'Starship Corporation' Early Access Update Adds New Content - Screens & Trailer

by Rainier on Jan. 17, 2017 @ 9:19 p.m. PST

Starship Corporation is a real-time strategy game that contains 4 elements: Ship Design - Crew and AI Tactics - Ship Building - and Trade.

Starship Corporation lets players become intergalactic manufacturers of their dream spaceships, big or small.

Design and build spaceships for a hugely demanding galaxy-wide market. It is you who must decide which technologies to invest in, where to open new offices and where to establish new markets. Every little detail about your ships is up to you, from the interior layout to the location of each elevator, corridor and power line. Build your reputation by testing the mettle of your ship and crew in a series of real-time strategy missions to simulate emergency or combat situations, push your vessel to its limit and let the competition know just what they are up against.

The ‘Military Update’ enables the player to equip their starships with much needed military might, to counter the many dangers in space. While you progress and build your starship, you can now unlock all weapons and fuselages needed for the interplanetary military-industrial complex. Simultaneously, several new rooms have been added, including the basic cannon, advanced cannon, smart missiles (take those meteorites down!) as well as the railgun. New contracts to build exciting new ships are also now available.

David Murent, lead developer at Coronado Games says: “Development takes a big step forward with this Military Update. There is a lot more to be discovered, most importantly the final missing piece of this game: the strategy elements to unlock new markets in the galaxy map. However, for now we will focus on fixing issues that may pop up with today’s big update, so keep the feedback coming!”

Some highlights of the ‘Military Update’ are:

  • added new military fuselage 'Portador-818'
  • added new military fuselage 'Mäger-Y'
  • added new contract 'Police Cruiser'
  • added new contract 'Border Patrol Vessel'
  • added new contract 'Battlecruiser'
  • added new contract 'Missilecruiser'
  • added new rooms: Basic Cannon, Advanced Cannon, Auto Cannon, Rapid Fire Cannon, Long Range Cannon, Railgun, Basic Missiles, Smart Missiles, Cluster Missiles and Drone Missiles

Starship Corporation is available through Steam Early Access for $ 19.99.
