Publisher Paradox Arc and developer SquarePlay Games have announced that survival base builder game Space Trash Scavengers is heading to Steam Early Access soon.
Set in the 31st century, Space Trash Scavengers sees players joining the ranks of Scav-X, the galaxy’s number one waste disposal company. As you venture across procedurally generated locations such as asteroid fields, space-wrecks, and abandoned outposts, you collect scrap and resources from what remains of a formerly great civilization.
Space Trash Scavengers Steam Early Access
The title promises “a unique, 360-degree base building experience” that includes the ability to set up “factory-like automation and crop cultivation” as you seek more and more riches.
You won’t be alone, either. Alien attackers will try to put an end to your efforts, which is why you’ll want to craft weapons and make sure to regularly upgrade your spacesuit.
Here are the game’s key features, as detailed by the publisher in an emailed press release:
- Scavenge and trade: As an employee for the galaxy’s number one waste disposal firm, space trash is your main resource. Gain access to derelict facilities and space wrecks. Prise open maintenance panels, loot abandoned cargo or strip components off spaceship hulls. Recycle your haul into raw materials, or trade it at the Trash Exchange.
- Space base building: Build your Space Rig - a 3D raft with artificial gravity, power, trash processing, farming and defense. Craft the everyday food, fuel, weapons, ammo and space suit upgrades you’ll need to survive. In space there is no up or down! Expand your base in any direction for the most efficient layout. Then use your jump drive to voyage to new salvage sectors.
- Constant alien threat: You’re not alone amid the wreckage. Alien bots patrol, drawn in ever bigger numbers as your operation expands. You’ll need a steady aim, strong base defenses, and an upgraded armory to protect your Space Rig.
- Proc-gen, zero G world: Circumnavigate tiny asteroids, fly between abandoned outposts and board derelict spaceships as they orbit the system. Then jump to the next sector! Each salvage zone is a procedurally generated, dynamic and ever changing open world.
