About
Unnamed Space Idle is an unfolding, sci-fi idle game that plunges you into a relentless battle against an alien menace that has decimated humanity. Customize your ship with an array of progressively unlocked weapons and defenses, strategically tailored to counter specific enemy types. With a plethora of unfolding systems and abundant options, you'll face crucial choices as you steadily increase you power through progression and prestige.

Discover over 10 distinct systems, each offering unique mechanics that evolve and expand over time.
Core - Upgrade your Weapon, Defense and Utility cores with salvage gathered from enemies.
Compute - Improve your combat stats over time in traditional Idle Game fashion
Synth - Craft and improve modules and recipes to increase your power in various ways.
Void Device - Slot in void shards dropped by enemies for different combinations of upgrades.
Prestige - Unlock different ships, weapons, defenses and utilities.
Reactor - Feed void matter into your reactor to power various system boosts.
Research - Harness the research data obtained from different sectors to unlock various upgrades.
Warp - Warp to special enemy locations to harvest essence for upgrades in a massive tree.
And More...

Choose wisely when equipping your ship with weapons and defenses, selecting power-altering modules, or determining the optimal combination of shards to use. The distinction between optimal and sub-optimal choices can significantly impact your progress. But while there are a lot of decisions to be made, they are all plainly understandable so that the optimum, or at least very near optimum decision making is within your grasp!

Well paced progression combined with the amount of different systems, upgrades and enemies, means something new is frequently just around the corner.

I havent got too far into it yet, but this looks like a really cool idle game! Alot of idlers progress way too fast, or way too slow. USI seems to be in the Goldilocks zone... Buy it! haha
Неожиданно интересная игра, несмотря на примитивную визуальную составляющую. Хочется только попросить разработчика перевести то, что не переведено с английского. Да и игра уже 3 года в EA висит. Может, уже пора? :)
It's in the name: IDLE! Hope into the game at least once a day, do your chores, close out, repeat. Yes, it's fun to watch your ship shoot other ships, but this is an IDLE GAME! you are technically not supposed to actively play. Get the right upgrades, and the game practically plays itself. Which is the point of an idle game... Or you can do what I am currently doing which is let it run 24/7. Yep, at the time of this review, the game has been running non-stop for the entire duration. Running now as I type this review. Which for my system, is quite the feat. Most other idle games are resource intensive enough that it requires me to shut them off every so often. The fact my system is running the game non-stop without issue is really amazing for me. And I do not plan to stop it now. ANYWAY, getting back to the review after that tangent. Again, this is an idle game. Yes, there are things you manually have to do, but the point of this game is not to sit there and actively play it. If the game feels like it is getting slow, go do something else. The game, while closed, will collect resources for you for 1 full day, or 4 full days if you unlock that quality of life for 50 AI Points (earnable points in game). So you have the ability to go play something else while the game does its thing. However, like most idle games, there are still things you need to manage on your own, that the game won't do for you. Which is fine it's part of, or at least, should be part of, what brings people back to the game anyway. Many things can, and will be automated, if you purchase the right items from the AI store (the AI Points). Unlike most Idle Games, Prestige is not as important. Not to say it is completely useless, there is one system in the game that grants bonuses only when you Prestige, but until you have that system unlocked prestige takes a backseat. You get a lovely feature called "Retrofit," which lets you swap out your ship and/or your ship's weapons, shields, and utilities, as you see fit; though retrofit comes at the cost of reducing your core systems back to 0, requiring you to upgrade them again. But hey, it's a very nice feature when you aren't ready to prestige just yet, USE IT! There are only 2 conditions, in which you can meet either or, in which you should prestige outright: 1. You have 0 Retrofits left, and you do not wish to spend points, or burn a ticket for another (yes you can spend AI Points in the AI store for more retrofits, but these aren't permanent and will be lost upon prestige if not used). 2. You have the system unlocked that only grants bonuses when you prestige and you are ready to gain the accumulated bonus(es). With all that said, there is one gripe I have with the game. Despite the helpful guide, that tells you how each system works as you unlock them, the systems are not intuitive at all. Even with the in game helpful guide, I still have to do trial and error to figure out how the systems actually work. But by god, once you know how each system works, it is not all that difficult to create an OP ship of mass destruction. I am going to reiterate this one more time: THIS IS AN IDLE GAME! You do not need to actively play to gain benefits. If you are finding the game sluggish, turn it off, and go play something else, and come back to it.

Hundreds of hours playing this baby. A real gem.
I love idle games but there are two big problems with most of them. They are either too short or incredibly boring. Let me tell you, this one is neither. I dont think I can put this game aside any time soon. The progression is fun and there is so much to unlock. There is no unnecessary offline cap. You instantly get a full day of offline earnings. In general you can achieve all the "premium" AI upgrades without paying if you just play long enough. I dont know much about the Devs but they seem super genuine and I can only recommend this game for all the idle lovers out there!
Endless layers of optimization. You can play it passively daily, or you can min/max like, 30 different interconnected systems for hours. Really well thought out and just when you think you have it figured out, the game changes and you have a completely different set of things you need to figure out how to optimize.
Did not seem fun to me.

injured my middle finger gaming too hard, too long. Idle gaming got as close to scratching an itch while I recovered as I knew how to get. This one came highly rated and it is, indeed, addictive. Makes me want to bone up on my coding and make an idle game myself. Was critical not to be too much of a clicking game and it isn't. I'll be playing this one for awhile.
