Drift Works

Cut loose when the colony fleet jumped, your refinery tender is alone in the Kess system. Rebuild it. Automate it. Follow the fleet.

Playable build coming soon

The premise

Four hundred ships. One tender left behind.

A flare hit the Meridian without warning and the fleet made an emergency jump, leaving your refinery tender adrift with a cracked hub, no warp drive and a skeleton crew. A quiet ship AI called WARDEN is all that is left to talk to.

Rebuild the platform around its hub, feed it asteroid chunks, and grow a working industry strong enough to catch the fleet across five star systems.

What you do

Build the machine

Belt, pipe, insert

Lay belts with two lanes, underground belts, splitters, inserters, pipes and tanks. Refine rock into fuel, ammo and warp cells.

Research the way out

Labs, data packs and a branching tech tree in three tiers, from survey data to cryo data, ending at a warp drive.

Fly and trade

Travel an orbital map, build outposts, take contracts from recurring contacts and answer distress calls.

Defend the deck

Turrets, flak, rockets and lasers with target filters, shields and repair. Pirates and rock fields do not wait.

See your factory

Overlay views paint power draw, repair cover, shields and turret ranges, with a live power graph.

Your save, your file

Autosave, six manual slots, and export or import saves as plain files.
