About the Game
In Starbound, you create your own story - there’s no wrong way to play! You may choose to save the universe from the forces that destroyed your home, uncovering greater galactic mysteries in the process, or you may wish to forego a heroic journey entirely in favor of colonizing uncharted planets.
Settle down and farm the land, become an intergalactic landlord, hop from planet to planet collecting rare creatures, or delve into dangerous dungeons and lay claim to extraordinary treasures.
Discover ancient temples and modern metropolises, trees with eyes, and mischievous penguins. Make use of hundreds of materials and over two thousand objects to build a sleepy secluded cabin in the woods, a medieval castle, underwater arcade, or even a space station.
Starbound has been built from the ground up to be multiplayer and easily moddable. You have the tools to make the universe your own and modify the game to suit your play style - add new items, races, planet types, dungeons, and quests - the possibilities are limitless.

Good game, freedom of decision, interesting game environement. Interesting posibilities.
Infinite replayability. Infinite mods. Infinite worlds and planets. What more could you want?
I have played this game for hours already and theres so much to do alittle overwhelming at first but I enjoy it alot as theres so much to explore
Honestly? This is one of the BEST indie games of all time!
Granted, it could use work, but that's where mod support comes in!
With the support of things such as spawning NPCs including shopkeepers and guards to move into planet colonies you build, and being able to build tech for defenses and such, it's just a masterpiece that succeeds in putting the base game of "Terraria" to shame!
In addition? You got mech combat, and being able to travel to many different planets; making this even more in depth, compared to "Terraria", despite being VERY similar! (Not to mention more beginner friendly, too! And better controls, to top it off)
Fun 2d space game, the more you play the more there is to find and do
10/10 game especially for stardew fanatics like me. So much lore and also a very vast sandbox universe. Obsessed
While the base game is somewhat lacking in a few areas and customization is a bit left behind, the modding scene for this game makes up for it and helps the game feel alot more alive. Depending on what you install you can make the game: Cutesy, Tactical, Meme-ified, Realistic, Roleplay based, Challenging and of course as most games would make it, Perverted (Up to your choice of course, especially since you'd need to go to a third party platform to download "those" mods). Overall I recommend this game no matter what type of player you are but you would need to mod it out to get alot of your worth and preference into it. 9/10
I came for the artstyle and aesthetic, was kept busy by the hours of content, and ended up staying for the great modding community.
The only unfortunate thing is the lack of updates and new content. It seems that this game has reached the end of its development, and is currently in its final state.
Oh well! Not every game can live up to minecraft or terraria, and that's fine.
I played Starbound years ago upon its initial release and nowadays have mixed feelings. On one hand it's a cool exploration /base build / survival game. You get to visit different planets and fight enemies, gather resources, do quests, find items etc. On the other, I rarely picked it up during a playthrough after visiting a few planets because things got a bit stale. The devs will never update the game, but they've already crafted a very enjoyable game. I'd like to forget about playing it and replay it again.
Great game with plenty of potential! It is super not optimized how ever. If my wife and I explore a medium sized planet together, the game becomes unplayable. The lag and desync makes fighting even the weakest monster a challenge.
I kinda like this game.
By a WHOLE LOT.
But it *must* be modded.
Unfortunately the base game fell short and with it having been entirely abandoned it never was able to live up to what so many, including me, wished it could have truly been. A world where this got the same support Terraria has gotten would be a dream like you wouldn’t believe.
So I will thumbs up this game even after all these years. Even with the need of mods and knowing that it has certain performance issues that are engine deep and likely will never be fixed unless a overhaul happens from the the ground up. Official or not.
Playing Starbound felt like stepping into an endless universe of possibilities. At first, the game’s charming pixel art and vast procedural galaxy completely captivated me. I loved hopping from planet to planet, never knowing what kind of environment, creatures, or treasures I might encounter. The exploration was addictive, and the ability to shape and build my own bases gave me a real sense of ownership over my journey. The sci-fi aesthetic mixed with whimsical humor made the game feel unique, and the range of biomes and planets kept me curious about what else I might discover.
That said, after a while, the gameplay loop started to feel a bit repetitive. The procedural generation, while impressive, sometimes resulted in planets that felt more generic than distinct, and the quests often boiled down to fetch missions that lacked depth. The combat was serviceable, but it didn’t feel particularly tight or rewarding, and it sometimes got in the way of the exploration I enjoyed so much. Multiplayer was fun with friends, but the lack of a strong endgame or meaningful progression left me feeling like my adventures eventually ran out of purpose.
Still, Starbound was a relaxing and creative experience that scratched my itch for exploration and building. It may not have the staying power of some other sandbox games, but its charm, freedom, and sheer scope make it a game I’d revisit whenever I just want to wander the stars and see what’s out there.
Personally I felt like the game was a great successor to terraria, dare i say even better. While the reception has been overall strong, I think there is a lot left under the table as the game seems criminally underrated in my opinion.
Underrated Gem. Base game is kinda bad but the workshop carries the game by a LOT! Idc what people will say, always will have a place for me somewhere. 8/10 or sumn, idk.
an amazing game, i love everything about this.
tho it is very laggy for some reason( i recommend getting some mods to help with that)
community is lovely
While I did love this game, it's not without it's flaws. Let me explain the pros and cons respectively and I'll get depth on why I feel the way I do.
Pros:
-Large variety of blocks, resources, crafting and building
-Inter-planetary travel
-Worlds loop around
-Worlds have their own major and sub biomes
-Rich lore and many playable races
-Advanced modding community
-Wide roster of weapons
-Selectable difficulty levels
-Customize your own space ship and pilot your mech
-Build a crew or develop a colony
-Lots of exploration to do
-Lovely soundtrack
-Cozy pixel art style
-Enemies won't track you unless you go close
-You can duel wield
-Encounter structures and villages
-Special abilities to augment your movement
-Ways for farming and automation
-More content than you know what to do with
Cons:
-Overwhelmingly reliant on mods
-Clunky Combat
-World weather and enemies can grief
-Extremely limited viable usage of mechs
-Crafting vs exploring progression at odds
-Planets become redundant
-No variation of underground structures or layouts
-NPC's that aren't merchants painfully bland and useless
-Crew members are brainless bullet sponges who stand in everyone's way. Even yours.
-Trying to read the lore is punishing to the player, the game does not pause when reading and hunger ticks down
-The story and progression is messy, and mods have no real answer
-Difficulty seesaws between too hard and too easy, and NPC quests do not scale to the the planet's threat level
-90% of loot is weapons. You'll have too many weapons and none strong enough for what you actually need to face
-You have to dedicate the game's accessory slot to an item called "EPP" in order to survive a planet for more than a minute.
-Boss loot is often underwhelming, and enemy loot is 90% low-tier crafting resources
-No minimap to track where you are or where you've been
-Sub menus like inventory and codex do not pause the game even if you play singleplayer
-No real to stifle enemy spawns for safe building, or increase them for combat
-Quest markers are often inaccurate and unreliable
I loved this game at first, got addicted even. While this game does have a lot of content, it doesn't have depth. Colony building, trading, events, missions, but they all feel very surface level. While it's easy to get caught up in the glitz and glamour of a new race mod, new weapon set, or a new planet, but that can only go so far. I kept getting sobered by the fact that these planets have nothing new but recolored rock and soil, I need a new EPP to survive on the planet, and encountering a village of the new race mod I installed only gives me 1 line quotes and the same awful quests I can get anywhere. I thought I try my hand in colony building, only to realize they don't have any of the charm or utility of minecraft's villagers or terraria's town NPC's. The one time you find a mission, structure or enemy encounter that's exactly to the level of your gear and weaponry, the fun ends the moment you realize enemies don't respawn/have a spawner to come back from and the moment is all gone once you deal with all the enemies. Even with mods, I do not reccommend starbound, it can't scratch the itch you're hoping it can get.
Fantastic game, especially with mods. People's expectations were so high for the game that it really got a bad rap, but if you were to play it in a vacuum, it's got about 100 hrs of fun in it (vanilla version) and all that for 5$? Yep, count me in.
I hate to finally put a negative review on my account, but this has to be genuinely one of the most disappointing game ever. Most of you guys probably knew this game by being a "Terraria but space" back in the days when it took some recognition from around the internet.
All of the mechanics in-game are so unnecessary and just simply troublesome for the players. The progression doesn't make any sense at all yet alone the story behind it. and as an icing on the cake, I'm pretty sure the developers just straight up abandoned the game after it's release. Just to show how bad the game itself, all of the Quality of Life mods, improvements and commodities provided by the community itself still can't fix how bad of a game this is. The only game I regretted buying and wish I could've just refunded it.
The only thing I can commend is their soundtrack which is fairly phenomenal on it's age. (0/10)
I builded a base on planet. That took me 1.5 hour. After some adventure i get back to that planet with mecha, but the game regenerated the whole planet. I almost lost everything :/.
underrated game. very nice art direction and game so far
this game is mid dont play it. im still gonna keep playing it. but you probably shouldnt.
It’s not so bad. Frackin universe makes it playable. Ignore my hours please
my brain goes places when I place this game and I start talking like a Floran (plant kiddos the best btw)
nah but for real, this game is about a 7/10. Fun (if simple) sandbox game with cute characters and some neat boss fights. Very much 'culture as costume' but it's okay the first playthrough.
I LOVE this game!!! it's so creative and unique, i would one hundred percent recommend playing multiplayer, it's really hard otherwise. The game is so fun and it has an amazing story to it. it's one of those games where you always have something to do, and you can play it multiple different ways as many other species! over all if i had to rate the game 1/10 id'e give it 100!
This game is compared a lot to Terraria, and especially in terms of replayability and potential Terraria is way better. However, Starbound is a whole other fun to play game that is presented in the same manner. It never gets grindy or feels stretched out. I wish it's potential was realized by the devs. Overall I'd give it a 7/10.
This game has a compelling story that surprises me every now and then, and a very interestring crafting system where you can change the landscape by collecting/ depositing materials. A big organized wiki in starbounder.org adds icing to the cake.
This game had a really good idea and mod scene but it was promptly abandoned by the devs and really isnt worth your time unless you dont mind the fact the base game kind of sucks but can be wildly improved and made fun with mods. However there is kind of a limit to that and the game will likely never be updated again, as the last update was in 2019.
The game is alright to play although the story and progression has a huge lack of smoothness to it, usually telling the player to do the next boss immediately after the first one without giving any breaks for the player to explore manually and not just focus on the task they were given. Not only is this horrible for the player to find genuine appreciation for the game, the main story quests are pretty much the same thing and at the end of it all, the player will most likely leave the game without any attachment.
It's fun. Tried it pirated and then bought it to support the developer.
Ah Starbound. A game i can say is one of my favorites even to this day but with knowing that this game might never get another update ever. I just can't help but feel bad for this game it had a lot going for it and it is a great game. And yes i do know of the stuff that happened with the devs. Even then i still have this strong wish to just see this game get updated again. Because if there was ever a game that really needs a second chance it is this game. And i want to just say thanks to the devs of this game and the mod devs and Cutis Schweitzer for making some of my happiest moments in my life. And another thank you to the playerbase of this game because without all of you Starbound would have never become like this. So to the universe of Starbound merry christmas and a happy new year. And here is hoping that next year will be another year of people having fun playing what they want.
TOOOTALLY enjoy this game!! I've played it since it was in beta, and I don't regret it ever. Every time I'm looking for a complex and detailed sandbox game to get my creativity going, I always run to Starbound. I've spent so many hours fighting bosses and building houses and not ONCE have I ever felt like this game disappointed me. The plot and detail in the universe is immaculate, and never fails to amaze me each time I travel to another solar system. It really saved me from some rough times, and I know it'll help me through more.
I cannot recommend this game while Terraria exists. Starbound set out to do so much more, and failed nearly every step of the way. Very underwhelming.
It breaks my heart that this game is not as popular as terraria.
Really fun game, story is pretty good but a little generic, mods are awesome and theres tons of them but sadly the multiplayer is really shitty and hard to make work, when it does work it's perfect.
If starbound has no fans then i am dead.
Meh, its a sandbox with potential that got kneecapped by some stupid "savior of the universe" storyline that you cant avoid.
I spent this much time to figure out that, I am that stupid yes, you can still hunt and grind to get good gear and make a lil cute colony and it is fun! but i cant help but just feel like a lot of the potential got put in the bin to make place for a main questline that had no place in a game like this.
Also please, dropping almost all your items when dying? really? Its not because Minecraft does it that suddenly its a good game loop to lose your items and have to stress over getting them back before they disappear, its so annoying that its been 4 years since I played this and I still have memories of having to panic rush through a dungeon I had cleared so I can get my items back.
Honestly if it wasn't for the furry bait and mod support there would be no reason at all to buy this.
If you're the type of person that likes a good base game to add mods on top to enhance/expand then this isn't gonna be for you.
If you don't mind a shallow experience because mods will do the work for the devs, then sure go for it!
its so cool!!! i love the variety of worlds u get to explore plus its fun having a spaceship
Lowkey think it's fun, have freedom, doesn't feel to difficult, but it's definitely not just a piece of cake, great balance, and I love messing around, it has lot's of variety and a great story, haven't beat the game yet but I've played for a while, and I love it, worth the money imo.
Flawed, but underneath all the scuff the game is actually pretty fun.
The game itself is really cool. I like the idea, but it crashes constantly for unknown reasons and has a clueless storyline.
Could be better, but I overall like it.
I highly recommend this game. It's so fun to play the story, but there's also so much you can do after you complete the story. Building colonies are fun as well as getting all of the collectibles, which I haven't done yet. The story is engaging and the fights aren't impossible, but they aren't easy either. I like how you can decorate your ship and have a crew. There's so much personalization to the game which is fantastic if you like to decorate and design a base while you conquer worlds.
Played during beta and the content updates made it great. Now that its out on full release the "completed" game feels like it lacks any soul.
It had a lot of potential but now its basically a "terraria in space but boring."
Loved this game in its early days and despite it being a shell of what it could have been I still recommend at least giving it a try because the modding community makes the game fun.
This is basically Terraria but with infinite space exploration on top of the most odd looking creatures you'll see in any game of this sort. The only comparison to how some of the creatures look would be how goofy you can make your character look in ARK Survival.
ive been playing this game since beta days and i recommend anyone who picks this game up to it with fracken universe and or on unstable for more content. going to 1.o removed a LOT of things unfortunatly.
Its fun playing modded mostly there are a lot of mods that are a fun add on it helps with some gameplay
Super duper fun!! I've played a bunch of this with friends, and I adore it! It's got everything I love: mining, crafting, exploring, fighting, even fossils!!!! I love fossils!!
The customization is great! You have a lot of control over what you look like, and what you can build! Do whatever you want forever!! In space!!
Starbound, tragically, never aspired to be anything other than "Terraria in spaaaace!".
For example, let's say you arrive at a planet, beam down to a random spot, and find that it's nighttime. You want daytime, so you just beam to the opposite side of the planet ... right? Nope, can't do that.
Just no effort to make the experience make sense in its setting.
Sandbox, Space, Guns, Puzzles and Quests. Everything I love in a game
at first the game looks great, but its very repetitive all the "worlds" look the same with different skins on it
Kinda wandered around for a bit at first but after getting to grips with the game it's been fun. A nice game if you want to relax and float around by yourself or with company once your ship is up and running.
A lot of folks recommend playing Starbound with mods, and i agree, playing with mods makes the game vastly better into one of my favorites ever, but the actual game itself is miserable, and the devs abandonment of it speaks volumes of their integrity as a studio. If you do want to get the game, get it on sale, the fraking universe mod makes the game a legitimate favorite, but the sheer fact that fraking universe so vastly outdoes the game itself is shameful, being outdone near 3/1 by a mod is ridiculous.
unmodded? 4/10 and thats being generous
modded? 9/10 one of the best experiances ive had with a game like it
hate that i cant reccomed the game itself, but at least it can act as an engine...
Learning about the development history of this game, it's shocking that it even came out at all. But god damn is it a mess. Combat is wonky, the progression is all over the place, and for the LOVE OF GOD WHY ARE ALL THE CRAFTING RECIPES A PAIN IN THE ASS! Look there's great potential with the mods, but after 70 hours I feel nothing with this game.
Borderless Window mode is a literal lie, the game does NOT function with Borderless Window, it just continues to perform as though fullscreen. Why give me the damn option if I have to install scripts for Windows to actually make it work as intended. Devs never fixed this, has been an issue since launch.
And I refuse to install 3rd party processes to actually make the game work as intended with this setting.
