Prepare for outstanding strategy, base-building simulator from Introversion Software – The Last Starship is now available on GOG in its early access with a -10% launch discount which lasts until February 22nd, 6 PM UTC! The Last Starship is the latest video game from acclaimed indie games developer Introversion Software, creator of such gems as
Prison Architect,
Uplink: Hacker Elite,
DEFCON or
Darwinia. In this developer’s most ambitious project yet, you can expect engaging exploration of the universe, rich and detailed ship building and customization, ability to process resources and expand your hull, as well as strategic combat and control of the whole fleet!
As your crew awaits your orders, it will be necessary to build your ship. You can select from a range of pre-packaged fleets or build your own, starting from reactor to power your engines, laying down ship’s pipework and electrical systems and managing life support and other ship-wide systems. As you explore the universe and complete missions, you’ll earn rewards to continuously upgrade all aspects of your ship.
And that’s where the procedurally generated universe comes in clutch! Each system has unique missions, scenarios and anomalies for you to explore. From passenger rescue to cargo delivery, missions will adapt to ensure you’re constantly challenged. It is down to you to decide which routes you take through the galaxy.
Of course, in order to survive you’ll need resources like water, oxygen and fuel. Whether using drones to harvest, or lasers to drill source materials in order to create a giant mining rig, you’ll need to create a smooth operation if you’re to gain the quantity of materials you need to survive.
But as your command grows, so will the requirements to keep everyone alive and you’ll not be able to manage that on one vessel. Expansion of your fleet and design of different ships with unique capabilities is your ability to trek the stars forever!
Yet again, space exploration does not come without its dangers. Lasers, rail guns, additional armor, more maneuverability, stealth or… overwhelming fire-power. To have those and more options is in your complete control. You’ll decide what’s best for your ship and how you want to approach The Last Starship’s tactical combat.
To sum it up, The Last Starship is about to absolutely immerse you in its detailed world and gameplay. Hundreds of hours spent? That’s a given. Time to explore space!Note: This title is currently in development.
