Random Space is a game of survival in the wild space. You suffered a wreck in an unknown system due to spacecraft failure. Everything you have is an emergency accommodation module and a heap of scrap. But by good fortune, you are an engineer and you have a clever pair of hands. Upgrade your habitation, build assisting robots, collect enough resources and build a spacecraft. To come home, you will have to visit all planets to determine your current location. In addition, you need to breathe, sleep and eat – remember about it! Design your spacecraft, save every drop of fuel, every tomato sprout and every gulp of air. Nobody knows for how long you will have to stay here. Follow planet movement to make a flight at the right moment when they move closer. Build and again build, upgrade, get and remember about your own needs. It will be a unique experience for every player – the star system is generated in an unpredictable manner, starting with visual parameters up to physical peculiarities of planets. Methods to survive on every planet differ – required resources available, amount of luminous energy, atmosphere availability, force of gravity, and surface area. Tune in the beat of the atmosphere of unknown planets and loneliness. I hope you will like this story. However, it depends on you whether the wild space will be friendly with you...

Space Trek 2150 - A Super Starship game The year is 2150. You are captain of your own starship. Explore a universe of one million stars and 18 million planets and moons. Each star has a unique solar system with planets and moons. Are you a fan of No Man's Sky, Star Trek or Space Engine? This simulation was directly inspired by those very genres. The universe is seamless and true to scale. Stars are really light years distance apart from each other. As you approach a star the solar system will become visible and you can visit and land on any planet or moon. It truly is a massive universe.  The entire universe is 212 light years across. If your ship traveled at the speed of light it would take you 212 years to go from end to end. When exploring such a massive universe you will quickly realize just how slow the speed of light really is. Luckily your ship travels much much faster than the speed of light. To start with your ship speed is set to 0.1 light years per second (3,153,333 times the speed of light) and with enough credits the engines can be upgraded to as fast as 1 light year per second. Extreme and exaggerated speeds such as this are needed to explore the simulated universe in a reasonable amount of time. For context The Orville with its Quantum Drive can travel as fast as 10 light years per hour and the Starship Enterprise at warp 10 can only travel at 1,000 times the speed of light or 10 light years in about 4 days. If you are the first to scan a star system you become the owner of that star system. Likewise if you are the first to scan a planet or moon you become the owner of that planet or moon, forever. Other starship captains will see your discoveries and you will see theirs. Space Trek 2150 is all about discovery, not combat. Your ship has no weapons. Gain points by discovering stars, planets and moons. Upgrade your ship by collecting minerals from the planets and moons and cashing them in for credits at a starbase. Use the credits to upgrade your ship. Collect planet beacons for additional points. Complete side missions for points and credits or minerals. Don't forget to refuel your ship and recharge your life support systems along the way. This can be done at any starbase and your ship computer can plot a course for you to the nearest starbase if needed. If you've played my other Super Starship games then you will feel right at home. This game has a whole new universe to explore. Go Forth and Explore the Universe! "Just give me a starship and stars to steer her by" - Les Bird
