Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“We’re launching Beyond Solar in Early Access to involve the community in shaping the final experience. By opening up the game now, you help us test and refine the core mechanics in of the game. Your feedback will directly influence content, balancing and polish allowing us to deliver a stronger full version together.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We expect Beyond Solar to remain in Early Access for approximately 6 to 9 months, depending on player feedback, feature completion, and optimization progress. We’ll provide regular development updates and timeline transparency every step of the way.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“In the full version you can expect:
• Additional playable chapters and environments beyond the Early Access build.
• More ship upgrades, drones, modules and crafting depth.
• More bosses to encounter.
• Enhanced Ranked PvP mode with seasonal content and new cosmetic rewards.
• Improved visual effects, UI/UX polish, localization and Steam Deck support.
• More voice over languages.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“At this stage, the Early Access build offers the core gameplay loop: you take control of the pilot “Gravity”, engage in intense bullet-hell top-down SHMUP action, use your ship’s arsenal and drones, experience the story prologue and engage in PvP 1v1 duels and ranked ladder. Many environments are in place. Visual and audio systems are functional. However, some features are still under development: additional levels and story content, additional bosses, full localization, deeper crafting trees, additional mechanics, full achievement list, and polish (bug-fixing, performance tweaks) before full launch.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“We will not offer a discounted price however, we are planning to reward them with items, that will be available only for the one who supported us during early access! ”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We’ll keep the community closely involved via:
• Regular dev blogs and update posts on the Steam Community Hub and on our official Discord (links in the store page).
• Player feedback surveys, bug report channels, and feature suggestion threads.
• Voting polls for modes, cosmetic themes and future content priorities.
• Live Q&A sessions and playtests (look for announcements).
• We'll visibly credit active community members and aim to iterate rapidly based on your input balancing the game for both casual and hardcore players.”

About This Game

What if the meteor shower that destroyed Earth… wasn’t natural at all?

Generations ago, humanity fled to the orbital colony ARD, leaving Earth behind after a “meteor storm” scorched the surface. But now, a mysterious distress signal calls you back and you discover the truth: the meteors were the first alien strike, and a resistance still fights on Earth’s surface.

You are Gravity, a skilled pilot caught between duty, family, and survival. Guided first by your sister Aurora, and later joined by resistance fighter Ryan, you must uncover fragments of the past, face overwhelming alien forces, and make the ultimate choice: defend Earth in a last stand, or save ARD in orbit.

A bullet hell SHMUP with a branching narrative full of betrayal, sacrifice, and two possible endings. Earth is no longer safe. Humanity’s last fleet has ventured Beyond Solar, facing an onslaught of mechanical armadas and alien warlords determined to erase us from existence. Step into the cockpit of an advanced strike fighter and battle across hostile galaxies in a relentless bullet hell campaign.

Arsenal System
Upgrade and customize your ship with the Arsenal System, unlocking new weapons, defenses, and abilities to match your combat style. Whether you prefer overwhelming firepower, agile maneuvering, or tactical balance, every choice shapes how you dominate the battlefield.

Drone Crafting System
Deploy powerful support drones to assist you in combat. From offensive units that unleash devastating attacks to specialized drones that enhance your battlefield control, each crafted drone adds a new layer of strategy and adaptability to every encounter.

Challenge players from around the world in intense Ranked 1v1 battles. Climb the competitive leaderboard by proving your skill, earning victories, and securing your place among the top pilots. Compete across Seasonal Ranks, where each season resets the battlefield and offers new rewards for those bold enough to fight for the top. Every duel pushes you closer to mastery. Will you rise to the top or fall in the ranks?

In Survival Mode, the battle never stops. Face unyielding waves of enemies that grow stronger with every encounter, pushing your skills and reflexes to the absolute limit. There’s no finish line only the question. how long can you survive the storm?

The Galactic Rankings showcase the best of the best, where every victory in Ranked 1v1 battles pushes you higher among the galaxy’s elite. Progress through the Ranking Divisions. From Recruit to Combat, Tactical, Elite, and finally the coveted Legendary Division. Rise through the competitive ladder, prove your skill against rival pilots, and secure your spot at the top. Only the most determined will leave their mark on the stars.

The battle for humanity isn’t just about survival it’s about who we choose to become.

Gear up, pilot. Beyond Solar begins where Earth awakens.
