Stardeus casts you as an immortal shipboard AI overseeing a shattered starship crewed by a handful of repair drones and hibernating humans. Drawing inspiration from games like Factorio and RimWorld, it offers a richly detailed colony simulation where you’ll scavenge wreckage, restore life support and rebuild vital systems—balancing oxygen, heat and power to keep your crew alive in the void of space.
As you expand your floating base, you’ll set up automated production lines, process raw materials into components, cultivate crops for food and generate the energy needed to fuel ever-larger ship modules. Your vast computational resources let you research both human and alien technologies, opening new ways to optimize your vessel or manipulate your reluctant colonists for your own ends.
When your ship is strong enough, launch into a procedurally generated galaxy filled with strange worlds to scan, mine and explore. Along the way you’ll face unpredictable events—from hostile alien encounters to opportunistic pirates or hopeful traders—and you choose how to respond. With its deep simulation, emergent storytelling and complex resource management, Stardeus delivers an endless spacefaring odyssey. The game is available for download now.
Yes, we're reworking the UI
As you might or might not know - we're reworking the UI. You probably have a lot of questions... So did I... however, I got the chance to sit down with spajus and ask him some questions about this so called "UI overhaul". Here are the most pressing questions & answers. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/38884233/05d54ff2c0a9cce23f2a651baa6906970a8ddcc5.pngUI REWORK WORK IN PROGRESS MAY SUBJECT TO CHANGE How long it will take to rework the UI? (I heard half a year, maybe more?) It's difficult to estimate, but I hope to be finished before GTA6 comes out. The new UI is bundled along with another major feature - random quests that NPCs will give you. That feature is also not fully finished yet, which will prolong the time till next update. But don't worry, I will surely be done before 2047. How big is this rework? "I'm throwing away everything that was the old UI and replacing it with a brand new one. It's a complete overhaul from scratch. So, in other words: as big as it can be." What you want from the community? "At the current state, I only want patience. It will be a long quiet period without major updates, I hope people won't think the game is dead or forget about it." Are you really just one man? "The UI rework is a team effort, an industry professional designed the UI. I'm just a code monkey who executes the ideas. But I'm also the bottleneck, that why updates take so long. Perhaps if we sold more copies, I could get more people to work on the game? ;^)" Can I test the new UI? "At this stage it's a bit too early to give everyone access to the build to try it out, so feedback on a broken...
