Thanks for the suggestion!

The game is very finicky with the files in the save directory. You can try backing them up, moving them elsewhere, and bringing them back one by one. See if that helps.

I don't have a price yet for the game.

Glad you like the progress updates :) I'll keep posting more as I work on the game.

Thank you for your comment! I'll keep co-op in mind as I keep working on the game :)

I plan to add settings for lower end PCs, but I wouldn't expect a big fps boost.

Is the game running slowly for you all the time or is it only in specific areas or when building a large ship?

Of course! Feel free to share it here or on our Discord afterward :)

Thank you <3 I took note of your suggestions, and some of them I've implemented already! For example, here's a new model I made for the mining laser: https://bsky.app/profile/curiousowldev.bsky.social/post/3lm33f33csk2p

I'm glad to see you joined the Discord, too :)

Thank you for the suggestions!

Thank you <3

Thank you so much! Making the game simple and easy to get into was a big goal I had, and I'm always happy to see when people notice.

Thanks for the encouragement, and I hope you tag along for the rest of development.

Thanks <3 I'm glad you both enjoyed it!

Thank you! Did you end up playing it?

There is only one other planet, so the chances you'll stumble upon it are extremely low hahaha

You can use the tracking computer, star map, or simply look for a little orange dot in the night sky.

I don't know yet.

Thanks for clarifying that! I should do announcements on Itch too to keep you guys in the loop.

The new version will be more demanding on your PC for sure. I'll see if I can add graphical settings to keep it playable for everyone.

Hi! Thanks for your comment <3

I don't plan to update this alpha for the time being, as I'm focused on a Steam page + demo. You can look forward to the demo for different content & visual improvements!

I took note of your suggestion on your other comment for spacesuits/tubes when you're outside in space. Thanks.

I plan to do customizable keybinds. Controllers or hotas might come later, but they're not my focus right now.

Hello! Thanks for the modding suggestion. You can find your save files here:

C:\Users\(YOUR_USER)\AppData\LocalLow\CuriousOwlGames\StellarDrive\saves

Hi :) Thank you for your suggestions! I took note of them.

For giving an item, you can either use the free build cheat with F2 (you have to enable dev tools in the options menu first) or you can edit your save file located in "C:\Users\(YOUR_USER)\AppData\LocalLow\CuriousOwlGames\StellarDrive\saves"

Thanks for the suggestion! The game won't prevent you from having 10 players, but it is not very optimized for that. You might encounter issues like high bandwidth usage and lag.

That's why I recommend sticking to 4 players for now, even if the game has no hard limit.

You can't manually stack items right now. You could drop your item in a chest and then shift + click it to retrieve it. It will automatically try to stack if iirc. 

Mac support is not planned at the moment.

Thank you <3

Thank you for your comment! I'm not prioritizing VR right now, but it might be a possibility in the future. I'll keep that in mind.

I'm currently focused on a Steam version and its demo. You can look forward to those for new content :)

I don't know yet.

I don't know yet, but you can check my Discord or bluesky for development progress :)

Thanks! That means a lot <3

Thank you!

I intend on making it paid, but you'll be able to keep playing this version for free :) 

I want to release a demo too at some point. It will be similar to this, but with improved visuals.

Hi. Thanks for checking out the game.  You can check the Discord too for development progress.

1. VR might be possible, although it's not something I'm planning at the moment.

2. I'm currently focusing on polishing and setting up a Steam page for the game. The next playable version will probably be a demo once that is done.

Noted :)

Thank you for your comment & suggestion! I'm glad you guys are enjoying the game :)

Thank you <3 the bug you're facing with the environment not showing is due to Intel integrated GPU. Until I manage to fix the issue, you can try on a better PC if possible.

Thank you for your comment and suggestion :)

Thank you so much!!! I'm glad you guys enjoyed it <3

It might work in the game. Thanks for the suggestion :)

The 3 you see are the only ones in the game currently.

I'm currently working toward a Steam release :) you can check my social media links on the page for short progress gifs.

I took note of the logic gate suggestion. It's something I want to look into :)

You can find it on the red planet. It's a bit hard to see so you'll have to fly around and look carefully.
