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?

“Star Scrap is a roguelite - a genre that thrives on balance tuning, player feedback, and iterative content updates. Early Access lets us refine difficulty curves, card balance, and enemy behaviours with real player data rather than guesswork. The core game is complete and playable. EA is about polish, not finishing the product.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“6-12 months. The game is feature complete. EA is for balance refinement, additional content, and community driven improvements”

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

“The full release will include additional enemies and bosses, refined balance based on player data, and quality of life features requested by the community. The core loop, progression, and content are already in place.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Fully playable from start to finish. 16 enemy types, 7 bosses, 8 weapons, 33 upgrade cards with synergies, 5 ships, 9 difficulty tiers, Survival mode, full controller support, original pixel art and a 14 track soundtrack. You can pay off your debt and beat the game today.”

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

“The price may increase when the game leaves Early Access, depending on how much content is added. It will not increase during EA.”

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

“Steam discussions and reviews are our primary feedback channels. We'll use community feedback to guide tuning. Feature requests and bug reports through Steam discussions will directly shape the update roadmap.”

About This Game

```

Star owes a million credits to the wrong people. The only way out is taking contracts nobody else will touch - and the only backup is Scrap, a salvage drone with a mouth bigger than its thrusters.

Star Scrap is a twin stick space combat roguelite. Take on contracts across 7 zones, fight through up to 100 waves of enemies, collect upgrade cards to build devastating combos, and claw your way out of debt one run at a time. Or throw it all away in Survival mode and see how long you last.

  • 8 weapons from rapid fire blasters to gravity wells that drag enemies to their doom

  • 33 upgrade cards across 4 rarities - stack them, level them up, and unlock devastating synergies

  • Enemies and bosses drawn from a shuffled pool - no two runs play the same

  • Scrap - your drone companion with deadpan commentary on your life choices

  • 9 difficulties from Rookie to Nightmare, plus an endless Survival mode

  • 5 ships with unique passives, permanent upgrades

  • Push your limits in Survival Mode how many levels can you survive? Chase your personal best and see if your friends can beat it

The Loop

Pick a contract. Set your Heat level - higher Heat means tougher enemies but bigger payouts. Fight through waves of increasingly dangerous enemies across asteroid belts, nebula clouds, derelict graveyards, and deep space. Every boss kill shifts you to a new zone. Earn credits, pay down your debt, upgrade your ship, and push deeper.

Build Your Way

Collect scrap from kills to earn upgrade cards mid run. Cards level up when you pick duplicates - max a card and it leaves the pool, thinning your choices toward the build you want. Go glass cannon, stack vampiric lifesteal, build around chain lightning synergies, or find your own broken combo. 4 synergy chains reward specific card combinations with powerful bonuses.

Your Fleet

Start in a rust bucket with 10 card slots. Earn your way through 5 ship tiers, each with unique passives - from post thrust invincibility to double damage after overheating. Higher tier ships get fewer card slots but better stats and heat efficiency. Choose your trade off.

Scrap

Your salvage drone companion reacts to everything - bosses, your health, your terrible decisions, long silences, and the occasional existential observation. 

Original Art & Sound

Original background art, zone transitions, and visual identity. A 14 track original soundtrack that shifts with each zone and combat phase.
