About
Star Birds is a relaxing factory building and resource management game where you mine asteroids and create production networks. Level by level, you guide your crew to new star systems, each one coming with its own challenges: frosty cold, scorching heat and … wait, is that an alien tentacle?!
No matter if you're a genre veteran or new to factory builders: the Star Birds are happy to have you by their side. The universe is puzzling, and chaos would ensue very quickly without you.

Scan and claim nearby asteroids to mine resources ranging from ice and metals to rather obscure things. Build production facilities and automate the manufacturing of increasingly advanced goods. Deliver products to your space station to fulfill quests that satisfy the needs of your birds, however odd these might be. Establish transportation routes to create a bustling cosmic production network, advance your technology and ultimately take off to foreign star systems to pursue the mysteries of your galaxy!


360° Base Building
Place buildings on procedurally generated asteroids and build your own little worlds floating in space. Use each asteroid's unique shape and available surface to create the perfect production network. Take the role of a cosmic pioneer and strategically place and connect production facilities with hand-drawn-pipes to optimize your resource flow.
Explore and Experiment
Gather resources and explore different ways to transform and combine them into a variety of goods you're going to need for your mission. Investigate the asteroid's surface, overcome unforeseen obstacles and excavate mysterious artifacts.
Missions and Mysteries
Follow strange traces and lead your crew to uncover a big secret awaiting you in the far reaches of your galaxy. Explore and master the oddities of foreign star systems to conclude this adventurous journey.
Automate and Admire
Establish an ever-growing network of production chains throughout your star system. Improve and optimize, or sit back and watch the satisfying rhythm of your bustling space factory.
Collect and Complete
Fill your collection with all the things you find on your journey! Take on bonus challenges and earn shiny medals for perfecting your setup.
Set out for the stars!
Upgrade your space station and research advanced technologies. Unlock new production paths and increase their efficiency to start your journey into the unknown depths of space and uncover its mysteries!

Star Birds is made by Toukana Interactive, creators of Dorfromantik, and the curiosity sparking animation studio kurzgesagt – in a nutshell. A match made in space, but also in Germany. With each side extending the other a wing, this collaboration has gone from bad puns about fruit to creating a colorful space mining operation that we're proud to send our birds on.
Speaking of: No birds were harmed in the creation of this game, we promise!

This game is about to get finished in the next big patch it seems so this review is perhaps a bit premature, but always better to get it out right after " finishing " the main campaign and a few Free play rounds. One of the first games i finished fully playing on the Steam Machine with a Steam controller and it worked pretty well. As this is an obvious mouse+kb only PC game in the earlier days i just thought i'd mention it as a little compliment to the dev in making the game controller work so well in a game like this. Speaking of which....Toukana has my girlfriend hooked on their Dorfromantic for years now it seems and i am not disappointed in this great base building puzzle game ....not really sure how to classify this than perhaps cozy RTS ? semantics tbh.... i loved every minute and encountered a few bugs dealing with placement and routing of buildings and pipes and such. Keep up the debugging and perhaps smooth out the issues with ramps and pipe routing in particular i'd say as it takes a few tries to get it how you'd like it. The only real issue i had was perhaps a skill issue as i couldn;t figure out the last unlocked building that can differentiate a material from the rest......no idea how to make that work and i tried but missed the option in the place i'd expect it....... but let's not shoot anyone here...these are minor details compared to the very good job this game took to get where it is now so more in the hopes they fix this on my certain return on release day. Considering the whole atmosphere of the game itself I feel the signature of Kurzgesagt is very obvious and mixes great with the fun challenge this game has turned out to be, including the goofy stuff straight from some of their YT videos and i don't mean just the birds but also the cheekyness, i guess i'd call it, and it adds a little depth to it all which works very well. No final judgements yet but quite promising and go for it if you do not mind the Early Access.....Hardly a game wasted prematurely as it seems a great game to return to when released and start with a fresh save. I had a feeling....I kept every big level reward still locked just for that purpose as i suspected this game has great potential to be that little game you return to when you just want some uncomplicated complication if that makes sense ;)

This and every other Pro feature is free until October 20, 2026. A free account is all it takes.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 24 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 9 places towards #1, and the 2,404 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

ntm if it was in space 10/10
One of those great puzzle games, simple to learn but hard to optimize. Great if you like stuff like Factorio.
Very fun the strategic element is very engaging and the concept is very fun it reminds me of factorio a little
