Overview
Description

In Asteroids: Outpost, humanity has pushed its industrial reach into the solar system’s massive asteroid belt, turning it into a new frontier of wealth and danger. Players launch with only an Outpost Module and a Mining Tool, building bases, extracting resources, and battling relentless asteroid storms and hostile claim jumpers. The game blends sandbox survival with strategic resource management, letting you design outposts, upgrade equipment, and trade your haul back to Earth’s dwindling mines. Every decision is a balance between profit and survival in the unforgiving void.

Starforge drops you onto the distant planet Atlas, a procedurally generated frontier where humanity's last hope hangs in the balance. Gather resources, craft gear, and construct sprawling bases while fending off intelligent alien threats in a dark, serious sci‑fi setting. The game blends RTS strategy, FPS combat, RPG progression, and voxel sandbox creativity, letting you shape your own story on a living planet. Play solo or with friends as you explore, expand, exploit, and exterminate in a relentless survival adventure.
