What's New in Driftbound

1.9.3

September 15, 2026

Driftbound 1.9.3: every war Order can be finished. About one in five Front systems has no station, and Take Patrol lived only on a station's War page. A "Break the line" Order in one of those systems had nothing to press, and it set course for the system's star. In a system with no station, Take Patrol now shows wherever you are parked. The Order sets course for the Front instead of the star, and the note under it says the system has no station.

Quite Fun!

I always look for idle crafting/trading games, and this hits the spot! You can choose to either go on an adventure, collect bounties, or just trade things! You can play your way!

Fantastic new entry

A fun and relaxing retro space idle game where you can battle pirates, mine ores, and explore the galaxy at your own pace. The simple graphics and music give it a charming nostalgic feel, while missions and ship upgrades keep things interesting. A great start for a new entry into the store with plenty of potential.
