Organic Ships Are Finally Here!

Organic Customers: These new civilian ships operate a little differently. For starters, they require organic docks to be able to land. After reaching a certain reputation level, you'll eventually catch the attention of many organic ships. Organic Docks: These docks allow organic ships to land on your facility. Building too many might lead to some disease outbreaks.
Employee Traits: Your employees will now have various traits defining who they are. This replaces the old bonus system with a much simpler one. More traits will be added in the upcoming patches. Quality of Life: Employees are now easier to sort and view. The whole assign panel and the employee panel have been reworked to make them easier to use. You can now also see where an employee is working and click on it to locate that building.
Large Staff Quarters: Has a much higher staff capacity than the previous one. Bio Turret: Deals extra damage to organic ships but less damage to normal ships. Organic Dock: Perfect landing pads for organic ships.
Pathogenic Outbreak: These new events will get triggered depending on your hygiene levels and will lead to some tricky situations. You might have to make some critical decisions. Adveni Raid: The Adveni is an alien clan with powerful organic ships. Unlike pirates, they are not after wealth, but knowledge.

The year is 3000, humanity is all over the galaxy and the economy is booming. It is time to take action by building your very own space station in a star system far, far away. Building and managing a space station in a distant star system isn’t an easy task to achieve, that’s why you should do your best to attract customers and get them to spend money.

There are lots of wandering pilots across the whole galaxy looking for a space station. Each has their reasons, be it to repair and refuel their ships or maybe just to relax and have some fun. Even though what they each look for in a space station is very different, there is one thing they have in common; they want to spend some money. In Space Station Tycoon you will expand your station by building lots of different stuff like docking bays, research facilities and even casinos to attract every kind of customer you can.

Space Station Tycoon is inspired by its greatest ancestors of the “tycoon” genre. That’s why our main focus while making this game is always going to be its depth. We want the player to be able to control everything necessary from small things like fuel prices to intergalactic marketing budgets. With the depth it offers, Space Station Tycoon will surely deliver a true “tycoon” experience.
