Astrocraft: Prologue

Space station tycoon

Astrocraft: Prologue is a free first-person space station tycoon for PC. You start on a barren asteroid with a mining laser and a gravity generator, then mine ore, process it in machines and open a shop for space travelers. Build the station room by room inside its gravity field, adding factories, shops, habitats and landing pads connected by ramps. Outside the field, you use a jetpack in zero gravity.

Mining and production

Scan asteroids for resources, use explosive charges on tougher rocks, and unlock stronger lasers as your station levels up. Different asteroids yield different ores, crystals and minerals. Smelt ores into ingots and cook chemicals in machines that need to keep running while you mine.
