Grimstar: Crystals are the New Oil!

 
Grimstar: Release DateDec 27, 2023 - Community AnnouncementsHello RTS fans! As you've probably noticed, we've pushed back the release date of Full Version to Q1 next year. My goal is to make the Full Version of the game better using all the feedback you provide. Aside from identifying the key issues and improving all aspects of the game, your input helps us greatly with optimizations and bug fixing. As you can guess all of this takes a lot of time (especially when only one guy develops a game (-;)), so we have to move the release date of the Full Version once more. I hope you understand that I strive for the highest quality possible when the Full Version is released. At the beginning of December, we released Version 1.3.0 of the Free Version, which includes all optimizations. Please test it and let me know what you think. As I mentioned, this would also be very helpful in improving the Full Version. Here is a video with excerpts from a few missions from the full version as a small consolation: See you soon, Commander!Join us in celebrating Steam Strategy Fest!Aug 27, 2023 - Community Announcements{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40670625/fd42f40a71c988079e4c740ae3adc51415724430.jpg Greetings space lovers!

Thank you for all your feedback during development! MORE ABOUT GRIMSTAR and THE RELEASE Welcome to the savage planet acts as a Prologue for Grimstar: Crystals are the New Oil! You can play the first five missions of the single player campaign. This prologue version will showcase a fresh cartoon graphic style which complements the gameplay mechanics. The following is a short summary of what I have changed for the final release version based on your feedback: New Cartoon Graphic Style I've switched to a cartoon graphic style since it appears much nicer and the maps are now much clearer. Alternate victory condition As an alternative to collecting all the crystals on the map, you can find and destroy all the enemies' caves. You can try it if you are brave enough, but it will be more challenging. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40833159/f93249fdaa04423a8d3748d6e36b3debdcab6e24.jpg Level Up System In addition, the game features a leveling up system. The amount of crystals you have at the end of each mission determines the experience reward. Therefore, playing as effectively as possible makes sense. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40833159/6e14ead72cc2ef9c23c9efa131b8c73044b31023.png Hero Units The Game also includes the first Hero Unit. Leveling up, calling Bombers for support, and using a shield are among the things he can do. However, Hero Units are only available if you have completed the tutorial and the first mission. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40833159/2a474d99de1bc04bba796c0bf6cbac4caf0ab129.png There are also tons of bug fixes. I hope you have a good time playing the game. Don't miss the release and make the company proud! Still not added to your wishlist? Well, it's time to do it!

Build your base in a hostile environment, train your army, gather resources, defend your mining operations. The more you mine - the more hostile the alien environment will become. Your ultimate goal is to completely colonize the uncharted world. The story: Year 3047, the elected government on Earth is long gone. Megacorporations are in control. The earth’s resources are depleted, and the energy crisis is imminent. But there is still hope – a discovery of a distant world, which is rich in a new kind of natural energy resource. The name of the new world is “Grimstar”. Inhabited by only primitive creatures, it seemed an easy prey for aggressive colonisation and mining… But they were deceived.
