Spacefleet: Heat Death

Spacefleet: Heat Death is a realism-focused tactical space RPG that combines fleet management, orbital maneuvering, station-building, and emergent faction warfare in the Earth-Luna system and its Lagrange points.

OVERVIEW

Your old life was never perfect. There was either too much or not enough. But in orbit, you can make a name for yourself. You are now an orbital deliveryman, mercenary captain, or faction leader—whatever it was you chose to be—scraping by on trade contracts, doing favors, and slowly but surely building an empire that will reach the stars.

From humble beginnings, you’ll rise (or burn) in a world where politics, physics, and invisible lasers collide.

Aside from being a great word to describe the end of the universe, in this game, "Heat Death" takes on a whole new meaning. Careful heat management and efficient use of power-hungry systems are vital to keeping your ship from melting and its crew from baking alive.

Engage in high-stakes battles with flip-and-burn maneuvers, delta-v limits, radiators, and power management. Ships don't have hitpoints; they have modules.

Use the strategic map to plan intercepts, organize convoys, or deploy fleets. Trade, smuggle, invest, gamble, or disrupt rival factions through logistics and force.

Start small with a single ship and a dream. Choose your path: merchant, stationeer, mercenary captain, fleet commander, or something else. Rise through the ranks with diplomacy, subterfuge, and war. Take on major factions such as the Shenzhen Interplanetary Corporation, Cascadia, and the Persian Federation.

Establish stations to serve as your base of operations, inventory, industry, and income. Upgrade defenses, lay down logistics, and carve out a piece of Earth orbit for yourself.

From Earth’s ruined nations to orbital megacorps and ideologue enclaves, every faction has its own goals, strengths, and weaknesses. Form alliances—or shatter them.

Rocket science and orbital maneuvers don't have to be hard! Learn the basics in minutes, then dive deep into orbital tactics, heat sinks, and power distribution.

PROOF-OF-CONCEPT

Spacefleet: Heat Death is a proof-of-concept “lite” version of a much larger game, Spacefleet: Sol, which will span the entire solar system and have more core features.

By buying Heat Death, you're supporting the development of Sol, and helping shape its foundation.
