About This Game

MineEngineer is a 2D space-survival sandbox game that mixes engineering, exploration, and building in a universe full of planets, asteroids, and unknown dangers.

You start alone in deep space with only basic tools and a fragile survival pod. From there, you’ll mine resources, explore planets, defend yourself from threats, and build bases and ships piece by piece — exactly the way you imagine them.

Build Anything You Want

Create bases and ships of any shape, size, or purpose. Your imagination sets the limits.

Engineering That Feels Real

A full conveyor and connection system powers everything you build. Blocks must be placed and connected correctly — building is easy, but building something that works is the real challenge.

Powerful Blocks & Modules

Unlock and place functional blocks that give your ship personality and purpose. Add thrusters, refineries, storage, weapons, and more. Upgrade your designs as you discover better materials.

Survival, Crafting, and Progression

Explore space, collect special resources, refine them into useful materials, and build gear that keeps you alive.
Find → Obtain → Refine → Survive → Assemble → Build → Improve

Enemies and Events

Aliens, space pirates, and even other players might want to raid your base or destroy your ship. Whether you hide, defend, or fight back — that choice is yours.

A Vast, Living World to Explore

MineEngineer drops you into a huge open solar system filled with places to discover and challenges to overcome.

  • Massive space to explore with unique planets, each with its own biomes, weather, and dangers

  • Procedurally generated asteroids of all sizes and rarities — from tiny rock chunks to giant resource-rich mountains

  • Natural and artificial gravity, giving every planet, asteroid, and ship a realistic and immersive feel

  • Many types of resources, each with specific rarity, purpose, and crafting value

  • A wide selection of engineering blocks, all with unique functions that tie into the building and progression loop

  • Full survival mechanics — oxygen, power, damage, hunger, and environmental hazards that keep you thinking and adapting

No two places feel the same, and the deeper you go into the system, the more valuable and dangerous everything becomes.

Bases & Ships

All structures use a grid system — place blocks, connect them, and power them to make fully working designs.

Bases (Static Grids)
Built on asteroids or planets. Perfect for storage, factories, power generation, and safe zones.

Ships (Dynamic Grids)
Fully mobile constructions powered by thrusters. Ideal for travel, cargo hauling, mining, combat, and exploration.

Your Engineering Journey

To survive and progress, you’ll go through the full engineering loop:

  • Mine ores from asteroids or planets

  • Refine them into ingots

  • Craft materials from ingots

  • Weld and assemble blocks

  • Build bases and ships with power, oxygen, and fuel systems

Every step brings you closer to mastering the universe.
