About Belt Colony
The year is 2040. You, an ex-sergeant, have signed a contract with a large mining corporation in the Belt. Mine ore, build out your outpost, travel to nearby asteroids and collaborate with other belters.
Operate a mining outpost on an asteroid. Mine valuable ore from large and small rocks on the surface. Sell the ore to earn credits (the currency in the Belt in the future). Build out your mining outpost with a landing pad, drone pad, storage, solar panels, refineries, and more.
There are lots of large and small rocks on the surface that can easily be mined for ore.
You can sell the ore that you mine using the management user interface in the outpost. Just click the "sell ore" button, and you will sell ore at the current market price and earn credits. You can use the credits to buy upgrades, equipment, buildings, repairs, food, water, etc.
When you have earned enough credits from selling ore, you will be able to buy a spaceship. You can now mine ore more efficiently and travel to other asteroids.
As you venture out into the Belt, you will meet others. You can earn credits by doing tasks for others.
There are several space stations scattered throughout the Belt. Most of them are owned by United Space Corporation and Utopia Arura Corporation.
Drones are very useful for hauling ore and small equipment.
Extractors are specialized drilling and extraction rigs that can be used to extract different types of ore beneath the surface of the asteroid.
Enjoy several hours of gameplay in solitude in the Asteroid Belt, mining for ore, operating your outpost, flying your spaceship, floating in micro-gravity, etc. This may be a good game for you if you like space games and are tired of action-packed shooting games.
Scattered in an orbit around the sun, just beyond the orbit of Mars, are bits and pieces of rock left over from the dawn of the solar system. The asteroid belt has countless small asteroids, and between 700,000 and 1.7 million asteroids with a diameter of 1 km or more. The game is set somewhere in the Belt where there are several large asteroids in the proximity of each other. We have made many large high-quality asteroids of several kilometers (and several miles) in diameter. You can land on the surface of any of these asteroids and mine them. We have put quite a bit of effort into making the asteroids realistic.

UI so bad that I quit in 13 minutes. Let me know when you can walk around and I'll try again. Until then rework the flight. Really bad!1 found this helpful
This game is for people who just want a relaxing and casual style of play. It's still in Development so there are a lot of features to be added in the future. I haven't encountered any game breaking bugs yet and overall the performance seems fairly good on my rig. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who is just looking to for chilled experience, no clock or timers, just go about it at your own pace. The main emphasis is harvesting and exploration.1 found this helpful
This isn't even close to being a real game yet and given the developers other unfinished very similar "games", it never will be. Interface is opaque and controls are clumsy. Graphics are late 90s quality and there is no story to speak of. Maxed out everything in a few hours and explored everywhere. There is just no game here.
Relaxing mining game with an OK story. Not something you are going to play 1000 hours, but it is entertaining enough. Slightly 'thin' in detail, but still immersive. The movement in micro gravity is well done, using thrusters and acceleration. Some more work could have been done on fuel and oxygen management as well as first-person-view and eternal view in your ship. I recommend this game, but I hope the developer picks it up again. Fun concept with good potential.
very cool game if you like mining and exploring
If you are looking for a low-Gee space mining sim, this is the game for you!
