Starbase

Description

Grow a pressurised can bolted to an asteroid into a galactic nexus.

STARBASE is an incremental game built for the long haul. Mine by hand for a minute, then let drones, smelters and trade docks take over. Seven tiers of station modules, a fleet you build ship by ship, real-time expeditions from three minutes to a week, alien battles with rare blueprint drops, star-scale megaprojects that take days, and two prestige layers (colonies and Federations) that carry your legacy forward. The station itself is drawn in real-time 3D from your actual save. Drag to orbit it, scroll to zoom.

Offline progress is applied when you come back, at a reduced rate. Saves live in your browser; export/import is in Settings.

AI declaration: the game’s code, balance simulation and 3D models were written with the help of an AI assistant, directed and play-tested by the developer. No AI-generated art assets are used; all graphics are procedural.

Target age rating: Everyone (all ages). Contains mild abstract sci-fi ship combat with no blood or gore, no strong language, no gambling, no chat or user-generated content.

Comment jouer

Click the asteroid (or the MINE button) to mine ore by hand. Buy a Mining Drone as soon as you can afford one; from there the station runs itself and you spend your time deciding what to build next.

Ore is smelted into Alloy, Alloy is traded for Credits, and Research Labs turn power into Research. Everything except drones needs Power, so keep Solar Arrays and Reactors ahead of demand or your modules run slow.

Spend Research in the Research tab to unlock new station tiers, ships and expeditions. Ships need a Shipyard for berths and Crew from your Habitats. Expeditions run in real time and pay out based on your production; make sure you have enough exploration and combat power before you launch.

Battles: pick a faction, choose which ships to send, and fight in Auto or Manual mode. In Manual you can change stance mid-fight or retreat. Ships destroyed in battle are gone. Wins pay salvage and can drop rare alien blueprints.

When you have a Colony Ship, Found a Colony from the Legacy tab to start over with a permanent bonus. Colonies pay more Legacy the longer they have been running. Later, charter a Federation for a second layer of permanent upgrades.

Station view: drag to orbit, scroll to zoom. The game keeps running while you’re away at a reduced rate, and it saves automatically in your browser. Export and import your save from Settings.
