A sandbox space sim where you freely build ships, explore procedurally generated galaxies, and engage in combat or trade at your own pace.

What players say

Players are split on StarMade: some call it abandonware stuck in early access since 2014, while others report it is back in development with a robust logic system for building. The game offers deep creativity but has no controller support and a complicated learning curve.
