What is Starship EVO?
Starship EVO is an early-access space survival and building sandbox set across planets and star systems. After a crash strands you on a planet, you mine resources, craft gear, build vehicles and starships, then explore space, trade at stations, take missions, and fight pirates while managing fuel and oxygen.
For you if...
- +you enjoy designing ships with mechanical parts and logic
- +you like mining and crafting toward spaceflight
Not for you if...
- −you prefer a guided story over an open sandbox
- −you dislike managing fuel and oxygen during space travel
What players say
83% of 1,539 reviews are positive · 60% of 20 in the last 30 days
Players praise the flexible shipbuilding tools, especially stretchable blocks and logic systems, and welcome the newer survival mode. Their main complaints are bugs and crashes; some also find the interface and flight controls clunky and the survival gameplay shallow. Players report multiplayer connection problems, and the developer advises playing solo for now.
