About the Astral Enterprises Demo

This demo provides about 60 minutes of playtime. It starts with a guided introduction and then provides an open sandbox experience. It shows the core game loop, although there is much more to come in the full version of the game!

Astral Enterprises: Industrialise space, maximise profit.

Astral Enterprises merges deep factory automation with ruthless corporate management. As CEO, you will need to fit your factories into dynamic supply and demand markets. Every factory is a spatial puzzle, every market fluctuation is an opportunity, and every choice impacts your bottom line. Do you have what it takes to please the demanding board of the Parent Company?

Design Your Perfect Factory

Every factory is built on a constrained grid where components have unique shapes and sizes. This turns industrial design into a challenging, spatial puzzle. Plan around resource nodes, inconvenient debris, and components requiring specific adjacency.

Master Complex Supply Chains

Transform raw asteroid ore into high-tech circuits. Each component offers multiple production methods, creating a deep web of strategic trade-offs. Will you choose a cheap method that only requires basic Operators, or an advanced process that produces more but demands expensive Specialists and a massive power grid?

Drive Corporate Innovation

Funnel profits into R&D to overhaul your production capabilities. Unlock hyper-efficient manufacturing methods, automate tedious logistical bottlenecks, and aggressively optimise your corporate margins.

Dominate the Economy & Workforce

Every sector houses a local population waiting to be mobilised. Supply citizens with refined consumer goods to grow the workforce from simple manual laborers into highly educated specialists. Deploy them into advanced facilities to maximise industrial efficiency.

Build your Megaproject

True success demands an audacious vanity project. Boost the Parent Company’s interstellar reputation by constructing colossal megaprojects. Just manage your resource drain carefully, as syphoning an entire sector's resources to fund a vanity build can trigger catastrophic local collapse.
