Star Trucker

Hop into the cockpit of a rocket-powered big rig and hit the cosmic highway in Star Trucker. Haul cargo, scavenge salvage, and mingle with an eclectic lineup of star-hopping truckers on an Americana-infused journey across the open space road. This is an indie project born from a small team dedicated to evolving the game with community feedback.

Your vehicle is not a starship. Classic driving controls are tailored around zero‑gravity momentum, creating a driving feel that’s approachable at first but grows deeply challenging as you push for precision and speed. Mastering the balance of thrust, drift, and inertia is the core thrill as you navigate shifting gravity, asteroid belts, and volatile sectors.

Take on a variety of jobs that form the backbone of your journey. From fuel-hungry long hauls to hazardous drop-offs, each contract helps you earn credits, unlock new routes, and access fresh content. Keep your eyes open for salvage gigs that pop up along the way, and use the galactic map to plot efficient routes and warp jumps.

Communication is part of the cargo. Tune in to the CB radio to catch chatter from fellow truckers, discover side gigs, and stay updated with galactic gossip—a fun way to add opportunities and color to your travels.

Maintenance and upgrades keep you rolling. Keep core systems online, keep the gravity compensator spinning, and patch hull integrity to prevent leaks. Plan pre-trip shop stops for replacement parts, and upgrade your rig at local garages to improve reliability and performance for tougher routes.

When you’re ready to ride, load up the galactic map, chart your route, monitor fuel reserves and power levels, and set off across the star-studded highway. Crank the cab hi-fi and steer through original music spanning starburst blues, galactic rock, and asteroid-infused Americana as you chase the horizon. The open road—canvas of the cosmos—awaits your long haul.

Join Star Trucker for a unique open-road adventure that blends driving skill, supply runs, and social character interactions into one unforgettable spacefaring journey.
