'Convicted Galaxy' Available On Steam Early Access - Screens

Convicted Galaxy is a single player, space based, action adventure game with shoot ‘em up and rogue-like elements played from a third-person perspective.

For nearly 1000 Pulsar Years (PY) the mass majority of humans have lived within space stations and ships in orbit around various planetary bodies of the Milky Way. All attempts to find another suitable planet within our own galaxy have been met with failure. Resource rich planets, including Earth, are now seen as production planets for food and minerals. Poor nutrition and living conditions in space have lead to the reduction in average lifespan by more than half (70PY to 30PY). Beside the negative side effects from living in space, resources and orbital space are dwindling. A recent deadly space station collision, preceded by many others, has prompted a response from the Federation of Earth Descendants (FED).

All Interstellar Correctional Fleet (ICF) ships have been sent on a potentially one way colonizing missions in hopes of keeping humanity alive beyond Earth. Each ship has been outfitted with Advanced Capabilities Exploration (ACE) pods, and have been assigned a unit from the Office of Galactic Reconnaissance and Exploration (OGRE) with high hopes of finding planets suitable to live on once again. You are an ICF guard aboard one of these vessels.

After a catastrophic event aboard an Interstellar Correctional Fleet (ICF) prison ship, you find yourself stranded in an unknown galaxy full of escaped prisoners. The prisoners grow stronger with every passing moment.

Convicted Galaxy is available through Steam Early Access ($14.99) for Windows, Mac, and Linux with a limited time 10% discount.


You’re a prison guard stranded in deep space, piloting an emergency escape pod, surrounded by escaped prisoners. Oh joy!

Lucky for you, this isn’t just any old emergency escape pod, it’s an Advanced Capabilities Exploration(ACE) pod, giving you the ability to build stations and satellites around planets for resource collection and a sense of safety. In addition, the ACE pod is easily expandable with the right knowledge. Explore the system and collect upgrade knowledge from mission logs scattered throughout the galaxy, often found in friendly disabled ACE pods. Upgrade your vessel and search for a true refuge within the Convicted Galaxy.

Take risks when necessary, but don't forget that you only have one chance.
