It's been about a decade since I first started prototyping a space game - one where you'd start off with a small ship and trade resources. Two games, three game engines and 15,000 copies sold later, here am I with a new life where I don't quite have the time for such work anymore. Deimos Games will be shutting down this year. Both Helium Rain and Astral Shipwright will be going free-to-play, so that new players can still experience them in the future. As a reminder, both are also open-source, so if you were going to build anything based on these projects, you now have access to free content too. It's been refreshing to see game developers reuse code for their own projects, and I hope that will continue. I want to thank all players who supported me on this endeavour. I'm truly happy that I was able to share my work with you. Stranger

• BUILD YOUR SHIP
  Add new compartments, fill them with new modules and equipment, and make your ship truly yours through a heavy coat of paint.
  
• SET A COURSE
  Take advantage of orbital mechanics to build the most efficient ship. Fast travel or low fuel use - the choice is yours.
  
• TURN A PROFIT
  Mine resources, trade products, or take up lucrative contracts to fund your upgrades.
  
• EXPLORE THE WORLD
  Detect new areas and explore the orbit of an exoplanet. Be careful though, as you are not alone.
