Make a home among the stars.

Starwaste is a voxel space sandbox about exploration, survival and building. Dismantle wreckage, research resources and turn an abandoned scrapyard into a base — alone or with a crew.

About the game
STARWASTE — Field guide
Exploration · salvage · your own base

You came for the scrap. Now you depend on it.

Lander

An old space scrapyard lies near the Purple Giant. Your crew came to make a living from someone else’s scrap, but an accident forced an emergency landing on an airless asteroid. You survived, but your lander will never fly again…

Search the debris for your first working machines, dismantle wrecks and smelt their metal. Build a base from the remains to keep yourself alive — and eventually a new ship. Beyond your home asteroid lie other worlds, resources and traces of earlier expeditions.

The crew’s goal is clear: from scrap back among the stars. Grow your industry, restore the beacon network from the home central beacon to nodes in three different foreign galaxies, and open intergalactic freight routes. Send the final home signal at the central beacon and the story receives its epilogue — while the world, exploration and your base carry on.
