Roadmap

What's built, what we're working on, and what's next. There are no dates: it's the order we expect to work in, and it will change.

Supporter build

Play the start of the game now

The supporter build is the opening of Icarus Galaxy in the Helios system, in development and open-ended, for supporters to play first.

  • The opening story missions
  • Fly from the surface to orbit and between Helios's worlds
  • Contracts, wrecks to explore and ore to mine
  • Asteroid belts to fly through and mine on a spacewalk
  • The proving grounds, to try out your ships
  • Weather, day and night, and water on the worlds you land on

How to get it: support the game with any amount, then download the build from your supporter page. Progress in it doesn't carry over to the full game.

Help us get there

No dates on purpose: this is the order we expect to work in, and it will change. Progress goes on the developer blog.
