Space Robot Games

I’m making decent progress on the new prototype. It’s exciting to be working on a whole different genre. This time, I’ve approached prototyping a bit differently.

The Point of Prototyping

I don’t think it’s controversial to say that the goal of making a prototype is to find out if an idea has potential while expending the minimum amount of effort necessary to expose that potential. The smaller that effort is, the faster you can prototype, which in turn means you can create more prototypes (or iterate on them faster). This translates straightforwardly into better products.

Potential: Disguised By Inaccessibility

For prior game prototypes, I made the odd assumption that explanations/tutorials weren’t worth investing in for a quick-and-dirty prototype. After all, we just want to know if the core mechanic is interesting or enjoyable. It’s not unreasonable to expect the tester to try the idea for a few minutes.

In truth, I’ve never had this work reasonably. Partially that might be explained by not having a ‘proper’ testing setup, where someone has agreed to test for a duration. Even if true, since that won’t change in the near future, I still need to solve the problem.

Another partial explanation could be that game devs, in order to minimize time to hook a player, have become skilled at using clear graphics and visual/aural prompts to guide player behavior. Thus, players expect there to be hidden meaning in the graphics and animation that simply isn’t there (or hasn’t been reworked repeatedly for clarity).

Yet another explanation could just be that I design confusing mechanics!

Whatever the reason, my desired outcome is the same: I want to know if the idea is any good, and I am not reliably getting that information.

Tutorial-Driven Development: A Better Way?

For this prototype, I’ve decided to try an experiment: I’ve sacrificed a significant portion of the initial 25 hour budget to implementing reasonably clean placeholder graphics and effects, along with a tutorial that guides testers through what they need to know to explore the specific feature I want to test.

One unexpected (though intuitive) benefit has been that I don’t need to worry about building out any more of the game than is necessary to drive that guided tour, and a little bit of a test-drive afterwards.

Another benefit is that having to find ways to clearly explain the mechanics has helped shake out some unnecessary complexities of the system.

The obvious downside is that this approach leaves fairly little time to actually implement interesting mechanics, so we’ll see how it pans out. Hopefully the time spent working on tutorials can be shortened significantly by familiarity and creation of a reusable package.

Altogether, this is one of those decisions that makes me feel my lack of experience. It’s unlikely I had it right the first time, and it’s unlikely I’ve found the Truth now. It’s frustrating to labor under incomplete understanding, but I guess that’s life.

—

And that’s that, for now.

Best space games on PC : top 9 space video games0001

There are as many games about traveling through the expanses of the Universe, extraterrestrial civilizations, battles on spaceships as there are stars in the night sky. But we still tried to collect the best single and online space games in one place.

The cold emptiness of space has long attracted the authors of fantastic works. Indeed, unlike fantasy worlds, which, with all their diversity, still live according to the general canons of the genre, the infinity of space gives scope for the most daring fantasies and allows you to implement grandiose author's ideas without compromising the integrity of the perception of the world.

It is not surprising that many very worthy games take place in the space setting, to which we dedicated our selection. And for convenience, they are divided into several categories.

Action

Mass Effect Series

From 2007 to 2017, BioWare regularly gave us parts of the best space RPG series in the history of the industry, but perhaps the best series of space games on PC in general. The grandiose space opera, in which appropriate pathos intertwined with complex moral dilemmas, signature humor and romantic digressions, certainly deserves to head our top. Particularly pleasing is the noticeable influence of the features of the passage of the previous parts of the game on the development of the plot of the following when importing saves.

And while Mass Effect: Andromeda, released in 2017, didn't live up to all expectations, all three endings of Mass Effect 3 made many fans feel "What was that?" - the magnificent story of Captain Shepard, told against the backdrop of the decline of several civilizations, will forever remain in the hearts of gamers. And megabytes of dialogues, a lot of side quests and decent graphics of all parts of the series only confirm the correctness of this choice.

Buy

System Shock Series

The legendary cyber/bio-punk dilogy, most of which the player spent on abandoned spaceships full of mutants, fell short of the first place in this category. Both parts of the game once made a mini-revolution in game development, but now only critics and the most dedicated fans remember them.

Buy Now

Halo Series

The Halo Series exploits humanity's long-standing fear of superior alien aggressors. The story begins with a desperate attempt by people to strike at the very heart of the xenos alliance, and further parts of the series open the veil of secrecy over the secrets of the world carefully created by the authors. Advanced graphics, whirlwind gameplay and a great storyline make Halo a worthy winner of bronze on our podium.

Buy Now

Lost Planet Series

The Lost Planet Series tells a dark story about how humanity destroyed its own planet and then lost the war to alien insectoids while trying to colonize other planets. The events of the game are developing on a harsh ice planet, the settlement of which is almost the last hope for saving people.

Buy Now

The Chronicles of Riddick

In a selection of games based on movies, this game would definitely take first place. After all, now the popular opinion is that it turned out even better than the movie. The Chronicles of Riddick tells the story of a sunglasses-wearing criminal named Riddick who escapes from the universe's worst prison and tries to survive while shaping the fate of the world.

Games of the series are not available in official digital services

DOOM series

In the mid-90s of the last century, almost every happy owner of a home computer shot, sawed, beaten and disintegrated Martian demons. However, the third part of the series failed miserably in the competition for dominance in the genre of shooters released at the same time Half Life 2. Only a revival in the form of a restart allows the DOOM series to compete again for the hearts, souls and wallets of gamers.

Buy Now

EVE Online

A monstrous MMORPG that allows its players to take part in epic spaceship battles. These battles often result in the combined destruction of in-game property equivalent to millions of US dollars. The game is designed for active participation in the life of clans and alliances, which is by no means limited to PvP battles on weekends - without an alliance it is very difficult from an economic point of view.

play

Star Conflict

A cute Action MMO from Gaijin Entertainment, where you can both participate in session PvP/PvE battles and explore the open universe by completing story quests. The game is quite unpretentious and easy to learn, so it is quite worthy of the attention of gamers, especially since you can download its client for free.

play

Star Trek Online

For the love of the fans, the Star Trek universe has long and successfully competed with the Star Wars themselves, but the quality of games in this universe is still noticeably inferior to the creations of Lucas Arts. So, although the MMORPG, released in 2010, introduces us to most of the races of the Star Trek universe, it still remains very mediocre, especially in terms of the variety of quests.

play

Destiny 2

A space MMO shooter from the developers of the original Halo trilogy with a powerful RPG component, a well-thought-out crafting system, many side quests and a huge amount of game content. The main problem of the game is constant comparisons with Halo. The game is very good, but still falls short of the status of a legend.

Play

Warframe

Released in 2013, a third person MMO shooter with a space setting and biopunk style. An important component is the crafting of various equipment and exoskeletons, known as, in fact, warframes. The game has great potential, but for several years now it has been evoking the feeling of “just a couple more patches…”.

Play

Entropia Universe

Entropia Universe introduces players to the amazing world of a distant star system and discourages the freedom of opportunity: here you can visit themed planets, buy real estate, trade in hand-made items and personally participate in the political life of the game universe. At the same time, the project is available for free, and also boasts the ability to convert in-game currency into real dollars.

play

Everspace

Everspace sends us into deep space - not at all friendly and full of dangers. Here, in the role of a mercenary who takes on any job, we have to explore star systems, extract resources, complete tasks and fight enemies. Among the advantages of the game - roguelike structure, exciting action and incredibly beautiful views of space.

Buy Now

Avorion

Avorion is a procedurally generated space sandbox where players can build their own ships using scalable blocks and a huge selection of modules. In addition to the exciting building process, the game will delight adventurers with epic battles, deep space exploration, the ability to extract resources, trade, join clans and many other options.

Buy Now

Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare

Most of the Call of Duty games are fairly mundane, and offer combat, albeit in different settings, but still on Earth. Against their background, Infinite Warfare feels like a real revolution, sending players off our planet for the first time - the war is raging throughout the solar system, and the heroes will even visit outer space. Traditionally for the series, all this is seasoned with excellent action and a beautiful picture.

Buy

Nimbatus - The Space Drone Constructor

A creative action roguelike in which you become the smartest captain of a mobile drone factory slicing through space. Smart - because here you can assemble any robot from scratch from 75 physical parts, and then check whether it is suitable for the tasks.

The drone can be directly controlled, destroying planets in search of valuable resources and fighting their not very friendly inhabitants. The game will also please with a PvP mode where you can call other players and check which engineer is the coolest.

Buy

Horror

Dead Space Series

Dead Space is one of the first horror games in a space setting, one of the first games with a reduced interface, where the HUD is absent as such and replaced by individual indicators inscribed in the context of the game world. The creator of the genre and the author of a mini-revolution in game interfaces deserves to lead the top space horror.

The second and third parts significantly expand the number of characters in the game and add the intrigues of the galactic government, forgotten technologies and a secret cult to the Necromorphs. And although we are already familiar with System Shock, the showdown with the crew members of abandoned spaceships that have risen from the dead, the atmosphere of hopelessness, loneliness and chilling emptiness was a perfect success in Dead Space - and this is all that is needed for a good horror movie.

Buy Now

Alien: Isolation

Perhaps the best incarnation of the Alien movie universe in the world of computer games. Throughout the game, we have to run away and hide from the pursuing terrible xenomorph, which we can’t cope with with improvised means.

Buy Now

Prey

Although the genre of the game belongs to shooters, the very gloomy atmosphere of the space station captured by aliens and the set goal, which is not to save humanity, but to simply survive, provided it with a worthy place in the top space horror games.

Buy Now

Stasis

Stasis takes players aboard a spaceship that holds dark secrets. In the role of a character awakened from cryosleep, they need to solve the mystery of the starship before a catastrophe happens, but they must remember that danger lurks at every turn, and the fragile psyche of the protagonist may not be able to withstand the meeting with terrible nightmares.

Buy Now

Observation

Observation is another thriller, but this time the player will take on the role of artificial intelligence CAM, which controls the orbital station. He will have to help Dr. Emma Fisher find out what happened to the crew, watching the character with the help of cameras and providing support in traveling through the station compartments. If you like games like SOMA or Tacoma then Observation is another great experience.

Buy Now

First Class Trouble

A social multiplayer game in the spirit of the Mafia and Among Us, where players, in the role of passengers of a space liner, must stop the rebellious AI, and also identify traitor robots that have crept into their ranks, acting in the interests of onboard computer. The game constantly keeps in suspense and frightens with the constant presence of villains in the team that seek to destroy the passengers of the ship.

Buy

Aliens: Fireteam

Third-person co-op survival horror game set in the Alien universe. Teaming up as a squad, players will challenge the fast, strong and deadly Aliens in a series of campaigns. The unique abilities of character classes, as well as an extensive arsenal of weapons and modifications, will help repel the threat.

Buy now

Moons of Madness

Lovecraft's tentacles have reached the cosmos - this horror story is inspired by the work of the famous writer. You will play the role of a researcher who finds himself alone on a Martian station. Colleagues have mysteriously disappeared, and probably the best way out is to lock yourself up and wait, but loneliness and paranoia quickly take their toll.

Get ready to go on a not so pleasant adventure to the dark side of Mars, figure out what happened and, of course, try to escape from here. If you can.

Buy now

Simulations

Star Citizen

This game will be the best space sim ever if it is finally released. Since 2011, Cloud Imperium Games have been promising a huge open world where you can take part in grandiose space battles and complete individual missions on the surface of planets.

During the crowdfunding campaign, the developers have already raised hundreds of millions of dollars, but none of the promises as of 2022 have yet been fully fulfilled.

Play

Kerbal Space Program

Kerbal Space Program is the ultimate simulation of building, launching (and usually massive disaster) a spaceship. It has great realism and detail, thanks to which NASA uses it for educational school programs.

Buy now

Space Engineers

Buy Now

Universe Sandbox

A small but very detailed simulator of the behavior of various space objects, which allows you to create your own system of stars, planets, asteroids, etc. and see how this system will behave, taking into account the laws of physics. Great for weak PCs.

Buy

Series X

Launched in 1999, a series of economic simulation games from the German studio Egosoft. The plot in the games of the series is present, but it takes little time compared to trading, upgrading the ship (or buying a new one) and the fight against piracy (although you can trample it yourself).

Buy

FTL: Faster Than Light

In this game, we are given a ship that must overcome several sectors of the galaxy. To solve problems that arise during the journey, you have to manage different systems of the ship and give orders to crew members. The "chip" of the game is simplified graphics in the style of a bagel. The plot is fast-paced, but each achievement unlocks new ships.

Buy

PULSAR: Lost Colony

PULSAR: Lost Colony is another long-term construction from the kickstarter, less ambitious than Star Citizen, and having reached at least early access since 2013, and successfully left it in 2021. The game will explore procedurally generated galaxies, trade and fight in space.

Buy Now

Elite: Dangerous

The last installment of the Elite hardcore space sim series. It has a huge number of available star systems, the number of which is hundreds of billions. The game continues to evolve, with each expansion adding new mechanics like exploring the surface of planets.

Buy now

Breathedge

Breathedge is a space survival simulator full of humor, references and easter eggs. Having crashed in an asteroid field, the main character must collect resources, make tools, build a space base, as well as find out the causes of the disaster and deal with the offenders. A little routine, but still addictive and incredibly funny game.

Buy Now

Empyrion - Galactic Survival

An open-world MMO simulator in which gamers can travel across planets, build bases and starships, fight in space and trade, master the laws of a hostile galaxy and try to take their place under a distant sun. The game boasts a wealth of gameplay mechanics and beautiful views of unexplored space.

Buy Now

Mars Horizon

Educational strategy in which you lead one of the leading space agencies and conquer the solar system. The project is based on modern scientific research, and in a playful way offers to get acquainted with the realities of space exploration.

Buy now

Interstellar Rift

Open world space sim with a focus on ship building and teamwork. Build your own starship and set off to explore the galaxy, team up with friends and take on the challenges of deep space together as you troubleshoot, mine for resources, and fight off pirates and hostile alien lifeforms. Apart from modest graphics, in other aspects Interstellar Rift is more than an addictive game.

Buy Now

Heavenly Bodies

A fun physics simulator that offers you to cope with difficult controls in zero gravity. Such trivial tasks as connecting equipment and adjusting the azimuth angle of antennas become unbearable when the astronaut constantly strives to fly somewhere, and there are not so many objects that can be hooked on. But it's fun, especially if you play with friends in co-op.

Buy

The Planet Crafter

This survival sim puts you in the same environment that Matt Damon found himself in in The Martian - on a lifeless Mars, where help is nowhere to be found. Therefore, you will adapt to local conditions, collect alien materials and try to make something useful out of them.

Gradually you will learn how to extract oxygen, the cold station will become warm, and you will have ambitions to populate the whole planet and turn it into a blooming green paradise. However, remember that sandstorms are not going anywhere.

Buy Now

Spaceflight Simulator

Spaceflight Simulator is similar to Kerbal Space Simulator, but without the cute kerbals - there are various space rocket components that you need to put together and make it work. It won’t work at the click of a finger - the game has a realistic physical model, every detail has real analogues and corresponding characteristics, and during the flight you will have to control a lot of things, from fuel consumption to stage separation.

The game, by the way, is available on mobile platforms, so you can imagine yourself as a space engineer anywhere.

Buy Now

Hardspace: Shipbreaker

A humorous simulator about a skilled but not very lucky spaceship scrapper who owes money to a large corporation - now, in order to pay off the debt, he will have to take a lot of orders and take apart everything that has a price for parts.

Hardspace: Shipbreaker will delight you with rich tools for dismantling (you can cut and destroy literally everything), an advanced physics engine, nice graphics and a first-person view that gives the game an adventure element.

Open world single player games

Starbound

At the very beginning of the game's plot, our character is escaping from a catastrophic Earth and trying to survive in the vast and hostile expanses of space. The game is distinguished by the procedural generation of planets and objects, which allows you to achieve an impressive variety of content. There can be up to a million different types of weapons alone.

During the game, you have to explore the surface of the planets, build structures on them, extract resources and various items. Despite the simple graphics, Starbound provides the player with a huge amount of content and an impressive freedom even by sandbox standards, which makes it worthy of the first place in the space sandbox subcategory.

Buy

Space Rangers

The legendary project from Russian developers for its time was just the perfect space game on the PC, where the player could lead the life of a warrior, pirate or merchant in a large-scale universe inhabited by five intelligent humanoid races (and one hostile race of space robots ). A separate feature is text quests full of corporate humor.

Endless Sky

Although the main story in this sandbox takes up to 16 hours of gameplay, the additional features of Endless Sky are really endless - in addition to the huge open world, the game comes with a galaxy editor, which allowed the fandom to create many mods. A simple graphics allows you to run the game even on weak PCs. A separate bonus of the game is its Open-Source status and amazing cross-platform.

Play

Spore

Spore is the long-awaited 2008 sandbox game that takes you from a single-celled organism to a race that rules the universe. The constructor of creatures and ships in the game is amazing and allows you to realize the most daring fantasies.

Buy

PARKAN

PARKAN is a series of space sims from Russian developers, released from 1997 to 2005. The game combines a short main story with a huge procedural universe where you can trade, piracy, complete missions from 6 opposing factions, or establish a colony and thereby create a new faction that can gradually lead to universal dominance.

Buy Now

No Man`s Sky

Once again, a long-term construction that promised too much, in which, as a result, a huge procedurally generated open world turned into an impressive half-empty expanse with almost nothing to do. However, the developers have corrected themselves, and now No Man's Sky is able to captivate no worse than any other sandbox.

The hero has only twenty minutes to explore and uncover the secrets of the unknown world, after which the end of the world occurs and everything starts all over again.

Strategy

StarCraft series

Although this brainchild of Blizzard did not become the first space RTS, losing the palm to Dune 2, it is definitely the best space strategy worthy of leading the top. First introduced in the series, the rock-paper-scissors balance has since been repeatedly copied by competitors.

In addition to innovative gameplay, all parts of the series boast high-quality graphics for their time, perfect balance, an interesting storyline, a variety of missions and many possible tactics (including the very zerg rush). All this allowed the game not only to raise millions of dollars, but also to become an esports standard in the RTS genre. And the charismatic Sarah Kerrigan will long remain one of the most recognizable characters in space games on PC.

The game allows you to dominate the economic, military and diplomatic ways, and passions are in full swing here.

Play

XTerium

XTerium resembles the game above, but with some differences, the most important of which is the fast leveling. You don't have to play for months to get out of the starting planet, and soon enough players will have enough resources to start star wars. Considering that this is an MMO project, a significant emphasis is placed on the interaction between participants, guild activities and clan bonuses.

Play

Star Federation

Another browser-based strategy that stands out from the competition with its scale: players will find a large selection of races, resources, types of ships, vast territories to explore and conquer, the ability to construct starships, exciting battles and many other elements. Let the space in the game is not very attractive, but in terms of strategic and tactical gameplay, it can give odds to many.

Play

Battlefleet Gothic: Armada 2

RTS based on the iconic Warhammer 40,000 universe and dedicated to epic space battles featuring 12 factions including Space Marines, Chaos, Eldar, Orcs, Tau and more. This is a dynamic, ultra-violent, uncompromising strategy in which you can easily get lost for a month or two.

InfraSpace

A city-building simulator with a focus on resource production. Your ambitions here are as high as anywhere else - you intend to build entire megacities with a million people on Mars, but first you will have to extract resources, build factories, deal with transportation, solve the problems of life on another planet and correctly allocate the budget. Not the easiest game, but you will definitely like it if you like solving logistics puzzles.

Solargene

Star Wars Games

Star Wars Republic Commando

Over the years of its existence, the Star Wars franchise has acquired a detailed Expanded Universe, which, moreover, as soft canon (everything is true until the films show otherwise) include games written based on this universe.

Topping our list of games in the Star Wars universe was Republic Commando, a shooter released in 2005. This game differs from most other games in the franchise in that here our protagonist is not just another Jedi saving the world, but a simple commando commanding a squad of clones of 4 people who will have to perform various missions for the benefit of the Republic. The game has an enchanting soundtrack and very spectacular graphics for its time.
