Astral Rogue
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
A strategy game inspired by "FTL: Faster than Light" and "Rimworld".
As a refugee fleeing from the galactic federation, you must refuel your spaceship on alien planets scattered across the vastness of space. Utilize your limited time effectively to collect as much sulphuric quartz as possible. If the federation catches up to you, your journey ends.
Sulphuric quartz is the essential resource in this universe, powering everything from robots to spaceship fuel. You must strategically decide whether to invest quartz into creating more robots or converting it into fuel for your escape.
Robots are your indispensable allies, mining quartz at your command. Direct them to specific locations, and they will continue mining until the quartz is depleted. Your ship's computer can manage a maximum of 99 robots simultaneously.
The game features a tile-based isometric view and randomly generated maps. Exponential growth is crucial: build robots to mine more quartz, enabling you to construct even more robots.
