In Cosmonautica players captain a washed-up space cruiser and must manage and care for their crew in order to become the galaxy’s greatest space trader.

Players interested in blasting into Cosmonautica prior to official launch can still purchase the game in Early Access for $9.99, but soon it will depart Steam Early Access for $14.99 with a bevy of new content, including game missions, spaceships and improved crew gameplay.

“As mobile devices increasingly become more advanced, players are looking for console-quality gameplay, and we feel Cosmonautica can provide the experience mobile gamers want,” said Josef Vorbeck, producer at Chasing Carrots. “We’ve already received overwhelming fan support for Cosmonautica from the game’s time in Early Access and we’re looking forward to delivering a fun and solid playing experience to not only mobile gamers, but also to Steam users who have yet to try Cosmonautica’s humorous play.”

Features Include:

• Advanced Simulation Gameplay – Cosmonautica offers robust and humorous simulation gameplay that has captains face challenges such as pirate attacks.
• Crew Management – Sign up to eight eccentric crewmembers to create a ragtag team of the universes best and brightest. Crewmembers mostly work autonomously, but captains must manage crewmembers by monitoring their health and morale.
• A Robust Trading System – Trade a bevy of goods, including some rare and illegal, with fellow space merchants while exploring the solar system.
• One-of-a-Kind Ships – Customize a spaceship by equipping the vessel with a variety of rooms to choose from and be the envy of all the other space captains.  
• Exciting Space Battles – Command exciting space clashes against enemy ships with crafty maneuvers during encounters.
• Cross-Platform Play – Cosmonautica will support cross-platform saved games, which will allow players to start a game on the PC and take it on the go with their tablet or other suited devices.
