You drive a spacefaring semi-truck, taking hauling work across a network of sectors. The truck handles with heavy, momentum-based movement, and docking with stations and cargo requires careful maneuvering.
Plan routes through warp gates and navigate hazards such as debris and environmental conditions. Take jobs through the stations and CB radio, deliver cargo intact, and earn money for your work.
Keep the rig operational by managing power, fuel, air filters, and other components. Collisions can damage the hull and cause leaks that require a suited spacewalk repair; you can also scavenge or trade goods, upgrade the truck, and unlock more job types and sectors.
Players who enjoy Star Trucker often point to its unusual space-trucking premise and the tactile work of operating and maintaining the rig. Reviews also praise the atmospheric settings, radio, and the satisfying balance of careful driving and resource management. Some find that same upkeep engaging, while others feel it becomes repetitive or overly demanding.
Hop into the driver's seat of your rocket-powered big rig as you haul cargo, scavenge for salvage and interact with an eclectic cast of star-hopping truckers in this Americana-infused journey on the ultimate open road - space!
Hi, this is Monster and Monster. Star Trucker is our tiny indie team's passion project, and we’re committed to making it the best intergalactic trucking game we can. By listening to the community, we’re working hard to improve the experience with every update. So buckle up and join us for the long haul!
Your truck is not a starship. We’ve taken typical vehicular controls then made sure zero-g momentum played a big part in maneuvers. The result is a unique driving experience that’s easy to pick up yet hard to master!
Cruise the hyper highways, taking on a variety of jobs such as fuel hungry long hauls and hazardous drop-offs to earn cash and unlock new content.
And don't forget to monitor the CB radio for chatter from fellow truckers; it's a fantastic way to uncover side gigs and stay updated on galactic gossip.
Keeping your rig runnin’ isn’t always easy. You’ll need to keep your core systems online, gravity compensator spinnin’ and hull patched to prevent your cab from leaking lung juice.
Be sure to make pre-trip shop stops for replacement parts, and consider upgrading your truck at a local garage. These improvements are vital for safely navigating volatile sectors and ensuring timely deliveries.
Use the galactic map to plan your journey and warp jumps, while keeping an eye on your fuel reserves and power levels.
Once your route is set, kick back, crank up the cab hi-fi and cruise to a selection of original songs covering starburst blues, galactic rock and asteroid infused americana. The open road is waiting!
