Hey everybody,
You may recall my post from a few months ago in which I shared our upcoming starship colony sim with you. Many of you seemed to be interested in the game, so I hope you'll welcome some significant updates regarding our project.
Starfall Protocol is an open-world starship colony sim with RPG adventures set in a galaxy with millions of explorable planets! The game was greatly inspired by the legends of the genre, such as Dwarf Fortress, RimWorld, and Prison Architect, just to name a few. Here's a brief recap of what the game is about, but I recommend checking out Noobert's awesome video on YouTube about Starfall Protocol:

Build and upgrade your starship to manage, expand and evolve your crew in a single-player starship colony simulator game set in a vast galaxy waiting to be explored. Guide your colony through the mysteries of deep space featuring millions of stars and planets inhabited by diverse and unique ecosystems. Trade with and wage war against intricate factions ranging from desperate space pirates to galactic empires. Explore the cosmos to discover rare materials and untold riches, and lead your people to prosperity! Adapt, exploit, but make sure you are prepared to live with the consequences as your actions ripple through space-time.”
I am delighted to announce that we aced our Kickstarter campaign back in October 2022, reaching 436% of our funding goal! Thanks to our incredible community, we can now work on the game at full throttle, instead of it being just a hobby project.
In the first stages of development, we created a lot of low-effort temporary assets that only served as placeholders to get our ideas across. As a result, a complete visual overhaul was something that we really wanted to do at one point. Over the past few months, we completely redesigned all existing assets from scratch to improve the game's aesthetics. Of course, there is still a lot of work to do, but we are really happy with the high degree of customization this new approach offers to the characters in the game. Since there is a huge emphasis on exploration, environmental diversity is very important to us, and we are continuously adding new assets to the game. Let me share just a few screenshots from our current build (of course everything is still a work in progress):
The game is set in a sandbox galaxy with countless explorable star systems and interstellar regions.
Each star system is the home of many unique planets, each with its own thriving (or not so thriving) geography and ecosystems.
You can land and explore literally anywhere on any planet in the galaxy!
Build and expand your Starship, but your designs should always consider the dangers of space travel. Fire will be probably the least of your concerns!
Recover dangerous and valuable resources to advance your colony, but always make sure that your crew is adequately equipped for the situation!
Venture into deep space to uncover the dark mysteries of the galaxy!We have also implemented countless new and exciting features, but I really don't want to make a long post here. If you are interested in the game and all the gameplay systems we plan to implement, please check out our Steam page for more info:
