addedStardiver reimagined => a day we want to shift your perspective on our indie game and offer you a new demo to try the game out, a lower price, a biggest 50% sale yet, and a new trailer to get in the Stardiver's adventure and mystery vibe! But let's sort things out in a nice and structured manner :)

addedStardiver's new trailer first!

changed1. Stardiver, what is it?Sci-fi adventure with some action and exploration activities. Think of a Firewatch but with shooting and entirely underwater! We would like to change your perspective on what the game is and who we are as a team. Stardiver is an indie game made by 3 persons (now reduced to just 2 brothers making games together ;)) with a lot of help from outsourcing so we are very grateful to all the great artists that made the game possible! We hope that us being transparent will also help you to decide if the game is a good fit for you as a player.

changed2. Demo available!It is simple - now everyone can try the game before buying. We've worked on a demo simultanously with the Final Update so it is the very updated version of the game.

changed3. Lowered price and the biggest sale yet (50%). And... why we do it?In the vibe of being fully transparent we wanted to lower the price to fit who we are - a small indie team of two brothers. It is an indie game so we came to conclusion that the price should be on indie level too - it was already pretty low to be honest but maybe it wasn't reflecting our small team enough. Now it is.

added3. Lowered price and the biggest sale yet (50%). And... why we do it?Alongside, we are launching the biggest sale yet! Why? Because despite all that changes that we made to the game presentation, improvements etc., we are aware that it is not enough to get out from MIXED to POSITIVE review score. That is obviously our goal and we believe that the game deserves it. Financially, it probably won't be good for us, but right now what matters the most is to deliver the game to new players, make a sort of redemption so to speak with this final update. And also important is to celebrate the half year of post-release updates and small patches that happened in that timespan! The game is in the best shape ever and we are sure that it is a very solid indie title for everyone seeking an adventure - and now we wish YOU to believe in it too and try Stardiver yourself!

4. Final Update.

Last but not least - what has changed. The game update brings a lot of fixes and also a portion of a content - a new ship to try! Since the release we have fixed every single issue from steam reviews, added new content, new settings, and a lot of improvements. It is a good time to try the game ;)

It probably isn't so important to you, but we also changed screenshots and a game description to better match what the game really is. We leave you with a feature list so you can decide if the game is for you before downloading a demo or grabbing a game on the current sale:

stunning underwater world
sci-fi story with relevant topics such as AI and climate change
free-roaming environment
both 3rd person and cockpit view
1st person swimming outside the ship
activities from varius game genres: shooting, upgrading the ship, crafting, mining resources, gathering useful items, collecting clues about the planet, boss battles
20 missions
30 km2 world with beautiful, atmospheric, color-based areas
over 800 lines of dialogue
77 objects to collect and read about
35 achievements to unlock

Best wishes, Green Planet Games team
