A downloadable game for Windows

Made in 48 hours for the GM48 game jam!

During an asteroid mining expedition, your ship loses power and you become trapped in an asteroid belt. Collect nearby resources to bolster your defenses against frequent meteor showers and rival space miners!


Consume resources for stats or use them to upgrade your base!

In this game, every collected resource has a different side-effect. By consuming certain resources you can gear your ship for defense, offense, mining, or any mixture of the three. There are also rarer resources that give you direct upgrades. Some materials can also be deposited into your base for upgrades or to be turned into placeable turrets.

Survive for as long as possible.

As the game progresses, the difficulty will slowly increase. Your asteroid will slowly be chipped away by incoming meteors and enemy mining ships. Having a game plan to utilize your resources effectively will be your key to success!

Love the game! What an accomplishment to make something so good in just two days. My only major complaint would be that it feels as though the base movement and miningg speed for the character are a little too slow. I was never able to build a turret in my three times of playing, as my base would be destroyed before I had sufficient resources. Overall it was a fun time and I'm looking forward to any future updates! :)

Thanks! I'm currently working on a major update that will hopefully bring multiplayer to the table
