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?

“Early Access gives us the opportunity to hear what players enjoy, understand what could be improved, and decide which features to focus on next. We want to build on a solid foundation and make Sol Protocol better with the help of the people who play it.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We don't have a fixed end date for Early Access yet. Our goal is to keep developing Sol Protocol until we (and the community) feel the game has reached the level of quality and content we want for the full release.”

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

“The full version of Sol Protocol will build on the core gameplay available in Early Access, with more content, additional features, and improvements to the overall experience.
During Early Access, we plan to expand the game based on our public roadmap that is driven by players using the in-game feature voting system.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current version of Sol Protocol already offers a good introduction to the core gameplay loop and is in a good technical state with fully functional crossplay co-op multiplayer.

There is more content to add, more features to develop, and existing systems that we want to expand and improve. Players should expect a more limited experience than what we ultimately want to deliver in the full release.”

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

“The price may increase when Sol Protocol leaves Early Access, as we add more content and features and continue to improve the game. Any price change will be announced in advance.”

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

“The game includes an in-game roadmap with a feature voting system that allows players to vote for the features they would most like to see developed next. This helps us understand what matters most to the people playing the game.

We also use our Discord server to gather feedback on both new ideas and existing features. We want players to have a place to share suggestions, discuss changes, and tell us what is and isn't working for them.”

About This Game

GATHER YOUR TEAM 

Whether solo, duo, or with a full crew of three, you'll have to adapt dynamically to survive the galaxy of Sol Protocol. Want to navigate through an asteroid field? Become a Pilot. Ever dreamt of shooting down foes with your turrets? Gunner is perfect. Or would you rather strategically plan your next move and manage ship’s shielding system? Welcome aboard, Captain. Each role has a distinct set of tasks to perform and handy tools to utilize throughout the journey.

PLAN YOUR BATTLES

Enemy spaceships are roaming the deep space, looking to destroy and loot your ship. You'll need to use different weapons scavenged across space and strategize based on your available resources to deal with intense randomized encounters and collect your loot afterward. Choose your battles wisely, warping away is sometimes the only way to avoid total annihilation.

MAINTAIN YOUR SHIP

Without your ship, your crew is lost! Do everything you can to protect it! Manually repair damaged components by replacing them with parts looted from abandoned bases and vessels. Put out fires (literal and figurative) to take care of what you can't replace. The ship's various features can be individually upgraded to become even sturdier or to gain new and powerful traits to ensure you survive. 

GATHER YOUR RESOURCES

Resources are sparse, but vital both for the maintenance of your ship as well as future upgrades. Explore the deepest corners of the cosmos to find abandoned space stations and lost vessels to gather the necessary materials. Be careful, though - loot is rarely gathered easily. Traps and puzzles will hide the best loot, enemies will patrol key locations, and you'll be working against the ticking clock of your own oxygen supplies...
