The game doesnвЂ™t afford you the luxury of relaxed exploration, as the Skorn, a hostile alien race intent on wiping out humankind, are on your tail. Once past the somewhat tedious and albeit cheesy-looking load-out screens, youвЂ™re dropped into an engrossing 3D open world solar system with the ability to explore neighboring solar systems across a number of different sectors, powered by Unreal Engine 4. ItвЂ™s a mix of strategy, survival and management wrapped in a beautiful package.вЂќ In the developerвЂ™s words, вЂњAs the Captain of the Ark-13, youвЂ™ll need to explore the system and planets, manage your resources, fight for your speciesвЂ™ survival, as well as deal with the occurrences that happen when you have 10,000 civilians on board your ship. Every waypoint I pinned to my map was a stressful endeavor filled with anxiety as I hoped to find a celestial body to refuel and refill my resources before the Skorn caught up with Ark-13, or I starved the last of the species. The only way to survive this galaxy is to explore its unknown reaches.

Exploration feeds into our overall experience.вЂќ The point of the game is not to explore the dynamic open space Fugitive Games has created for the setting the point is to survive within it. Ultimately, Into the Stars is about survival. вЂњItвЂ™s difficult to categorize Into the Stars, as itвЂ™s a very different style of game. I asked Orr what kind of game he thought they were making with Into the Stars. Your crewвЂ™s abilities will boost your shipвЂ™s performance according to their attributes and how you choose to utilize them on the ship once in the CaptainвЂ™s chair. The game has five different resources that run the shipвЂ™s engines, life support module, mining rig, and other vital systems.Д«efore you can hit the open skies you have to enlist a crew. I paid a bit more for my shields and weapons, and as a consequence I could only afford one extra cargo bay. ThereвЂ™s a number of ways you can utilize more or less of any given resource in the game during the Ark-13 load-out, but I took a balanced approach.

James, pretentious Military Officer who faked his way to the top without merit but with his daddyвЂ™s help вЂ“ the next step is to customize the Ark-13 to your satisfaction. Once you select your class and name your Captain вЂ“ IВ was Cpt.

Plus you donвЂ™t have to eat berries to survive.вЂќ ThereвЂ™s a sense of weight in every decision. I tested each class, which was easy because I died quite a few times to begin with, eventually favoring the Military Officer.вЂќWeвЂ™re able to put players in tough situations and see what kind of choices theyвЂ™ll make as the Captain. Each class boosts the performance of your crew and ship in different ways. You can play as a Scientist, Military Officer, Entrepreneur, or Survivalist. First of all you select the class of Captain that suits your leadership style.

The game begins with a series of load-outs that you, as Captain, must complete before you can head into the depths of this unfamiliar galaxy in search of safe haven. I had the chance to take the spaceship Ark-13 for a spin and give Into the Stars a hefty, hands-on workout. Some worked, some didnвЂ™t, but that was the beginning of the concept and Into the Stars was born.вЂќ вЂњWhen we thought about the concept of an OregonВ Trail style game in space,вЂќ Orr noted, вЂњwe really grabbed onto the idea.

Being a small team of only 4 developers, thereвЂ™s a limited pool of feedback.вЂќ They hope to release the finished product at the tail end of this summer.Д¬reative Director, Roy Orr, told me they came up with the idea for Into the Stars when they were вЂњвЂ¦brainstorming concepts at a kitchen table trying to find something we could realistically accomplish.вЂќ For these four veterans their concepts came full circle and collided with some old-school nostalgia. The developers would like to spend their time fine-tuning their space simВ according to the feedback theyвЂ™ll receive from their community of Early Access players, telling us that вЂњUltimately, we felt it couldВ only help benefit our game. ItвЂ™s now slated for a Steam Early Access release on July 9. Conceived and developed by Fugitive Games, the project cleared its second major hurdle after smashing through the Steam Greenlight program in just 3 days.

The game launched on Kickstarter on January 5, 2015, and 11 short days later, Into the Stars had already reached its $85,000 funding target. YouвЂ™re the Captain of a ship packed with 10,000 civilians, the last of our species, hoping that youвЂ™ll find new salvation youвЂ™re on the run from hostile alien races in search of a suitable new spot to settle.
