Outworlder is a sci-fi, sandbox, colony management game with survival elements and direct NPC control. Establish self-sufficient colonies and fulfill the needs of colonists. Engage in physics based gunplay as you travel the stars. Pilot mechs and vehicles, build bases, and interact with wildlife!

## About This Game
Outworlder, you have travelled wearily from some far-flung corner of the
galaxy, across countless light years through the black expanse of space; now
you find yourself crash-landed, your ship torn apart, your body cold, your
stomach hungry, and your eyes searching for your destiny. An open-ended
sandbox awaits you, from nothing you will desperately scavenge and mine for
survival until you command settlements of dutiful underlings, master local
ecosystems, battle interlopers and beast alike, and find hidden truths
scattered across the inhospitable landscapes of alien worlds teeming with
great dangers, and great rewards. Travel the stars to plant your roots across
several worlds and make a name fit for a legend in this sci-fi, survival,
colony management experience!
## Colony Management

Though you begin alone, with very little to your name, Outworlder will provide
you with the opportunity to discover NPCs who will ultimately join you in your
endeavors. Delegate tasks, have them research technology, build items,
maintain base systems, cook food, farm, join you in exploration (and combat!),
and defend your bases from raiders, alien entities, and other vicious enemies.
Build them a base of operations, provide your base with power, food, heating,
entertainment, and comfort to meet their needs. Recruit specialized NPCs such
as gunsmiths, doctors, cooks, radio operators, administrators, engineers, and
countless more. Find friends, convert some, bribe others, and, worst case
scenario, capture the more difficult ones and convince them to join your
cause. Build the perfect, efficient colony. A place to call home.
## Survival

Feel the sting of cold, the sear of heat, or the glow of radiation as you make
your way across varied planets with their own unique conditions. Craft (or
have your colonists craft for you) the equipment you need and outfit yourself
for the challenges ahead, along with any friends you choose to bring with you.
Outworlder offers living, breathing worlds with animals and creatures who
interact with each other, harbor differing player interactions, and perform
unique, distinguishable behaviors.
Make your way across planets covered with sheets of ice, blankets of desert
sand, oceans of water, or far more strange, alien environs. Survival will
demand vigilance. Keep an eye on your temperature and your need for
sustenance. Battle maladies such as poisoning, bleeding, and sickness.
And keep in mind, your colonists have all the needs you do.
## Space Exploration

Once you’ve established a foothold on your first planet, reach for the stars
and travel through space with your very own starships – all with unique
classes and designs. Build shuttlecraft that can ferry resources between
starship and planet-bound colonies, or fill them with vehicles or mechs to
facilitate exploration across the faces of alien planets.
Find derelict starship wrecks, make contact with space stations and moon
bases, explore alien ghost ships, and of course, make planetfall in order to
expand your interstellar empire.
Who knows what treasures you will find, or even new friends for your colonies?

## CURRENT STATUS

Thus far we have the rudiments of colony management implemented, NPC
recruitment, needs fulfillment, and etcetera. Space travel is not yet
implemented, nor are vehicles or Z-doors. More varied biomes are incoming, as
are other amenities such as farming. NPCs can be automated to complete basic
orders assigned at work benches. This is a very early stage in our
development. Keep an eye on our updates to follow development as more features
are implemented.
