Description

🚀 Cosmic Frontier

A space race you live, not a menu you click. Build a launch base, refine your own fuel, put a rocket together part by part and leave the Earth. Then go further: the Moon, Mars, Venus, Mercury, the asteroid belt, the moons of Jupiter and Saturn — and in the end, other stars.

Four eras take you from a one-seat rocket to a ship that folds space:

Era You build You reach
🧑‍🚀 Pioneer a launch base and rockets in three tiers the Moon, Mars, Venus, Mercury, the asteroid belt
🛠️ Engineer modular rockets from blueprints, with stages that separate in flight orbital stations, Jupiter's and Saturn's moons
🛸 Explorer a shuttle you fly yourself, on six axes orbit and back, by your own hand
🌌 Interstellar a jump drive three procedural galaxies made from your world's seed

🏗️ The launch base

  • ⛽ Fuel refinery: coal into synthetic kerosene. Electrolyzer: water into oxygen and hydrogen.
  • ⚡ Power: combustion generators, solar panels (they give more on the Moon, nothing out by Saturn), and a nuclear generator.
  • 🗼 Launch pad, tower and service arm: the arm fuels the rocket and swings away during the countdown.
  • 🖥️ Mission control: telemetry, the countdown, a redstone signal at lift-off.
  • 📖 The Engineer's Manual: every machine and every recipe, chapter by chapter.

🌑 Worlds that feel different

Every world has its own gravity (jumps and falls follow it), air, heat and sky.

  • 🌕 The Moon: the Earth hangs still in a black sky; titanium in the rock and ice in the deep craters.
  • 🔴 Mars: canyons, blue sunsets, Phobos and Deimos racing overhead, and dust storms that darken the sky.
  • 🟡 Venus: lava under clouds that never part, 460 °C — only the thermal suit survives it.
  • ☿️ Mercury and the asteroid belt: scorching days, frozen craters, rocks floating in the dark.
  • 🪐 Jupiter's moons: Io's sulfur volcanoes, Europa's ice over a hidden ocean, Ganymede's uranium — and radiation that kills without a radiation suit.
  • 💍 Saturn's moons: Titan's orange smog, methane lakes and -179 °C cold; Enceladus, where geysers throw you thirty blocks up under Saturn's rings.

🧩 Rockets your way

  • 🔢 Three tiers of ready-made rockets to start with.
  • 📐 The design table: pick engines and tanks, see the rocket equation at work (Δv, thrust-to-weight) before you fly, print a blueprint and share it as a code.
  • 👻 Assembly hologram: set the blueprint on the pad and fit the missing parts.
  • 🎆 Staging: spent stages and boosters fall away in flight.
  • ☢️ Nuclear thermal engine: twice the efficiency, too little thrust to leave the Earth — build it in orbit.

🛰️ Orbit

  • 🌍 Low orbits of the Earth, the Moon and Mars, with the planet turning below you.
  • 🏠 Stations: docking ports, life support bubbles, greenhouses, fuel depots and an orbital shipyard for rockets too heavy to lift off the ground.

🛸 The shuttle

  • 🕹️ Newtonian physics on six axes: the mouse turns it, Z/C roll it, WASD and Space/Ctrl fire the thrusters. In space nothing slows you down.
  • 🧭 Flight assist (V): it brakes every drift and holds you up; let go and it hovers.
  • ⬆️ Fly yourself into orbit above the sky, and dive out of it to land by hand.
  • 🗺️ Navigation computer to jump between worlds; a hull that dents on hard landings.

🌌 Other stars

  • ✨ Three galaxies from your world's seed: red dwarfs to blue giants, each with its own worlds.
  • 🌋 Seven kinds of planet: barren, desert, ice, volcanic, ocean, living and crystal — each with its own terrain, gravity, air, temperature, ore and sky.
  • 🌳 Somewhere in every galaxy there is a world you can breathe on.
  • 💠 Jump drive and warp cells, a star map, and exotic crystals that grow only on crystal worlds.

🎨 Made for it

  • 🔩 Detailed 3D rockets, shuttle and launch tower, built from hundreds of parts.
  • 🔊 Its own sounds: engines, countdown, refuelling, the Geiger counter.
  • 🏆 Dozens of advancements, from your first aluminium ingot to another galaxy.
  • 🌐 English and Spanish.
