About the Game

Your mining company has a new spaceship! To pay it off, you fly to nearby asteroids and mine through caves to collect and sell gems. The cash you earn can also be used to travel to new asteroids with higher risks and rewards--or you can buy upgrades to your tools and your spaceship. Explore the asteroids, watching for all sorts of enemies along the way, especially those that come out at night...

The minerals market updates every second, so always keep one eye on the gem prices. After all, the only thing more frightening than the vast emptiness of space is an empty wallet. Sell your gems at the right market moment, and it can make or break your expedition. The store has many goods for delivery, including torch packs, pickaxe upgrades, fuel expansion tanks, exosuit movement upgrades, stamina upgrades, and more.

The monsters and robots on the asteroids prey on the vulnerable and singled-out, so the help of your friends is invaluable. Coordinate your mining and survival plans easily with in-game proximity voice chat and walkie-talkies.

The day on the asteroid goes fast. Communicate with your crew to get back to the ship and out of the mines, and have fuel ready for take off. Don't let the monsters sneak aboard your ship! How long can your crew stay in business?
