Leaving Early Access: 2027

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“We're two siblings working fulltime on Leaks In Space. Early Access lets us improve the game through player feedback and develop it sustainably, while staying true to our vision.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“About a year, give or take. But it may take a little longer if we need more time to get it right.”

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

“Honestly, the plan keeps shifting a little as feedback comes in, and we like it that way. Keep tabs on the roadmap, it stays up to date.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The first story arc is playable from start to finish, featuring ship building, combat, mining, station quests, and player drones, which are all in right now. Expect bugs, missing features, and odd balance values. In the worst case, even expect crashes and save losses.”

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

“As development progresses and the official release approaches, the price will increase to reflect the value of the full game.”

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

“We are active in the community here as well as our Discord server, listening to feedback, answering questions, and fixing bugs.”

Roadmap

About This Game

You're a scavenger who took a wrong jump somewhere and ended up stranded in the Syntar system. It's a relaxed space sim: wander the sectors, poke at strange phenomena, piece together the story of the Syntarians (a brilliant species that isn't around anymore), and look for a way back home.

The Scavenger's Ship: Every build is a puzzle!

The ship builder lets you bolt crafted parts straight onto your core. Mine what you need, craft the parts, and place them anywhere on the grid. Powered parts like shields and turrets draw from your Power Nodes, which you earn by doing quests and exploring, so there's a real cost to every slot. Keep as many designs saved as you like and swap between them whenever the job calls for it. As you go, your core grows too, all the way up to Tier 3.

Fight pirates, acid-spitting slugmites and rogue droids, or protect your core and run!

Combat is quick to read but hard to master. Every part has its own Hull and a Leak threshold; once a part drops below it, your Pressure starts bleeding out. Armor parts soak hits but weigh you down, so where you put things matters as much as what you put on. Pop a repair token mid-fight to rebuild your ship straight from its blueprint, and kit it out with higher-tier railguns, shields and turrets when the sector gets meaner.

Pressure is your lifeline. Leaks drain it and certain abilities spend it, and if it ever hits zero the ship dies, yours or anyone else's.

Serve the station. Earn its power!

Every station has three growth stages, and you climb them by taking jobs at the Space Lounge. Each new stage grows the station and hands you a Power Node, which is exactly the currency you need to power the fancier parts of your ship.

A bot at your service!

Echo-19 tags along wherever you fly. It grabs loose loot for you, patches your leaks when things get dicey, and cracks the occasional joke to keep the mood light out there. More of its tricks are on the way too, combat included, as development rolls on.
