About Space Engineers

About this game

Developed and published by Keen Software House.

In Space Engineers, you'll go to other planets and gather resources so you can construct all sorts of phenomenal things! From vehicles to outposts! Explore the planets around space and try to survive them as you build and engineer all sorts of things!

Authentic

Everything in the game features a realistic, volumetric-based physics engine, which means you can assemble, disassemble, and even destroy or damage everything! Items behave life-like, as they'll have mass, inertia, and velocity. Even individual modules have real volume and storage capacity!

Safer Together

Invite up to 15 others to join you in your adventures through space! You can all play it as a survival shooter, or you can just focus on exploring the world and constructing all kinds of stuff. Regardless, you can do so with others!

True-to-life!

Space Engineers aim to be as authentic as possible — from every item being destructible and having properties to the down-to-earth futurism: you won't find technologies that wouldn't be feasible in the near future.

Different Modes

Whether you want to play the game in a more relaxed way or take it on as a survival experience, you'll be able to choose, thanks to the different game modes! Try Creative and Survival modes to find what you like the most!

It's You!

Make yourself in-game, as you're able to customise your character, including their gender!

Steam Workshop

Space Engineers is a lot about freedom and fun, so you'll be able to jump into the Steam Workshop and browse through others' creations as well as upload your own. And it doesn't stop there either, as there's also a modding API!

And Much More!

There are a ton of other things in the game, such as exploring planets and moons, custom worlds, cities, procedural asteroids, visual script editor, weapons, and factions... there is a lot!

Seems cool so far, very customisable. UI of blocks is a little unintuitive, why start on block properties or storage and not the items in it? A little daunting at first, but I've found it fun

This game is a prototypical sandbox. If you want to build massive ships with your friends and then fight each other it's pretty great. If you want to play it as a survival game it's a little more threadbare. Modding can fill some gaps but the survival experience is still not very fleshed out.

An alarm and depressurization jerks you awake out of hyper-sleep, you hear alarms blaring in your ear and the ship computer yelling at you that there was a collision, life support systems are failing and oxygen levels are at 58%. You crawl out of your sleep pod just before your thrown off your feet. Another collision. Somehow the ship must have gone right through an asteroid field. As you step through the door in to the crews quarters you see your locker. and your gear. "I guess I got to go fix this mess!" you think as you put your suit and helmet on. You grab your pack of tools and an extra oxygen tank, just in case and head to the airlock!

I truly enjoy the learning curve in this game, trying to figure out how to build things to solve your problems. I would like more survival and NPC elements in the game to add more challenges outside of the engineering aspect. There are lots of mods available to help change and tailor the game to suit how you want to play.
