Astrostead

Welcome to Astrostead, a captivating retro sci-fi tile game set on a mysterious gas giant in the depths of space. As the overseer of this new settlement, players are tasked with the challenging mission of managing essential resources while ensuring the happiness of their emerging population. Striking a delicate balance between resource production, consumption, and citizen satisfaction becomes the key to success. Watch as the vibrant Astrostead unfolds revealing the challenges and wonders of life on this distant gas giant. But beware, for if any of the vital resources run dry, your settlement will reach its end!

Our game is complete with original musical compositions, custom 3D and 2D models, and a ground-up codebase collectively to contribute to a unique gaming experience. The conceptualization process began with Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) design principles and strategic brainstorming techniques. Progressing through iterative phases the project has culminated in a fully realized game that seamlessly integrates tile-based strategic gameplay with the unpredictable dynamics introduced by random chance card draws.

Over many braais and late nights we have often chatted about forming a team with our skill sets. Having been friends for many years we can honestly say we had a fantastic time making this game and learning about each other’s crafts. We wish all teams the best of luck! And we can’t wait to play all the games created during this jam! 

Peace and love
