Grimstar: Welcome to the savage planet is coming out on October 26!
Hey RTS Fans,
I’m excited to announce that after 2 years of development everything is on schedule and Grimstar: Welcome to the savage planet is going to be released on October 26th, 2022.
Thank you for all your feedback during development!
MORE ABOUT GRIMSTAR and THE RELEASE
Welcome to the savage planet acts as a Prologue for Grimstar: Crystals are the New Oil! You can play the first five missions of the single player campaign.
This prologue version will showcase a fresh cartoon graphic style which complements the gameplay mechanics. The following is a short summary of what I have changed for the final release version based on your feedback:
New Cartoon Graphic Style
I've switched to a cartoon graphic style since it appears much nicer and the maps are now much clearer.
Alternate victory condition
As an alternative to collecting all the crystals on the map, you can find and destroy all the enemies' caves. You can try it if you are brave enough, but it will be more challenging.
Level Up System
In addition, the game features a leveling up system. The amount of crystals you have at the end of each mission determines the experience reward. Therefore, playing as effectively as possible makes sense.
Hero Units
The Game also includes the first Hero Unit. Leveling up, calling Bombers for support, and using a shield are among the things he can do.
However, Hero Units are only available if you have completed the tutorial and the first mission.
There are also tons of bug fixes. I hope you have a good time playing the game.
Don't miss the release and make the company proud!
Still not added to your wishlist?
Well, it's time to do it!
This will greatly help us and provide invaluable support for the project on release!

Grimstar is a Real-time Strategy game. Build your base in a hostile environment, train your army, gather resources, defend your mining operations. The more you mine - the more hostile the alien environment will become. Your ultimate goal is to completely colonize the uncharted world.
The story:
Year 3047, the elected government on Earth is long gone. Megacorporations are in control. The earth’s resources are depleted, and the energy crisis is imminent. But there is still hope – a discovery of a distant world, which is rich in a new kind of natural energy resource. The name of the new world is “Grimstar”. Inhabited by only primitive creatures, it seemed an easy prey for aggressive colonisation and mining… But they were deceived. Grimstar is a real-time strategy game about exploiting a foreign planet as efficiently as possible.

At First I would like to say thank you for the feedback which i get after the Steam Next Fest in October last Year. I use this Feedback to change some points of the core gameplay:
Time Limit Removed
I have removed the time limit in all missions and have replace it thought waves which getting heavier and heavier.
Commander Unit is now a Hero Unit
Also the commander unit, which is the only unit which can summon new units, is now a Hero Unit which you can call every time if you have enough Resources.
More Enemies and Blood
I have also raise the number of enemies in each level, but each enemy have less power than before. I do this to Increase action of the game.
Play Test
I start a new Play test Next Week, to get more Feedback about the changes of the gameplay. The Play test is open to all players.
