What's New in Driftbound

1.9.17

November 3, 2026

Late-game mission improvements: selected assignments now count new activity instead of earlier kills or production. Coalition standing orders need 12 and 18 fresh kills. Existing mission progress is preserved, with clearer progress labels. Three new perks let you uncover a lost ship, repair with scrap, or restart shields at a hull cost. Free dockside perk resets, clearer perk cards, and rebalanced early gear and combat recovery. Previously earned gear stays yours. Retains the VoiceOver navigation and scrolling improvements from 1.9.16.

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.
