Hey SplatterCat! Thank you very much for playing! Always a pleasure to see the game on channels I admire! :) It is awesome to have this support as a solo indie dev. Hope you and your audience liked it! Cheers!
Mind if I ask what the inspiration is from? As soon as I saw it, a lot reminded me of Starsector, though that is a pretty recent game, inspiration-wise.
This game is pretty badass. Dev listens to all feedback and fixes any bugs you show/present to him. Really in-depth RPG and ship mechanics, variety of ways to earn money.
Little fact, if you're interested: "Outis" is the (ancient) Greek word for "nobody". Odysseus introduced himself with this name to Polyphem the cyclops. Bye bye, have a nice day. :)
yes, there is actually a lot to consider while streaming, so it can be distracting from even the simple obvious stuff (am I even live right now?!) when he was considering a nuclear reactor I was like "buy it! just buy it! noooooo you dont want another battery, get the generator!" it's fun watching people learn, especially knowing they are multitasking
@@sleepydragonzarinthal3533 same here! haha I was hoping he would notice the low energy generation, which he did a bit later on. It was a good job at learning the game while delivering good and fun content.
Nice! i love this game, 1 person dev team, very fun healthy discord. It is definitely getting more content and activities soon. I've logged 800 hours so far and sometimes when I play Elite Dangerous or something, I will park in a station and alt + tab and play some Star Valor as if I am sitting in my space ship playing a space ship game haha Star Valor can be played casually with some optional in depth stuff like the crafting, which is also going to be expanded to be able to craft more than weapons. ALways nice to see my favorite indie games on the big channels! Look forward to new players in the discord
puts spaceship 5m away from jumpgate opens map and realizes warpjump is required closes map and turns spaceship around, stating; "ahh, you need to jump.. well, guess we have to find a jumpgate." decides more resources are needed and proceeds to go mining
After watching this video I was definitely interested in the game. After watching someone do a playthrough I decided to buy it and holy shit I'm hooked! It's so good. Definitely has some shared DNA with Starsector but it's a lot easier to manage, I find. I love the mining and crafting aspects. Looking forward to more development!
Good job highlighting this game, it's really well done and has more depth than you'd expect, especially in the ship building. Dev is really nice and responsive on Steam too
I love how i can watch some of your older videos, discover a game that fits my type of hunger, watch it go on steam sale and also see massive amount of updates on it. Now developers, shut up and take my money.
I'm not a top-down space mining grindy kind of guy...until now! I like what you showed and how you showed it, I just added this to my list of games to get. 😎 You have a new subscriber and I have a feeling that I am going to have a larger game collection...THANKS! 👍
Escape Velocity was the first game I played like this (from about 20 years ago, now) where you fly around the galaxy, run missions, make money, buy new ships and gear, etc. I've been supremely happy to see this unnamed genre receiving a lot of love, EV is even getting a remake the last I heard!
Reminds me a little of a game called escape velocity, but more fiddly. In escape velocity I really liked that in a combat situation you could board and take over other ships, but you didnt have to dlfight if you didnt want to play that way.
I'm not sure either on how to categorise that genre but I think it's cool. I like the choice of specialisation and the roaming and exploring, good stuff.
Splat: "My dumb ass is cruising around in a sunfire" Me: "hey wait....I cruised around in a sunfire....I feel like I should feel attacked right now. But I also completely understand that energy"
he SplattterCat the stations and other points of intrest have nummers next to them ( sample: Civilian station ( 6 ) that mean its lvl 6 station :) higher lvl stations or graveyard or others have better loot to sell or drops :) same with the enemys ships :)
@roadworkahead i agree my steam library has increased a lot over the last two years i have been watching splat. @splattercatgaming if you have a patreon or whatever i would support it and i usually don't. Love what you do man always makes me laugh with your rhetoric keep it going man
Game's still in early access, but the developer is still updating it as well. There've been two fairly nice updates in the last couple months. Not sure how far along the game was at the time of this video, but it's got dreadnoughts, carriers, fleets, and a new crafting system in addition to the old one to have fun with that might not have been there a year ago.
I've racked up 250 hours play time in this game i never get tired of it love all the recent updates i wonder if the Dev will add ship loadouts that would be huge
Hi splatter, I super enjoy your channel and I too like @road work ahead, have bought half my games because of your recommendations, I would love to support you, do you get some thing when I buy the games using your link or is there another way to support?
So... Starsector, but how you really want to play it?? I'm in. And I'm not slamming Starsector, but it would be nice to have an option where you could get to this level
Turns out the Dev only accepts pats on the back but whines that you're complaining when you point out the obvious flaws that need a fix. Done with this game and this dev.
Oof. When I first tried this game, there was a fight breaking out every 30 seconds, and I grew frustrated at the challenge and gave it a pass. I might have to redownload it.
Dear sir, I have a question, what are your Pc specifications? Thank you so much for putting so much hard work on your contents lately ☺️ Keep up the great work 🙏
feels like starpoint gemini but... i think it is good if we can upgrade the ship into some battleship level , i mean the huge one ,titan class or something with some crew to command other little ship.
You do realise that even if it is in the first place you look that is still the last place because why would you look any further? Just always found that statent amusing.
A plug Beyond the Stellar Empire wants you! It's free to play at the start, lot's of space to exploit, fun players and you can go Political free and get 5 more free ships besides your starting ship. Check it out by internet search. As for this game I'm going to try it out.

Mind if I ask what the inspiration is from? As soon as I saw it, a lot reminded me of Starsector, though that is a pretty recent game, inspiration-wise.
Its a fun game, it deserves to get some eyes on it!
@@lc1279 Mainly Elite: Frontier (really old), Master of Orion 2 and old star wars games like Tie Fighter.
@@buckcherry2564 thank you! :D
Solid game, but I hate you for making me addicted to it!
I bought at least half the games in my library because of you alone.
Honestly.
It's only half because most of it is early access. Imagine if he only covered fully released games.
splats the best cure for the spring draught
and barely played one 😂
that’s a lot of pressure.
This game is pretty badass. Dev listens to all feedback and fixes any bugs you show/present to him. Really in-depth RPG and ship mechanics, variety of ways to earn money.
thank you Madd! :)
Little fact, if you're interested: "Outis" is the (ancient) Greek word for "nobody". Odysseus introduced himself with this name to Polyphem the cyclops.
Bye bye, have a nice day. :)
That's exactly it. It's the starting background when you are "nobody".
I'm pretty sure it's "ΟΥΔΕΙΣ", i.e. outhis with the th as in the or there.
I sat for so long just looking at the "Level up! Press C" and waiting for him to realize....
As soon as I saw it, I was waiting
He never sees anything

As always, thanks for the support, Zar!
I think "top-down open world space shooter" is a really good description for these types of games.
My childhood best friend was obsessed with escape velocity, this brings back memories of the good od days. I hope he's okay.
Thank you Splat for the lol's... you calm while you entertain and you make us smile ... kudos bro
puts spaceship 5m away from jumpgate
opens map and realizes warpjump is required
closes map and turns spaceship around, stating;
"ahh, you need to jump.. well, guess we have to find a jumpgate."
decides more resources are needed and proceeds to go mining
Starsector is still a king in this genre, but nice game nevertheless
I just wish the RPG mechanics is more active than passive when it comes to space combat.
Having more of a good thing is always nice. Been waiting for the next major update for Starsector before jumping back in.
Was about to comment that. If you want this kind of game, but 10x more complex - check out starsector!
At least this one isn't trying to clone starsector. It's got a unique enough feel
Starsector is such a huge animal to wrangle.
Glad to see more people playing this! the dev is SUPER active on the discord and open to suggestions!
Thanks for the support! :)
Games like these can just be called a Space Shooter RPG.
After watching this video I was definitely interested in the game. After watching someone do a playthrough I decided to buy it and holy shit I'm hooked! It's so good. Definitely has some shared DNA with Starsector but it's a lot easier to manage, I find. I love the mining and crafting aspects. Looking forward to more development!

I bought this game the last time you showed it. The developer has done well for updating considering it's just one guy. It's a nice chill game.
I love how i can watch some of your older videos, discover a game that fits my type of hunger, watch it go on steam sale and also see massive amount of updates on it.
Now developers, shut up and take my money.
SPAZ reference, yes! still love playing that game

Love your channel man! Turned me towards several games I’ve missed in the past
One of my favourite games, been playing it for AGES!!! So much has developed over the last 3 months or so. Totally in my top 5 space games ever :)
Escape Velocity was the first game I played like this (from about 20 years ago, now) where you fly around the galaxy, run missions, make money, buy new ships and gear, etc.
I've been supremely happy to see this unnamed genre receiving a lot of love, EV is even getting a remake the last I heard!
A nice find! Purchased, thx for the suggestion!
You can call this "Mount and Blade but in space" genre, Splat
I call em SPAZzys. Because it's fun.
All of this started with the game Escape Velocity
Truth
You should check out Endless Sky, it's a free open-source successor available on Steam. Really good if you like the EV series.
I have 94 hours in this game. It is great with very regular updates and a lot more planned to be added before it reaches 1.0
Reminds me a little of a game called escape velocity, but more fiddly.
In escape velocity I really liked that in a combat situation you could board and take over other ships, but you didnt have to dlfight if you didnt want to play that way.
I'm not sure either on how to categorise that genre but I think it's cool. I like the choice of specialisation and the roaming and exploring, good stuff.
"Space opera" is the correct terminology.
wish it had coop multiplayer. not necessarily mmorpg style but 1-4 player would be great
This may be added after full release ;)
It looks like a modern day Escape Velocity. Definitely a blast from the past and a great game.
Lookin' good SplatterCat.
Splat: "My dumb ass is cruising around in a sunfire"
Me: "hey wait....I cruised around in a sunfire....I feel like I should feel attacked right now. But I also completely understand that energy"
Watching Splat has become an expensive pastime.
Looks cool definately picking this one up
YES!! I love Escape Velocity clones! Insta-buy.
bought this long time ago.. (or seems long..) put 59+ hours in it when i got it.. so was fun.
Thanks for sharing this game! like someone else said, My Library is full of games from your videos haha Surprised I haven't seen a Kenshi play yet!
he SplattterCat the stations and other points of intrest have nummers next to them ( sample: Civilian station ( 6 ) that mean its lvl 6 station :) higher lvl stations or graveyard or others have better loot to sell or drops :) same with the enemys ships :)
Envoking, patrick stewart, awesome.
Looks like an old dos game Solar Winds. I'm down.
This reminds me of a game from the early 90's, solar winds.
that game was dope. i couldn't remember the name of it, but i always think of it when seeing these kinds of games.
Hey Splat, just wanted to say thank you for doing what you do. I could say more but that would be boorish. Thanks man.
Totally agree. :)
@roadworkahead i agree my steam library has increased a lot over the last two years i have been watching splat. @splattercatgaming if you have a patreon or whatever i would support it and i usually don't. Love what you do man always makes me laugh with your rhetoric keep it going man
It is great, simple as that! I have 50+ hours in it and it IS still Alpha/beta. Iirc it is Just a one man Studio
Agreed, think I'm about 50 hours. Never got past level 20 though as the new updates make me restart from scratch. 👍
thanks for the support! :)
@@Laious thank you for your creation. It's scratched an itch I have had since David Brabens Frontier elite 2 that I played so much in 1993. 👍
@@Laious you're welcome. Keep up the good work!
@@steve323f David Braben is a legend! Elite (2) Frontier is one of my inspirations for Star Valor. Thanks for the support Steve! :)
This looks fun, i have to play it!
And it is on sale 50% of to the 25:th.
This looks like modern day Asteroids, & that just reminds me of that bad 80's joke.
"Do you have Asteroids"
"No, but my dad has".
If you want a modern day asteroids style game, Nova Drift is absolutely fantastic
Spaceship ARPG
This game kind of seems like a top down, fast paced version of X4! I like it! It's going ton thw wishlist!
This reminds me so much of broken mirror 1 and 2, star trek flash game , so good
This reminds me of the old school Sid Meyers Pirates! In space...
this is a long-forgotten niche of early games called "Lunatic Fringe" games - 2d, top-down, space-shooter competitor to Diablo
Game's still in early access, but the developer is still updating it as well. There've been two fairly nice updates in the last couple months. Not sure how far along the game was at the time of this video, but it's got dreadnoughts, carriers, fleets, and a new crafting system in addition to the old one to have fun with that might not have been there a year ago.
Worth a try! Looks like a good low energy game for me to play on occasion
I've racked up 250 hours play time in this game i never get tired of it love all the recent updates i wonder if the Dev will add ship loadouts that would be huge
Hi splatter, I super enjoy your channel and I too like @road work ahead, have bought half my games because of your recommendations, I would love to support you, do you get some thing when I buy the games using your link or is there another way to support?
Reminds me of Drox Operative
Looks like a proper successor to armada on dreamcast
Loved that game.
Space sci-fi shooters seem to be... popular among indie devs
Maybe just next to blatant medieval fantasy RPGs
pretty cool
pretty cool
it does look cool.
Reassembly was an excellent one too
FROM NOW ON WE SHALL CALL GAMES LIKE SPAZ, SPAZZERS
Hey SplatterCat! I like your videos but I would like to see more of each game at less a second episode
So... Starsector, but how you really want to play it??
I'm in.
And I'm not slamming Starsector, but it would be nice to have an option where you could get to this level
Looks like Spore first stage of the game.
Turns out the Dev only accepts pats on the back but whines that you're complaining when you point out the obvious flaws that need a fix. Done with this game and this dev.
Thanks for the support!
Oof. When I first tried this game, there was a fight breaking out every 30 seconds, and I grew frustrated at the challenge and gave it a pass. I might have to redownload it.
You picked a miner profession then did minimal actual mining. 🙄
Tiny 2D ships. How quaint.
basically privateer - not bad!
🎶Little red Corvette!🎶
Where are your other links at Splat? I click "Show More" and all I see is the link to Steam for the game.
"I never know how to call these blablablablablablabla" Actual name of the genre: "4x"
Remind me of Transcendences, the only downside is you can't change ship.
I would say that his is *GREATLY* "inspired" by Transcendence. It's soo close in many ways.
Did anyone else notice that he left all his levels outstanding the whole time, and wonder if that's why he struggled?
If someone doesn't get it, when he says "SPAZ-type game" he means "Space Pirates And Zombies" :-)
SPAZ was so good and SPAZ 2 never happened.
Dear sir,
I have a question, what are your Pc specifications?
Thank you so much for putting so much hard work on your contents lately ☺️
Keep up the great work 🙏
I call them "top down strategic space shooters"
Stellar Tactics when?
feels like starpoint gemini but... i think it is good if we can upgrade the ship into some battleship level , i mean the huge one ,titan class or something with some crew to command other little ship.
The biggest ship he flew by in this video can be purchased for 325,000. But there's even bigger ones that cost around 1.5 million!
@@kenmolinaro yes the ship he saw was a size 5 (Cruiser), but there are size 6 (dreadnoughts) in higher level sectors. :)
Reminds me of 3030 Deathwar Redux, which is a lot more fun imho.
wasnt there a dos game like this waay back in the early 90's?
Thanks comments! i found the game i was talking bout Escape Velocity i remember playing it a friends house briefly
Could you PLEASE level up
PLEASE
WITH SUGA ON IT!!!!!
reminds me of space rangers, for some odd reason...
You do realise that even if it is in the first place you look that is still the last place because why would you look any further? Just always found that statent amusing.
Reminds me of Starsector. But Starsector is better. :)
It's a bad job to try and extort people when you only have 13 hp
Sci-fi roguelike twin-stick shooter?
Looks alright but... Well... There is starsector.
I think they used to be called "Han Solo Simulators"
A plug Beyond the Stellar Empire wants you! It's free to play at the start, lot's of space to exploit, fun players and you can go Political free and get 5 more free ships besides your starting ship. Check it out by internet search. As for this game I'm going to try it out.
Mom I want Stellaris
We have stellaris at home
Stellaris at home:
Cool game, its like Starsector but not as good
It's not quite the same kind of game though. It's more action/adventure while Starsector is more of a strategy game.
"I can be a minor, which makes me mine faster"
Hm-m
*Interesting*
LIT!
"Hi, I'm this person, links in the description." done! Enough of the skip to 26:00 to get past the intro crap... please
Reminds of Space Rangers little bit.
Remember "Flatspace"...?
