33 What Is SpaceCraft
44  
55 SpaceCraft blends open-ended space exploration with deep building and a player-driven economy. You pilot a spaceship through systems filled with planets, asteroid fields, abandoned space stations, and derelict ships, scan and mine for raw materials, craft those materials into ship parts, and assemble custom vessels. You can play toward several fantasies at once: a lone explorer charting forgotten worlds, a wealthy trader working the marketplace, an industrial tycoon automating production, or the leader of a powerful Corporation. The game centers on shared online galaxies, but a separate Solo Offline Mode added after launch lets you play entirely on your own.

From mining to crafting to trading, every action you take influences the world around you. The marketplace is fully player-driven, so supply and demand move prices as players buy and sell.

2529 SpaceCraft has a backstory the developer has shared: humanity, nearly wiped out in a struggle against an enemy called the Tripods, escaped through a mysterious portal to a distant part of the universe and must now rebuild and found a new home. The player begins as an ex-convict working for an organization called The Company, starting on one of its space stations with a single ship and no money. See Setting and Story for the full premise and Space Stations for the hubs where you refine and trade.
