About this game
Description
Supplied by the Steam store
Spiritus Astrum, or "Spirit of the Stars" is a persistent, open-world, roleplaying sandbox, with multiplayer support. It features an infinite, procedurally generated universe which players are free to explore without restriction.
Spiritus Astrum is an indie title created by a single developer, passionate about games.
Please be advised that Spiritus Astrum is currently in an early, beta, state. There are bugs!
Currently, the SteamDeck is not officially supported.
Solar systems, Stellar phenomena, and planets, are realistically scaled, and players can land and explore, craft, and build at their leisure, using a variety of spaceships, vehicles, and tools.
Spiritus Astrum is designed around emergent gameplay, with randomised NPC's, quests, enemies, and resources.
Combat in Spiritus Astrum is optional, the game features diplomacy, trading, and stealth in addition to combat. Conflict between players is not allowed, players may work together to explore or build, but may not engage in coflict. This encourages a cooperative, roleplaying atmosphere.
In addition to customising their characters appearance, players can choose traits and a background for their character. They can be a trader, a diplomat, an explorer, a war veteran, and more.
The game features "life simulation", players will need to eat, drink and sleep, in addition to training their various skills.
The Skill system is also dynamic, over-training some skills will reduce others, this prevents the "grind" often seen in other games of this type.
In Spiritus Astrum, players may live a true "virtual life". Players can purchase apartments, land, build homes, and even own their own ringworlds or entire planets!
Players can spend their time travelling the stars on board their ship, living within a densly populated city, or exploring vast worlds alone or with AI or human friends.
Spiritus Astrum is persistent, the players actions and choices matter, and will affect how NPC's and factions perceive them. If the player has a positive relationship with an NPC, they may agree to join your crew, or give you a discount on store purchases. However, with a negative relationship, they may not talk to the player at all!
In the future, Spiritus Astrum will also feature the ability for players to create their own stories to share with other players, and the ability to use the games tools to create unique enemies, weapons, and items.
Spiritus Astrum is more than a game, it is a world.

Minor updates to the UI, Minor improvements to collision geometry placement on the Vanguard
Read full update on Steam ↗Update 30
Improved OpenAI support in the LLM frontend. Added a "model" selector so that the player can select a compatible model (gpt-5.4, gpt-5.6, etc). The results in game are very good, responses are fast, and make sense.
Read full update on Steam ↗Update 29
I have created an entirely new bug reporter feature: Clicking TAB>Report a Bug will now allow users to send a bug report directly from within the game, and can optionally include their log files with the report, which will help a log with diagnosing and fixing bugs Fixed a minor issue with the mouse invert feature. Added the ability for players to leave "Markers" during multiplayer play (Only one marker can be created per hour). I have also decided to disallow creation of "Homesteads" and Planetary/Territory claim markers in multiplayer for the time being. I have also made some improvements to the multiplayer server, and added some additional admin functions
Read full update on Steam ↗Update 28
Made some improvements to the UI. If the user shows the MPC while another menu is displayed, the other menu should now be automatically hidden. If the user is interacting with a companion or NPC, the interaction menu should be hidden, and then resumed when the MPC is hidden. Added basic support for OpenAI. LLM support is still in beta, but the functionality works. Select "Enable LLM frontend" in the sim options, Then enter your open AI API key and hostname, and set formatting to "Remote(OpenAI)", Then click save.
Read full update on Steam ↗Update 27
Made substantial changes to the server and client side loading system to fix a bug where steam updates were overwriting save data. This may break existing save files! Added a message informing users how to use the fire extinguisher
Read full update on Steam ↗Update 26
Added options (In the Sim options menu) to Invert Mouse X and Y The LLM frontend (Can we Talk? Option) is now disabled by default. It can be enabled by selecting "Enable LLM frontend" In the Sim options menu. LLM's must be configured by the user. Fixed a minor issue that can cause the players rotation to be wrong when leaving the escape pod.
Read full update on Steam ↗Update 25
Added a text display to indicate the stage of the loading process. Fixed an issue causing one of the loading screen images to show up as a blank white screen. Fixed a server side bug with loading AI persistent world states Improved loading of shuttles in the world, and fixed an issue with the "civilian shuttle" where it's center of mass was slightly off during rotation.
Read full update on Steam ↗Update 24
Generating road meshes can cause FPS issues in some cases, especially when a large number of roads are generated when the user is landing on a planet. Graphics settings now have an option to show/hide roads, and some graphics presets automatically hide them. This should reduce issues with the game slowing down when approaching planets in some cases. Fixed some issues with spawning shuttles in the world. Added the "Valkyrie Fighter" as a random spawn in the world. Added and "autolaunch" to the Vanguard. Fixed an issue with resetting the Vanguard shuttle. Valkyrie Fighter can now be docked with the Vanguard, however it is too big for manual launch, autodock/autolaunch must be used.
Read full update on Steam ↗Update 23
Enlarged docking trigger around vanguard, making docking procedure easier. Fixed a minor audio glitch that occurred while piloting the shuttle.

Read full update on Steam ↗Update 15
Improved UI: To display the MPC, press TAB and not Escape. This is more intuitive, and common with other games. ESC now resets the players view/camera and closes all menu screens. Added a "Quickstart" guide.
Read full update on Steam ↗Update 14
The Zone-Based Optimisation system on the vanguard is disabled by default. It can be re-enabled using the in-game options menu. Pressing "PgDn" should close any menus, preventing players from getting "stuck" in a menu. Added a message to inform users that the "Can we Talk?" Option for AI requires an LLM to be installed first. Prevented possible out of bounds issue on Vanguard.
Read full update on Steam ↗Update 13
Added a "Quality" selector to the graphic menu on the startup screen which allows players substantially greater control over their graphics settings. This should help the game to run on older hardward. Made substantial changes and improvements to the movement system. Movement now feels much more natural and there is a lot less "Sliding" and "Bouncing". Players also get stuck on small obstacles and microterrain a lot less. Jetpack movement is also more consistent. Fixed issues allowing players to jump while already in the air.

Read full update on Steam ↗Update 9

Read full update on Steam ↗Spiritus Astrum Update July 2026
I am hopeful that I will finally be able to get Spiritus Astrum into Early Access at some point this year.All that is left for the EA release is testing, debugging, and some tutorial menus and in-game hints.The game is mostly single player at the moment, with three single player campaigns and a single player survival scenario.I have also added a multiplayer survival scenario as well, although this is in beta.
Read full update on Steam ↗Spiritus Astrum Update April 2026
Spiritus Astrum is progressing well, and an Early Access release should not be too far off.The games three campaigns are basically done, with hopefully just testing and debugging left to do. The campaigns will feature a combination of survival, crafting, space exploration and space combat.There will also be a free roaming mode and possibly a simple multiplayer mode as well (with more improvements coming after the initial Early Access release).
Read full update on Steam ↗Spiritus Astrum Update October 2025
It has been over a year since the Spiritus Astrum Demo has been released on steam.In that time, the project has advanced massively, with two new campaigns being added as well as a whole host of new content, dialog, characters, weapons, ships, and other improvements.In the initial release of Spiritus Astrum, there will be three campaigns, with an estimated 10 hours of content, with additional free roaming capabilities as well. I am hoping to add basic multiplayer support in the initial release as well.Although there is a lot more to be done, Spiritus Astrum is moving closer and closer to release every day.
