Produno Games Studios is happy to announce that SpaceSlog is entering into early access on Steam on the 17th April for Windows and Linux.
SpaceSlog is a spaceship building colony simulation game where you must build up your ship, recruit and look after your crew, and explore a procedurally generated galaxy.
Your colony ship is destroyed, and with it humanity’s final hope is lost to the dark, cold void. But somewhere, deep within the slog, drifts a barely functioning life pod. Alone, hungry, and lost in space, you command a motley crew of ragged survivors and must guide them through a time that has come to be known as the SpaceSlog era.
SpaceSlog will be priced at US$24.99 with a 10% launch discount set for 7 days.
About SpaceSlog
Build your ship any way you please.
Whether you want to build a small but nimble ship with a small crew, or a large battleship with lots of crew, the choice is yours. Just ensure you have enough supplies to manage your crew and keep your ship functioning.
Careful consideration must be used when placing doors, power or atmospheric systems in case of breaches or other hazards.
Explore a procedurally generated galaxy.
Each time you play, the game’s incident system will generate a different galaxy for you to explore. Whichever difficulty you choose will influence how this galaxy or incidents are generated.
Exploration is key to survival.
Stay in one place for too long or get stranded and your crew will surely die. You must keep moving and find other ships or factions to trade with in order to survive.
Crew needs and moods.
The needs of your crew must be met in order to keep your ship fully functioning. An angry crew may rebel, decide not to work or give up completely. Ensure you have enough food and water to feed your crew. You must also choose your captain wisely.
Complex combat and medical simulations.
Fight other spaceships with ship to ship combat. Gear up and board your enemies or descend to a planet and attack them on the ground. Ensure you have a medic bay and spare limbs to patch up your fallen heroes. *Ship to ship combat and planetary landings are not currently in the game.
Extensive mod support.
All the game’s data is stored in JSON files. This means it is extremely easy to change anything currently in the game and even add new ones. In the future we plan to expand on this even further.
