Starport Delta is a light space station building strategy game with an engaging campaign, free-play sandbox and competitive challenges.

For strategy fans who want the taste of space without personnel management, Starport Delta balances building, expanding and defending space stations from timed and event-based disasters. Players must maintain a holistic perspective of their station as they juggle their resources with unique upgrades and clever station design.

In Starport Delta, players must build the best-equipped space station to provide for their citizens and fend off the dangers of the galaxy like space works, alien pirates, space storms, meteor strikes, and much more. Once they've built the best space station possible, they must move on to through the galaxy to continue developing the best space stations.

Gamers can experience the galaxy’s most dangerous threats, lead their space stations to success and ensure a future for their citizens. In Starport Delta, players must focus on designing and building their own space station while experiencing the stories of the universe.


Survive the dangers of space

In a galaxy filled with imminent threats, players must defend their stations to the best of their abilities by building the most strategic defenses. Dangers take many forms in deep space:

  • Alien pirates stealing resources from the very buildings making up the players’ stations.
  • Massive space worms devouring anything and everything in their path.
  • Space storms deactivating various parts of stations.
  • Meteor showers raining down and destroying unprotected buildings.
  • Deadly radiation blasts endangering the lives of residents.

Engage in campaign missions

Players take on the role of the Empire’s troubleshooter and travel from station to station, improving efficiency and design for understaffed or negligent commanders. While harvesting resources and expanding their network of buildings, players will meet friends and foes as they journey through the campaign narrative.

With the opportunity to command, build, and expand their own space stations, players get to choose how they are designed and run and pursue challenging goals for the growth of their stations. Players must make complex and ethical decisions:

  • Balance the station design between mining, housing, and trade.
  • Manage defense expenditure and infrastructure
  • Evacuate citizens or risk loss of life from deadly radiation bursts
  • Rescue or airlock problematic residents and risk attracting space worms
  • Micro-manage building maintenance personally or automate with slower repair drones

Upgrade the station

Players are able to create unique upgrade combinations that result in powerhouse space stations. Grouping together three oxygen plants will upgrade to supply a larger area, whereas three mining depots will add a bonus platform with an additional ship, and other buildings have their own unique benefits.

Starport Delta is coming to PC (Steam) on March 27, 2020.
