Steam Space Battleship Construction Sim COSMOTEER early access has been launched, and overwhelmingly popular is performed.

On October 25, the developer Alternate Realities has launched an early access distribution of the space battleship construction simulation game Commuter: Starship Architect & Commander on PC (Steam). The price is 2480 yen. This work seems to have gained great popularity.

COMMUTER: Starship Architect & Commander is a simulation game that builds space battleships to explore space, battle and collect resources with enemy ships. In addition to solo play, cooperation and multiplayer match can be performed. A highly flexible tool is prepared for the construction of a space battleship, and various modules are combined in a 2D style with a view-looking viewpoint. While placing weapons, engines, passages, and residential areas of crew, they form their own spaceships. The performance in the navigation and battle changes depending on which module is loaded.

In battles with enemy ships, fight using weapons such as missiles and lasers. It is important to fight strategically, such as eliminating armed and reducing defense with the aim of eliminating armed with attacks, for example, to eliminate armed. While doing such battles and resources, we will further strengthen our ships.

In addition, this work also provides crew management elements. Space battleships operate by giving them a role and doing work. For example, in a weapon module, it requires not only the operations but also the personnel that carry ammunition. It is said that the performance in battles etc. will change depending on whether the number of crew members can be managed efficiently.

At the moment, about a week has passed since the start of early access distribution, this work has gained overwhelmingly popular status in Steam user reviews. It seems that the ease of handling spacecraft construction tools, battle elements that challenge enemy ships while devising, and relatively easy crew management elements are highly evaluated. Looking at the number of simultaneous connected players on Steam, the number of players gradually increased from the launch and exceeded 11,000 at the peak (Steam DB). This is the number that is within the top 100 of Steam, and it can be said that it is quite strong.

In the future of this work, we will first make bug corrections and balance adjustments, and then add more missions, modules, between power, and PVP mode. It also mentions hinge parts that change the shape of the spaceship, the dispute elements between crew members, and the addition of transport drones. For more information, check the roadmap.

COMMUTER: Starship Architect & Commander is being distributed early for PC (Steam). According to the developer, it is expected to have an early access distribution period of about one year until the official release.
