What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Early Access if a way for me to get valuable player input and integrate player-designed ships, factions, bosses and more into the game. So join our Discord to share your feedback and ideas!”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Early Access began on September 15, 2025, and is ending on September 22, 2026, so pretty soon!”

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

“The full version release will bring hangars with player-designed drones, a huge multi-boss end-game mission, and much more.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“eXoSpace is already a polished game with enough content to keep players engaged for many hours (some have spent thousands of hours in the game already!). For details on the features currently available, please refer to the “About This Game” section below.”

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

“The price will increase about a month before release, as the quality and content of the game has increased significantly during EA development.”

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

“There is already an active community of players contributing to the development of eXoSpace, and you are invited to join them! I remain actively engaged on the Steam discussion boards and in our Discord server, and many player suggestions have already been successfully implemented.”

About This Game

eXoSpace Combat Engineer combines the gridless spaceship building of Reassembly, the intense combat of Nova Drift, and the unpredictable hyperjump encounters of FTL.

Using a fully gridless, intuitive snap-and-rotate designer, you balance weapons, thrust, energy and armor, use advanced mechanical parts like pistons and hinges to build transforming warships, or install hangars to deploy swarms of custom-designed drones.

Take your custom vessel into Bounty Hunt mode, navigating asteroid storms, pirate ambushes, and random encounters as you evolve your ship from a basic drone into a true dreadnought to survive intense, bullet-hell boss fights.

  • Mission-based game loop: complete missions to increase in rank and build even bigger ships to hunt more dangerous targets.

  • Gridless spaceship designer that lets you easily snap parts together in any angle, allowing you to quickly try out new designs or upgrade your ship.

  • Design your own drones and deploy swarms of them from your hangars.

  • Intuitive engineering constraints: balance thrusters, weapons, energy and armor to create an effective warship.

  • Bullet-hell boss fights: each mission ends with an epic phased boss-fight. Find weak points while dodging projectiles.

  • A fully-featured sandbox allowing you to build any ship, create your own faction, and share it with a click on the Steam Workshop. You can even build your own boss!

  • The Galactic Arena: face design and piloting challenges ranging from 1 vs 1 drone skirmishes to cruiser battles.

  • More than 600 different ship designs to discover, including many community creations.

  • More than 200 parts to build your ship with, including powerful faction-specific weapons.

  • 5 playable factions with their own tech tree, powerful unique parts, and crew.

  • And more is added in regular updates!

User Praise:

  • “This game is ingenious, amazing and AWESOME! Something that fills the gap between Reassembly, Cosmoteer and Starsector.”

  • “I like how here, I can quickly design something and experiment. I can iterate quickly and comfortably."

eXoSpace is developed by Bas (@ Fantastimaker), a solo developer.
