Spacewrights is a science fiction 2D strategy spaceship simulation game where you explore, build, and create a galactic empire coming to PC, Mac, Linux, iOS, and Android platforms in 2015. A crowdfunding campaign with a playable demo will be released later this summer. Explore the galaxy how you want: Land on planets. Make first contact. Build ships and space stations. Level up your crew. Play with (or against friends).

Post news Report RSS Spacewrights Demo V05 Released – Let the Modding Begin!

With this new demo version you can now dig around in the mods/ folder to see what mods can do and what they can add or tweak within the Spacewrights demo. The Kickstarter has slowed so we are hoping that by adding features that are requested like this we can get it back on track.

So if you want to try this new version go get it now.

Modding is not as simple as playing the game. You'll have to get your hands dirty and edit text files. The full details are ready to read here, and there’s a brand new Mods section of the official forums for everyone to share their mods and support. We encourage everyone to share their mods wherever appropriate to help spread the word of Spacewrights to get the Kickstarter funded. Furthermore we hope that by showing this rapid support of taking user feedback and implementing it quickly we can build a bigger and more trusting fanbase.

Changelog – The modding update:

  • Fans can now mod this Spacewrights demo!
  • Check out the website for more details, or dig around in the mods/ folder
  • Tile damage is no longer visible as it doesn't do anything [yet]
  • A bunch of smaller bugs fixed as well

We hope a new modding community sprouts up and enjoys modding Spacewrights as much as we do building it. And we are always open to requests for game mechanics to expose for modding, so don't be afraid to ask.
