About this game Read the full description

Galactic Prospectors is a 2D Space Survival Sandbox set 200 years in the future when all planets in the solar system were destroyed by a rogue AI (you can play as the Rogue AI, or as a regular Astronaut out in the universe). Take on the universe against rogue AIs, other humans and other life forms, all while trying to stay alive. Even as an AI if you wish to play as such, you too must survive the harsh elements of Space. Resources are still needed, requiring you to build factories, upgrade and maintain your ships and stations, and to live.

Galactic Prospectors will have the following features upon release into Early Access:

Exploration: Explore the vastness of Space. Travel to new sectors. Upgrade ships, build space stations, conquer enemies & raid abandoned and enemy POIs. It's an infinite world!

Build & Craft: Build space stations from prefabs, or fully custom stations from building blocks, buy premade ships or generate, customize and build your own blueprint ships, and other things. Craft components from resources such as ores mined from Asteroids that have been refined into Ingots.

Steam Workshop: Upload your creations to the Steam Workshop - game comes with an SDK too for more advanced modding!

Combat: Survive in this world against humans, other rogue AI, aliens and more.

Durability & Health: All ships and stations have health. This means, bullets deal damage, colliding with space junk deals damage. Repair your ships and stations using components and resources, or build drones that repair things for you!

Currency & Shop System: Buy ships, special weapons and tools, and more. 

Multiplayer: A (currently experimental) multiplayer system is integrated into the game and is being worked on as the game progresses, so Multiplayer is there from the beginning!

Crew: Hire AI (Robots) or Human Crew to do things on your ships & stations. Humans need Food and Water, and morale is an important thing for both (alien astronauts coming soon)!

You can literally mold and configure your world as you wish! 

Your purchase entitles you to receive all future updates free of charge!

This game does not and will not use Generative AI in the future.
