Constellation Distantia is an atmospheric story-driven sci-fi survival adventure.

Constellation Distantia fuses together a story driven gameplay, great amount of planetary systems to explore and entertaining mechanics with fast paced free flying and planet scale explosions.

Two vessels in your command: a massive nuclear mining ship capable of star travel, and a smaller exploration vessel ready for service. Step into a world created by true sci-fi fans in the spirit of Star Control 2, Firefly TV-series, Revelation Space novels and many others.

200+ pages of professional grade storyline with thrilling twists and events. Constellation Distantia presents a complete lore to build on in the future as well.

Around 50 handcrafted missions with more than hundred illustrated cutscenes keeping the gameplay interesting for hours to come. New types of missions are revealed often to keep the player on the edge of the seat until the very end.

Around 40 star systems presenting celestial objects of all sorts from rocky asteroids and volcanic moons to life containing rock planets and gas giants. Feel the lyrical ambience and vastness of space in an unique artistic cosmos with the highly praised soundtrack by Maximalism.

There are a lot of people in Distantia, and not all of them friendly. Mining vessels, modified fighters, transporters, dome habitats on deserted rocks all the way to mega-cities. You gotta be on guard.

Modes from purely narrative focus to a gameplay for extreme survivalists provides great replayability value.

Sometimes it's hard to find a peaceful solution and a combat situation becomes inevitable. There are several types of action: Mission related combat, karma related combat, hostile lunarians, plain robbery and ill will, AI vs AI combat and bossfights.

Trading, easy to grasp crafting, leveling, blueprint studying and spacecraft upgrading. Super smooth free flying, karma and resource management and an oasis-like starports with game statistics. Different types of mining from fast paced asteroid splitting to planet scale thermonuclear detonations which literally vaporize a complete planetary crust into oblivion, for your convenience. Everything wrapped inside clear and modern game visualization and focused usability.

The game in its entirety is designed for traditional PC playing in mind from the very beginning. In addition we have made it fully VR compatible for Oculus Rift and HTC Vive. The thing is, lightning fast free glide right next to a massive planet in VR feels absolutely amazing!

Constellation Distantia will be available as digital download through Steam on February 28, 2017.
