Space Station Tycoon Dev Diary #7 : Huge changes!
We are back again with yet another dev diary. In this short article, we'll show you some really exciting stuff we're working on. Our main objective for the next update is to make combat deeper, add more content, and do some critical QoL changes.
With the new manual targeting mechanic, you'll be able to force your turrets to target any hostile entity you want. This new mechanic will add a huge amount of control and depth to the combat system and will allow us to go a bit crazier with the new enemies. Targeting an enemy is easy as clicking the red target button and then clicking on the enemy.
Police scans will now be regularly done every year. After the police perform a station security assessment and find something wrong, the police report will be shown with each penalty displayed clearly. This small rework will better communicate to the player what's wrong with their station.
Escape pods are a new security measure that you have to take for the safety of your visitors. In case of an emergency, the escape pods will eject and fly away. Having less than ideal escape pods can lead to a cash penalty if detected by the police.
We added a really up-close planet to the game to further improve the visuals.
We are adding a new utility building to the game that disperses repair drones to fix your damaged buildings. These little drones are a bit slow but their operating costs are definitely cheaper than the regular repair costs. You can even research a new perk to be able to activate them during combat.
But that's not all! We are working on a LOT of other new content like new buildings, new missions, new enemies, and lots of quality of life improvements. All of this new content will be added with the upcoming 0.6 update which will come out in early August. Thank you for your continuous support.

Hello everyone!
We are back again with yet another dev diary. In this short article, we'll show you some really exciting stuff we're working on. Our main objective for the next update is to make combat deeper, add more content, and do some critical QoL changes.
Manual Turret Targeting
With the new manual targeting mechanic, you'll be able to force your turrets to target any hostile entity you want. This new mechanic will add a huge amount of control and depth to the combat system and will allow us to go a bit crazier with the new enemies. Targeting an enemy is easy as clicking the red target button and then clicking on the enemy.
Reworked Police
Police scans will now be regularly done every year. After the police perform a station security assessment and find something wrong, the police report will be shown with each penalty displayed clearly. This small rework will better communicate to the player what's wrong with their station.
Escape Pods
Escape pods are a new security measure that you have to take for the safety of your visitors. In case of an emergency, the escape pods will eject and fly away. Having less than ideal escape pods can lead to a cash penalty if detected by the police.
A Planet!
We added a really up-close planet to the game to further improve the visuals.
Repair Drones
We are adding a new utility building to the game that disperses repair drones to fix your damaged buildings. These little drones are a bit slow but their operating costs are definitely cheaper than the regular repair costs. You can even research a new perk to be able to activate them during combat.
Stay Tuned!
But that's not all! We are working on a LOT of other new content like new buildings, new missions, new enemies, and lots of quality of life improvements. All of this new content will be added with the upcoming 0.6 update which will come out in early August. Thank you for your continuous support.

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.
