Space is big. Vastly, hugely, mindbogglingly big. And you have to complete a dangerous mission, conquer space and return to Earth with resources. But be careful, space is fraught with many secrets and dangers. To start the game, just press the "Start" button, select a level and go! Build the most optimal route and don’t forget to grab resources to open more and more levels. Ahh... and don't worry, the levels are randomly generated, so you won't get bored. Good luck!
