Stardeus - Flagship Constructing Sci Fi Colony Builder

[@KodoLinija]

Hey, developer here, thank you for playing Stardeus!

[@AustinIuliano]

Hey, the game looks awesome and it's free demo on steam! That means I'm 100% going to download it and check it out myself.

[@poilboiler]

It looks pretty cool. :D

[@abdoobaset6100]

Good job it will fun to see what you can do with it.

[@lucidnonsense942]

Plz add heatsinks, venting heat into space will make every space nerd scream.

[@Supernaught00]

Thank you for making it!

[@ZippytheHappyChimp]

"Glass is useless and Steel is in short supply, and now back to fueling our entire electrical grid with Steel". Good old Splatty.

[@HidForHG]

You need it for the tech stuff it looks like and there seems to be way less. So maybe it's good to not waste it. Hopefully there's enough to build up a crude ship then get out so in future systems you can mine and refine and fully expand. as it appears the base ship is ALL the resources available. That or if in later version you can get the ship to a basic state and bring it to other ruined infrastructure like the consumable locations in Starmancer. So you can speed up the leaving or scrap everywhere for max resources. Though maybe with a growing debuff for the humans having to see the ruined earth.

[@lagunaloire2710]

Just came back here to say Stardeus is being advertised everywhere now but I first came to know it here! thanks Splatty! The man who find those worthwhile so we dont have to! :P

[@KageRyuu6]

Realistically your AI core would overheat quicker in a vacuum as convection doesn't work in a vacuum, only radiation which is substantially slower and requires incandescent degrees of heat to work.

[@seankenny174]

Yup

[@Gigusx]

I knew that.

[@HidForHG]

If there was an active fan vent then you could use the excess heat to keep the ship warm. As you'd have to put something to keep it from be freezing for the humans. Reducing the need to put a load of atmospheric heating. Thus less power and maintenance.

[@od1401]

Aye that's one of the major challenges of spaceships

[@brianlynchehaun1963]

It's a huge problem in Oxygen Not Included once you breach the surface.

[@DamsdelDrennon]

That's nice, I like the duality of managing the robots and maintenance of the ship while planning for the humans and their needs.

[@TheYear2525]

Actually steel does burn, when it's molten hot. Many non noble metals can burn and give you energy. I don't know how much caloric value they have. Never ever use water to quench a metal fire though. Usually the metal just takes the oxygen from the water, turning it into highly flammable hydrogen. Usually you use sand to put out metal fires, but some metals even react with sand taking it's oxygen.

[@Envengerx]

This seems like a blackhole engine or something to convert matter into energy through hawking radiation.

[@rottenpoet6675]

This game feels epic :) The hole on the floor reminds me of space station 13 at goon station the engineers remove the floors around the thermo-electric generator so the heat can escape to space, but usually they overdo the heat and fry the whole station :P

[@jikbleach5403]

When they go full hell burn

[@Laughing_Dragon]

sounds like a hell burn gone RIGHT imo, LUL.

[@ffvbnbvxdvhggb]

first kickstarter I have backed in years (right after watching this video) - thanks for showing the game!

[@djdomain]

Makes me think it was based on Project Porcupine by quill18. He did a Unity tutorial series on base-building, having it as a space station, and cited Rimworld as an example of the mechanics implemented. I need to get around to finishing it.

[@KodoLinija]

It is not based on Project Procupine. I did study it and watched the youtube series way before I started working on Stardeus, but the approach quill18 took would crumble on bigger map sizes. Stardeus technical architecture is completely different.

[@PolarfuchsMusicFav]

Could've watched this for an hour more!

[@derekdrake8706]

The Borg were onto something, designing their ships as giant cubes.

[@ChargeQM]

... If they have matter furnaces that directly sublimate almost any matter, like steel, into usable energy, this society should be sufficiently advanced that they'd have FTL and other incredible technology. Like, damn.

[@johnmalvent2189]

Yeah, the cryo-sleep stability irked me as well. They can obviously transfer consciousness digitally and are thus practically immortal.

[@CanadianWolverine]

If they have this level of tech, why did the Earth get reduced to composite parts?

[@serencefrostbite3362]

@@CanadianWolverine like most of the post-collapse fictions, they probably got destroyed by aliens or something

[@isitanos]

@@CanadianWolverine The higher the tech level, the bigger the explosion of the bomb made with said technology. They probably obliterated their whole solar system because of some dude's garage experiments.

[@dontnormally]

Vacuum is terrible for dispersing heat

[@boone7777777777]

Heat can still radiate in space

[@ZippytheHappyChimp]

its a relative inefficient "thermal material" to be sure, but boy is it cold (when shaded)

[@ColdOneK]

Looks like a lot of fun -Wishlisted - Please tell me you can send commando squads down to planet for resources, that seems super badass

[@IanCrossland]

This game looks incredible.

[@od1401]

Like your commentary style it's very easy to listen to

[@Candyrock87]

This feels like a really good mix of Rimworld and Space Station 13

[@slaghoople1]

It was screaming metal---- that got me to comment. You had me at metal.

[@nevoth815]

Okay it sounds evil but I want to see him play Amazing Cultivation Simulator. That game is confusing Edit: so guess he already has.

[@UnlimitedFlyers]

Sseth has done a better job already.

[@serencefrostbite3362]

@@UnlimitedFlyers sseth is enough of a madman to actually embrace all the eldritch knowledge that's thrusted upon you at the beginning of that game. I'm certain seeing splatt struggle will be an entirely different experience

Splatty already did, but you can't showcase much of it in a 30 minute dip. kzbin.info/www/bejne/eGOzpHusoLCMaNE

Looks really interesting. I, especially, like how you have to manage your colony and technologies using hdd space and cpu. I'm not an early access player, but I'll definitely remember this one! :)

[@miroz0181]

This is like my DREAM game! I'd love to see a RPG version like subnautica and your the AI with 1 body and trying to fix/build your ship😁

[@Diree]

How many space ship construction games are there?!

[@patrick-aka-patski]

5 minutes into the video: "man, this looks confusing and boring" 10 minutes later: "this is the best game ever!!"

[@TheSpaghettiMan32]

Oh my god please play more of this!!!

[@grynnreaper6266]

could you not repurpose the core heat to heat the base?

(2:22) Your ship is a mess.

[@dflatt1783]

Please tell me there are z levels?

[@SodAlmighty]

Seems not.

[@mysticmallachi777]

You can't fault the developer for not wanting their game to be called "just spaceship Rimworld" by the people that play it. Being excessively derivative could cause middling reviews, no matter how distinct certain systems or robust certain ideas are.

[@shinjutsu2773]

reminds me strongly of the spaceship mod in rimworld. I had a start like that in that mod and well, it looks and feels very similar thus far xd

[@ZombieHunter1776]

Hi Splattercat can you show this game again ( it had alot updates, from the last time you play this game ) like to se you play this game again ? hope you read this ^^

[@cmdrschime4840]

[@JustanOlGuy]

Stargod Cool...

[@JosephHarner]

Ah yes... consuming steel for energy. Steel, which is famously composed mainly of iron. Iron does have exothermic chemical reactions, such as rusting or burning, though these require a second product like *air*, which you seem to lack in space. Can't be fission/fusion either.. Iron is the tipping point for energy potential across fission and fusion. Any element heavier than iron will require more energy to fusion than you will gain, and element lighter will require more energy to fission than you would gain. Meaning that fission and fusion of iron are both impossible for energy production. It's uphill either way. Matter-annihilation is possible, and a damn good power source if you can somehow make it work, but that makes fusion look trivial in comparison. Not all hope is lost, though. Steel is typically ~1% carbon, which *can* produce energy through fusion. Bit of a wasteful process to consume steel just for its carbon content, but whatever.

[@isitanos]

I'm sure they found a conveniently placed deposit of anti-iron which for some reason is stable.

[@baltimora2054]

Nice game

[@waswong4160]

let's go!!

[@Supernaught00]

I'm leaving this comment... for engagement. May the algorithm favor you.

[@lucidnonsense942]

How does venting heat into vacuum work? Like that well known cooling device, the Thermos? Good grief devs...

[@isitanos]

Thermos adds reflective surfaces to reduce radiation, so it obviously would work to some extent. Though not as efficiently as if you add some fluid or gas to move the heat faster.

They should've made this game in normal 2D graphics. Not pixelated graphics.

[@corediagram8016]

@@robertotenreiro No I'm not. I don't like Minecraft solely because of the graphics. Half the time I can not make out what I'm looking at. This game's graphics is better than Minecraft but it still poses a similar visual fuzziness. The gameplay seems interesting and if it had a basic 2D graphics, it would be better.

[@corediagram8016]

@@Marko25Polo And some people think they know everything about a better idea. Ideas are meant to be posed. Not everyone can look at mud and see distinct shapes. And although this game's graphics is better than a muddy game like Minecraft, it still poses a graphical fuzziness where objects and assets are fuzzy and you have to actually focus hard to distinguish shapes. That's the hallmark of pixelated games. I know because my eyes got spoiled via playing really ancient SEGA games on it's console for one whole summer during my adolescent years. Don't blabber and generalize about everyone and assume that you know better.

[@robertotenreiro]

@@corediagram8016 hum... ok... I guess everyone is entitled to their opinion. I dunno how it would look as 2D but as it is, it looks really good. As for minecraft, I could never play it because of the minimalist graphics, I understand it exists to stimulate creativity, but it just doesn't do it for me.
