Starbase - Space Battle Footage

Development team tests ship combat in two new videos


We've got two new Starbase videos today, captured from a development team test session held last week. One video is a highight reel and the other has around four minutes of unedited gameplay footage from one of the players' point of view.

The goal of the test was to have a small scale battle with various spaceships and handheld weapons in a simulated combat scenario between the two developer factions, the Empire and Kingdom.

We're now ramping up test sessions gradually to prepare for bigger in-house events and pre-alpha tests, before opening up the game to larger audiences in Early Access sometime in 2019.

Feature Video - Asteroid Mining

This video focuses on one of the first things you'll get to do in the game - asteroid mining!

Asteroids are in high demand since they consist of a variety of materials which are used for building mostly everything in the game. The surface material of the asteroids is useful as a cheap building material for stations and such, and the core can contain valuable metals and other materials which are used in the making of, for example, spaceships, electronics, and ammunition.
