A physics-based mining sim, set in the thickest debris field in Sol. Every action has a reaction, lasers are invisible without a medium, and your thrust is a potent weapon. Find trade, adapt your equipment to your playstyle, hire a crew to help. Unravel the mysteries of the rings, or just get rich.

About

You are a captain of an independent asteroid excavation ship, operating in the mineral-rich rings of Saturn - the thickest debris field in our solar system. Your task is to navigate rings, excavate minerals, and sell the ore at the Enceladus station.

You can hire and manage your crew who will aid you, update your ship - or switch to a completely new one. You can acquire a bounty hunter licence, explore mysteries or smuggle weapons - but at the core, you are a rock-hopper and rock-hopping is what you’ll spend most of your time at. And since it is the core of this game, we made sure you’ll have a great time flying your ship and excavating.
You are no chosen one, the story does not revolve around you - it is driven by the characters you hire and encounter, and each playthrough will play out differently. You can choose to investigate and embrace their lives, or just ignore them. It’s all up to you.
Tired of having more Fiction than Science? Here you will find lasers are not visible without a medium, sound does not move through the void of the empty space and every action has an equal and opposite reaction. Thrusters eject gas that heats up and pushes away objects, your reactor is cooled by propellant flowing through it and radiators glow when you pump heat into them.

There are no energy shields, teleporters and Heisenberg compensators. No lightspeed, no blasters, and no artificial gravity. Instead, we have fission reactors, thermal rockets, ion thrusters and centrifugal gravity. You'll have hard decisions to make, with no "best" equipment to answer every need.
All technologies are real and there is no technobabble. But it’s still a game and one that is fun to play.
ΔV is in active development, with new stable updates coming out each week, and experimental ones getting pushed out daily. Many ideas you’ll find in the game come from players and it is not uncommon to suggest something on our discord - and see it in the game next week. Our player community consists of enthusiasts geeks, engineering and science-fiction nerds, and if that sounds like your kind of crowd - come to our discord, chat with us, and see how the game unfolds in real-time.

The event-driven nature of our storytelling means that we can expand our stories and enrich your experience seamlessly - while you are still playing. There is no need to start a new save, new events, equipment and features will just appear as you go.

nice chill game, can play for hours and relax, or make it exciting, it's up to you. supports controllers. I tried playing with a HOTAS and the controls need some work, but it's enjoyable.
This game scratches the itch I have after finishing Children of a Dead Earth. A great example of a hard sci-fi space sim. Once again, it shows that you don't need to zip all over the galaxy to have a rich sci-fi setting. So many things can happen merely in rings around Saturn.
dunno what to say very worth it big fun much content every step forward feels substantial
Un par de horas han sido suficiente para ver el potencial que tiene este videojuego, las físicas y el sistema de control de la nave son una delicia pero no es para mí. Es sorprendente lo inmersivo que puede ser un título en el que hay tan poca cosa a simple vista. Algo negativo que tiene el juego es que tiene pinta de necesitar de varias horas hasta que le pilles el truco y por lo que he podido ver leyendo a gente que lo ha probado parece que estoy en lo cierto. Si te gustan este tipo de juegos te va a encantar y encima es barato de narices, en cambio, si no te llaman demasiado la atención te pasará como a mí.
le jeux est incroyable. la physique est aux petits onion et le jeux est assez beau. ACHETER LE M A I N T E N A N T
Space mining grounded as much as possible in realism. Game feels fair, a lot of things are configurable, and balance is good for multiple ways of playing the game. No performance issues.

Cheap and very fun! I love it.
Znalazłem grę przypadkiem. Darmowe demo z pełną zawartością pozwoliło mi poznać się z mechaniką gry, kosmiczne górnictwo wciągało mnie coraz mocniej, aż w końcu stwierdziłem, że czas nabyć swój egzemplarz gry bo godziny lecą, a rozbijanie asteroid bawi ciągle tak samo dobrze. Polecam każdemu, jak opanuje się sterowanie statkiem to latanie od skały do skały przy spokojnej muzyce są bardzo relaksujące.
Reaction and physics game. Resource gathering (well... money), ship building, some fighting, some friend making, asteroids, pirates. Has cats... kind of (see DLC). If you want a game where you need to focus on a task(s) for a long time - this is it. Also easily a 100h+ gameplay (even though I'm only 20h in, I can feel it).
