Defect is a game of building spaceships to destroy other spaceships. And then destroying spaceships that you've previously built, with new ships… Which you’ll have to destroy later. Part construction game and part combat game, you take on the role of commander in the Suppressed Systems Navy. Tasked with defending a planet the whole universe wants a piece of. You’ll need to construct ships in the space dock before heading out to fight waves of greed crazed prospectors and opportunists Upgrading your shipyard with each victory, you will graduate from constructing tiny fights to ships the size of small planets. Sounds easy, yeah? But the biggest problem you face is your own men defecting the moment they think your latest ship is good enough to break the blockade!

Defect has been released on Steam in Early Access for PC and Mac, along with a new trailer and screenshots.

Posted by on

Defect is now available on Steam Early Access. As a lowly captain on a dead-end planet, you must build a ship, complete a mission and wave it goodbye when your crew defect to the other side. Then design a new ship to hunt down those mutinous traitors in an endless cycle of punishment and revenge. Don't make that new design too good though, because odds are you'll be fighting it pretty soon.

A new trailer has also been released:

Here's the current feature list:

  • Unprecedented freedom of creation - Create the most powerful ship in the galaxy piece by piece, with more than 100 components available and many more to come.
  • Exploit your designs - Create the perfect design to complete the mission, but remember to build in a weakness you can exploit later when your crew inevitably turns against you.
  • Epic scale - With unlimited combinations available from tiny fighters up to battle stations the size of a small moon.
  • Dynamic Music System - Building your ship defines a music theme unique to that ship.

And some new screenshots:
