About Space Trash Scavenger
In the 31st century, Space Trash Scavengers roam the cosmos, risking their lives for riches amongst the debris of an ancient war. Build your Space Rig–a 3D raft with artificial gravity, power, trash processing, farming and defense. Craft the everyday food, fuel, weapons, ammo and space suit upgrades you’ll need to survive out here in the vastness of the cosmos. Automate your factory, using conveyor pads to deliver ingredients between your machines. In space there is no up or down! Expand your base in any direction for the most efficient layout. Once you are equipped with the necessary fuel and a warp drive, you’ll be free to explore other sectors and continue your mission.
Circumnavigate tiny asteroids, fly between abandoned outposts, and board derelict spaceships as they orbit the system. Take caution, however, and remember to keep your jetpack fuel topped up–you’ll need it to get back to your Space Rig safe and sound!
Each salvage zone is a procedurally generated, dynamic, and ever-changing open world.
You are an employee for the galaxy’s number one waste disposal firm, stranded far away from home with a mission to clean the galaxy from the remains of a galactic war. Space trash is your main resource. Whether it is salvaged debris floating in space, advanced and rare tech from wrecked ships, or scavenged goods from asteroid surfaces, you’ll want to snatch it all up!
Recycle and refine it to produce valuable goods that will net a tidy sum on the Trash Exchange, and spend it to upgrade your kit. Use conveyor pads, splitters and more to automate as much or as little of the process as you want.
You’re not alone amid the wreckage. Alien bots patrol most sectors of space nowadays and they’ll be drawn to you as your operation expands.
You’ll need a steady aim, impeccable defenses, and an upgraded armory to protect your Space Rig from the dangers of these foes. Survival depends on your ability to defend yourself!

Sadly I have to give this game a negative review, even though I liked it and completed it. It has some pretty massive flaws, that still make it feel unfinished. It was fun flying around, gathering stuff is cool. Fighting was okay but simple. The gravity felt nice most of the time. But now comes the bad stuff: 1. Item crafting. The worst offender. It starts okay but the further you get it becomes terribly hard and long to craft stuff, keep an overview and even know what to do and how to craft it. Without a picture of all crafting dependencies I would've given up. Crafting chains get up to like 8 items and all depends on another. Even right at the end you still need to start the basic crafting like steel or plastic. In theory you could automatize it or parts, but there are problems with that too. Mostly it's the need to put in the ingredients from your inventory into the machines. You can craft new items from a chest but not upgrade ingredients to the next item in the chain like glass to a mirror. That alone would fix the problems mostly. Or the possibility to craft late items with the basic ingredients it needs overall. Currently I had to craft for 20-30 minutes after every 2 gath…4 found this helpful
def a indie game but cozy and chill. If you don't want to be overwhelmed by some of the harder automation games it's a good one to sink into1 found this helpful
Space Trash Scavenger is a clever blend of survival, crafting, exploration, and automation that transforms the endless emptiness of space into a rewarding playground for resourceful players. Developed by SquarePlay Games and published by Paradox Arc, the game places players in the role of a lone scavenger tasked with surviving among asteroid fields littered with the remains of forgotten civilizations and abandoned spacecraft. Instead of focusing on large-scale storytelling, it lets players carve out their own adventure through discovery, construction, and steady technological advancement. The result is a sandbox experience that feels both relaxing and engaging, rewarding curiosity as much as careful planning. The game's strongest feature is its satisfying scavenging loop. Every derelict station, drifting wreck, and abandoned satellite offers valuable materials waiting to be recovered. Players constantly weigh whether to recycle collected scrap into essential building materials, convert it into advanced equipment, or sell it through the in-game market for credits. This simple but effective economy keeps every expedition meaningful, as almost nothing collected ever feels useless. Fi…1 found this helpful
I barely played for 10 hours and I'm already burnt out. Great idea on paper, tedious and gets old quickly in practice. There's no intrigue here. Only work.1 found this helpful
