About the Game

Space is never calm. Especially when you build a station.

This is an indie turn-based strategy game about building and developing a space station, where every decision shapes your final outcome. Simple at first glance, the gameplay constantly asks you to choose between long-term growth and immediate objectives.

Each turn, you can perform one action:

  • Scan space: search for resources, signals, and strange discoveries hidden in the void.

  • Navigate the shuttle: transport discovered resources back to the station, balancing risk and reward.

  • Expand the station: build new modules and shape your base to fit your preferred strategy.

The galaxy is not static - random events, anomalies, and crises can disrupt carefully made plans or open up new unexpected opportunities. Are you prepared?

At the start of each game, the Galactic Council sets a primary objective and a limited timeframe to complete it. When the game ends, your performance is evaluated based on how efficiently you managed resources, expanded your station, and adapted to emerging challenges.

  • Turn-based gameplay focused on planning and careful decisions

  • Modular space station construction

  • Space exploration and resource management
