomes a new puzzle to solve.
Buildings gain different costs and rewards depending on what surrounds them. Maximize their effectiveness while keeping your resources steady for future moves. Reach score milestones to earn new building choices and keep expanding your colony. Plan efficient layouts shaped by each procedurally generated asteroid and its unique resource distribution.
When you connect two stations, they collect points from every building within their range - this is then multiplied by total connected stations. Plan your rail network carefully and pick the right moment to trigger satisfying score bursts when everything lines up just right.
Complete objectives to advance your expedition, unlock new buildings and explore different asteroid types. Push your scores higher and see how you compare with other players on the leaderboard.
Every asteroid in AstroScaper is a tiny, unique world with its own layout and challenges. Enjoy soothing, stylized cosmic scenery as you build across randomly generated environments waiting to be transformed into thriving colonies.
FREEBUILD MODE
Zero pressure, just pure creativity. Build freely without score limits, choose your favorite biome, and shape cozy asteroid colonies at your own pace. Switch to Photo Mode anytime to capture your space settlements from perfect angles.
AstroScaper is crafted by a two-person team. Inspired by minimalist city-builders like Islanders, it offers a similar pace and aesthetic while introducing new mechanics enabled by its sci-fi setting.
We’re pouring our hearts into this little universe and welcome you along for the journey. Feel free to share feedback and ideas!
