Stardeus is a deep colony sim set on a broken starship manned by drones and hibernating human survivors. As the AI, have your drones repair your ship, save your crew and travel the stars in this beautiful simulation.
RPG Gamers summaryIn the latest gaming news, developers of the intriguing simulation game “Stardeus” have unveiled a new Bioverse update. Taking inspiration from popular titles like Factorio and Rimworld, Stardeus places players in an immersive colony simulation situated on a damaged starship.
Players assume the role of an immortal AI tasked with the survival and prosperity of drones and hibernating human survivors. Initial gameplay requires the drones to repair the starship, while also making decisions to either protect or exploit the human crew, as they traverse the cosmos in an intricately detailed and procedurally generated universe.
Gaining its depth from both strategy and RPG elements, Stardeus focuses on the reconstruction of the damaged starship according to the player’s own needs and desires. This incorporates a careful balance of onboard systems like oxygen, heat, and power. Additionally, players must process resources into useful components to expand the ship’s facilities, and even turn crops into sustenance for the progressively awakening colonists.
Energy creation is another key aspect of gameplay, establishing a robust interconnected system for powering the ship. It even extends to researching and employing alien technologies by utilizing the ship’s extensive computing power. The AI player’s role is pivotal in discovering new survival tactics while managing crew interactions in the harsh universal environment.
After the full establishment and power-ups of the ship with skilled colonists, players can embark on journeys to explore and mine on various procedurally generated planets and systems in this expansive universe. They must stay prepared for an infinite array of events and encounters brought on by the game’s AI, which ranges from alien encounters to interstellar trades or pirate attacks.
Anchored in strategy and adaptive gameplay and enhanced greatly by the compelling narrative of survival, Stardeus provides a compelling proposition for fans of space exploration and colony simulation games.
This game is available to wishlist via Paradox Arc Games on Steam.
