I've been watching this guy for a while. He ended the the free build online to start a branch on Steam, and it's looking really, really good. To be fair, he worked on it for years before it went to steam. This is easily going to be one of the games everyone plays when it comes out.
I hope for a soon-ish release, waiting for it since I saw the first downloadable online version and that was some years ago
dang sucks that one got droped near completly but that one is lovable also i do like how this and avorion BOTH have made their logo into ships (as both games are space ship based) *nearly exploads from seeing that station*
Star sector would still scratch that sci-fi space sim itch better than this game
@@fbiagent6456 that maybe but this is a good take on the overall idea feels more like it would have a dark history like battletech.
Isn't the free-build still available from steam? I think it's one of the available demos.
built-in gif recording implies that this game does have every QoL feature
QoL?
@@Angelos-ck6zb quality of life
@@ahlgreen2491 Ahh olay
Except controller support.
Man this game has come a long way.
According to steam I had it on my wish-list for 4 years now. Back then it didn't have nearly as much functionality.
I'm pretty exited now.
It was pretty well developed in terms of the core combat loop back then, but it lacked a main/economy/quest/overarching game loop to tie things together. It looks like that is exactly what's been implemented. I'm downloading the brand new demo as I type.
@@r3dp9 Yeah, the combat and shipbuilding was pretty good back then already and it looks like they didn't change much there other than adding different resources.
I'm not sure how much of an economy the has though. This impression video didn't show anything in that direction, if there is a real economy now it would be really dope.
Same, been on my wishlist since 6/8/2018
IIRC, Those Ion lasers get stronger when you build them in series. You can join 2 together before you start getting diminishing returns. But you can also use focusing crystals to focus *those* together. I remember building ships that just had 40-50 Ion lasers focused down into 1-2 beams, that would shred capitol ships in seconds. I can't wait to try the new build!
that... sounds... AWESOME!!!
deth lazors!
Wow. The last time I looked at Cosmoteer, those focusing crystals didn't exist yet although I imagined that something like them ought to be added into the game. Nice to know that they've been added.

Gold would be very valuable in space, because it is conductive but non-corroding for use in vacuum-accessible circuitry, and it's also whats applied in molecular thickness coatings to protect from blinding solar radiation on space suits for EVA and receiver dishes for better reflectivity of all kinds of EM frequencies. The whole mirror assembly of the JWST is gold plated. Plus it's not a metal that cold welds itself in vacuum because it's normally non-oxidizing in earth atmosphere.
Gold is useful, but so is, say, coal. The question is how rare it is, ie supply vs demand. In space, there is a lot of gold. What there isn't a lot of is, say, lithium, which presumably one needs for the batteries.
I was thinking the same thing. But even given infinite quantities of everything, only like .01% of a ship is gold. Even if everything you make is gold plated, you still only need 1% as much as the steel you need. Gold is too brittle for structural, so you literally cannot use it for more than detail work,
I love how the people move around in the ship. This is amazing
I love the dead crew floating in space as a ship blows up
I love that they slow down if they have to walk over each other
Bro i don't think i was this keyed into a game from a first-look vid ever since i saw TotalBiscuit do a vid on Starfarer like a decade ago
Incredible
I really liked playing the Cosmoteer demo a couple of years ago. Glad its still in development.
*Good luck, have fun and be safe.*
Same! I thought it was abandoned until I found it randomly again. Really happy to see it's not been abandoned!
The ship building looks like a perfect balance. Simple to learn but highly customizable. You could spend a lot of time getting every detail right but you don't seem to have to.
The big limitation in the free (vanilla) version was the range and damage of weapons compared to the size of ship you could build -- your ship could be bigger than the range of its own weapons...
There were tons of mods that added more, better weapons (as well as every other type of part) for the free/beta version of the game.
The actual gameplay seems to have improved significantly from the last beta version I played (0.15.12b)
Been following Cosmoteer since 2019 and I am so HYPED
💯
Been following this game for a while now, it's exciting to see it progress this far. The amount of polish, just within this steam demo, is quite astonishing. I've already sunk hours upon hours into the earlier demo. Can't wait to try this when it comes out into EA.
I love what the dev/devs did to this game. i tought it got abandoned or something but maaan aaaall these changes are what i wanted originaly from the game... this is great. cant wait to install like 100+ mods and make the galaxy size so large my PC start laging looool
Dude can you play this as a series? I loved watching you play this, plus your the only one playing this that I enjoy hearing talk, your just that good.
I´ve spend a lots of hours into whats now called "Classic" Cosmoteer. Than I just ran out of things to do, been waiting for a new stuff annnd finally forgot about it.. Now i see the progress and oooo maaan... this looks sooo cool. I was really sad when i found out i cant play your version of the game because its closed beta test. Sooo lets just keep waiting i guess... And hope for some oportunity to get it sooner :D
I played cosmoteer awhile ago, and it definitely needed a spotlight on this channel.
I'd forgotten all about this game... damn it's looking pretty darn neat, looking forward to it's run towards 1.0
Splat making his first ship: "More like ASSmoteer."
I've loved this game since long before the steam release. Super looking forward to the campaign and co-op!
The Menu Controls, ALONE, means this Dev is COMPETENT and deserves FURTHER FUNDING!
:o
😮 this game is just what I’ve been looking for.build ship pilot ship and manage crew and defenses and weapons and engines and.can’t wait to get home and get ready his game going
Look into Avorion also then
thank you!
Really enjoy your videos. This game especially, looks up my alley. I'm downloading the demo right now.
I’ve been following this game for a decent amount of times, the most fun you’d get from this game is definitely the community, the mods, the ships people share etc., it’s simply beautiful
I like that the hand cursor is a Vulcan salute 🖖 LOL
One thing I think would be awesome to have is 'ship designer' where we could design our ship and save it like a blue print so we can figure out 1st what goes where and than slam it on grid so we know exactly what to build where. I'm sure people have thousands of ideas they would love to share via this system and Steam Workshop would blow away with cool ships people could share!
Good news! Everything you just mentioned is already in the game! (Aside from steam workshop, though that will probably come with the steam release).
@@Solusphere Good News! While there is no steam workshop the game does have an official discord server with channels for uploading ship designs! All ships can be saved as a PNG and then can be drag and dropped into the game as blueprints! (As of the classic demo as far as I know)
Holy crap this is my jam. The only thing that I can see that I don't think I would like is the instant building. I'm one of those people that will not touch creative mode in minecraft because I want the satisfaction of having mined and built everything myself, from scratch. That being said, this looks like a 2d Space Engineers with actually combat and I am SO down for this!
Crew manually building stuff is planned, just not implemented yet.
Congrats, crew building and repairing the ship is now in game.
Looking forward to this game release!
Super happy you stumbled upon it, had Walt the Dev for an interview and it is SOOOOO FUN to play
Absolutely adore this game. Looking forward to seeing more :)
Let's build up hype for this game. It's been in the works for so long and I'm so excited for it's official release!
I played thousands of hours in this game, from day 1 to today. Can't wait then it will come, and first mods for it !!!
damn this game is for me... as a starsector crazy bastard player this is a gem, this is what i wanted when i saw FTL and starsector.
Check out Space impossible, its very similar to this games and it is in development since 2014 at least. Unfortunately this game is super unpopular although the developer is constantly adding new cool stuff all these years. I just hope that this game will get some attention.
@@DzhokharDudayev-kr9mi I never heard of that game. That's exactly what are you talking about - noone knows about it!
It looks interesting :-)
This game looks so good. Glad you showed it off Splat.
reminds me of the ship designer in highfleet, down to the need to fit the thruster and armor, except in highfleet getting hit was a lot more dangerous if there's no armor between your ship's volatile parts and the shells and missiles coming at you since they tend to burn, or explode.
design is mostly about "module specialization/optimization"
ie : if you want missiles then create a sector that specializes on doing that (how many launchers, factories, shields, barracks, etc.. per generator) and then seal it off from the rest of the ship.
with that in mind you can get very compact and robust designs against cascading failures incurred from damages, while optimizing area available to maximize damage output.
Love your work Splatty.
[EDIT]
I remember the demo, this was the bomb, then it vanished...
The classic version of cosmoteer is still around
For those not aware, the demo has been updated with the new career mode. The demo now has some ship modules which are no longer available (says not in demo).
The kid and I used to play this all the time. I was super fun
love this game! Excited to see the changes
Wow... It's practically a whole new game. This blows the beta out of the water!
Got to love old game friends when they update
This''ll be great for recreating a load of the Traveller rpg spaceships!
Thanks for showcasing! ^^
Oh man, this game has seen some incredible improvements... I played it back when it first became popular, and even back then it was fun, if somewhat repetitive.
Sadly, a puppy and a child have made my time with video games far less than before... XP
nice to see this back
Wow! I'm very excited for this.
Ist ganz schön umfangreich geworden. Hab das damals gezockt da war es noch umsonst im Internet runterladbar.
In my opinion, this game is like space engineers but 2d. It has all the parts of space engineers(ship systems,weaponds,storage,destructible components) but it has a lot more action.
I could see gold as still being worth a lot in a space age just due to it being one of the heavier elements even with its abundance. Weight is equivalent to thrust need so to transport large amounts would require lots of thrust.
Bought it and already sunk tons of hours into it. Amazing experience.
Wow it's been a long time since I've seen this game, it's looking really good
You missed your chance to call your boat tugger xD
Looks cool. Looking forward to playing it for myself.
Can’t believe I only found out about this channel the other day. This guys dope.
Not sure if the dev's will patch this on release, but mining lasers can fire through your armor plating and have decent range. You can build a thick armor shell around the front of your ship and put 2 or 3 mining lasers behind it. Slow, but effective against lighter craft. Missile launchers are good broadside weapons, as the missiles themselves are fire-and-forget, so they'll hammer into anything 'out front'. And make sure to have energy blasters (only batteries required) and a shield guarding the rear thrusters. Some enemy fighters are really fast, and you cannot outrun them if your cannon's run dry
Downloaded the demo because of this video... cannot stop playing. Can't wait for the full release.
Great stuff!
Been playing the old demo recently and even that in it's basic form, with limited content is very fun - I can't wait for this to release, and to see what the Mods can do with it.
*20:18* Wow, you went real dark over there!
I love this game!! It's so good!
Wow I remember playing this a couple years back.
*Opens coat, hey there's this cool game*
Splattercat: Cool, gimmeh gimmeh!
*Sneak attack swift shin kick*
Looks awesome and totally agree on future prospects...if they do base building alone; GAME CHANGER
BRO IVE BEEN LOOKING FOR THIS GAMEEEE
The progress made is impressive, the dedication and perseverance of the Dev made the game bloom into something even more fun than it already was. I'm excited.
Been following this game from the start but have had a 3-4 year gap by now because I totally forgot the game existed for reasons I cannot remember either. Anyway, nice to have it back. And man it have changed a lot from when I last time played it. And it seems the changes are for the good.
Ya this looks awesome. Wishlisted it, hopefully it turns out well when it is ready.
5 mins in. I'm absolutely in love
4:30 40 mm artillery cannons. I've been taken by surprize, for you're annoucing that big size!
This feels like space Factorio. Nice!
great video! :)
Looks fun! Wishlisted!
Sweet vid the game looks great
Holy f I had an early free version of this game on an old pc of mine. I think I played this game 2009 or 10 for the first time! Excited to see how far they have come in all those years!!
The ship style and how they are built remind me a lot of particle fleet, from the same guys that did creeperworld. Like, your cockpit being square but with a curved window on the front looks almost exactly the same as in that game, although they are extremely diffent games.
The obscure South Park references were on point in this one.
I was just about to tell you you should cover this game, as I've had quite a bit of fun with it recently.
Nice video!
I remember this game from back then too
I played the hell out of this game before. I am liking the direction it is taking.
im hyped for this. ^^
I played it before also. I agree it looks way better and cant wait to play it. If the developer reads this or you message them, they've done a great job on it.
No way I've been trying to find this game ,can't believe I'll find it here
SPaZ 2 was one of my favorite games ever!
I wish starsector had single ship combat playability 😞 this game looks epic. Can't wait 🤘
Been playing the pre-steam game for ages and it is great. Some of the mods for it are great, though the power levels are insanely varied :D
I can´t wait for the game to finally come out, have been playing the demo for a long time
Was fun getting the preview of the Fart Ship on Twitch
This is a must buy when it is out!
seeing first 10 minutes is fcking telling me that game got MAJOR changes and improvements from where I last played LOL good job developer!
We're all happy when he opened his trench coat that he was clothed usally turns the other way
I had so much fun with this game
About space stations and stuff - try Reassembly! You can custom build ships and stations!
dang this game looks nuts
Wow. This has advanced a lot from the demo.
I like the way the starmap reminds me of the Battletech's Inner Sphere map.
Cosmoteer looks so cool I'm interested
I got the free version years ago and I still have it, this seems like they have been working very quietly and fairly hard too!
Yo what!? They finally finished the game? Nice. For anyone interested in this, after you're done check out the mods. They're great.
Game isn't even out yet and there are mods already! 😂
@@QuotidianStupidity Well, it was free to download for a very long time while in early access. I remember I designed a pretty sick railgun ship back then.
@@yrm1594 Ah fairpoint - Just never ceases to amaze me how quickly the work... especially when correcting issues on new launches when the Dev's weren't given enough time.
@@QuotidianStupidity modders are mvp's
The ship building reminds me a bit if genesis alpha one. Fp spaceship management/exploration. I had lots of fun. It can be unforgiving at times.
WONDERFUL!!! I thought this game was never going to happen, that the dev went to do something else in life or whatever. Super cool that cosmoteer was quietly being made all that time.
