ABOUT THE EARLY ACCESS
 
Dyson Sphere Program is a sci-fi sandbox with space exploration and factory automation elements. In the game, as engineer of the space alliance COSMO you are tasked with constructing a Dyson Sphere – a megastructure capable of harnessing the energy output of a whole star. On board of the mecha Icarus you will have to explore a procedurally generated universe, build facilities on many planets to extract their resources, and connect them with an interstellar logistic network in a galaxy-wide production empire. You will have to research new technologies, both to improve your mecha and learn now techniques with which to gather more energy – all in order to get to your ultimate goal: the construction of a Dyson Sphere.

The Early Access version of Dyson Sphere Program includes the core gameplay of the game: players will be able to explore the universe, finding all kinds of celestial bodies (neutron stars, white dwarfs, planets of all kinds...), build facilities and mine resources, design galactic-wide production lines and logistic networks, research technologies and ultimately build the Dyson Sphere. A single playthrough can take you from 50 to 100 hours – depending on how much time you spend exploring! Its sandbox gameplay is fully there already – as a player you can try to beeline your way to the Dyson Sphere, develop the biggest and most efficient logistic network, or just explore with your Icarus mecha and enjoy the wonders of its universe.
