SpaceSlog - A spaceship colony exploration sim

This looks fantastic! It gives me serious Space Haven and RimWorld vibes. I’m eagerly awaiting its release!

Thanks :). Several people have referenced Space Haven, even though i have Space Haven and have played it, i never thought about the similarities.

It sounds great but I can’t get it on steam what do I do.

The crew of cargo ship #279 wanted to wish everyone a Merry Christmas!

Hey everyone, SpaceSlog demo is back up on Steam for another week if anyone wanted to give it a go :slight_smile:

You are really leaning into the Rimworld vibes :sweat_smile:

The same way Rimworld did Dwarf Fortress and Prison Architect?

Rimworld started off looking very similar to PA, until they had some money behind them to do their own thing. It also borrows a lot of features from DF and probably wouldn’t be what it is today, if at all, if not for DF.
I’ve had quite a few people ‘complain’ about the similarities. But if I didn’t leverage what’s already out there, I would never have been able to make this type of game because it just takes too much time, effort and money.

That said, everything is our own and we have developed the art in a different perspective and slightly different style (Ours is mostly made from 3D models, as opposed to hand drawn).

We do follow some similar design principles for the art, because as I said, money and time. Plus those design principles were actually coined by PA, not Rimworld.

Although, I do also make it no secret SpaceSlog is heavily influenced by these games. As Rimworld did DF, we have also borrowed features from DF and Rimworld and other games too.
