The Demo is Live!

Just a month ago, I thought releasing a game on Steam was nothing more than a pipe dream.

But here we are — the demo is now live.

About the Game

Space Salvage Simulator (SSS) is a game where you follow the story of a protagonist who has been incarcerated at a space waste processing station and forced into labor.

You'll collect various pieces of scrap from the conveyor belt, assemble them into valuable items, and sell them to pay off your debt.

Master over 80 recipes (with more to come) and more than 20 tools as you learn their uses.

Starting from simple keyboard inputs, you'll progress to using advanced equipment like the Disassembler and the Fusion Molder to craft high-grade items. Various minigames — from precision welding to properly-paced coding — let you boost the value of your crafted goods even further.

The Back Alleys

When Saturday rolls around at the prison station, inmates are moved from the workshop to the sports center to ensure minimal exercise.

There you can meet various people, enjoy a glass of water, hear rumors, try some light gambling, or watch the bloody arena matches and score thrilling payouts on underdog bets.

Through these back alleys, you can meet and interact with various characters to gather information about the station — and about escape.

About the Demo

The demo lets you experience the game's core content up to the point where the main story is about to begin.

The game's framework is complete, with work remaining on the ending portion. Of course, after completing the ending, I'll continue adding various late-game content leading up to the 1.0 release. The game launch is expected around April.

I've squashed countless bugs while polishing the game, but since I'm developing solo, there may be bugs or issues I've missed when you play.

If you encounter any problems, please report them on the Steam forums and I'll check and update as soon as possible.

Thank you to everyone who plays.
