Starvester

You manage a factory spread across a star system, deploying drones to mine planets and gather the resources needed to expand your operation.

Use those resources to unlock upgrades, develop planetary production, and manage how drones are assigned. The incremental loop combines automated gathering with occasional direct actions, such as clicking asteroids.

As the campaign progresses, new planets, systems, and resources become available. Prestige resets provide another route to upgrades, while factory expansion leads toward megastructures and harvesting stellar power.

Positive reviews often enjoy the space-themed visuals and atmosphere, the simple resource-growth loop, and the relaxed feeling of watching production build over time. Some find the early progression engaging and appreciate that the game is relatively short. Recurring criticisms focus on slow waits later in the game, repetitive or underpowered prestige resets, unclear mechanics and resource information, and bugs that can disrupt production or saves.
