'Space Prison' Steam Early Access Launch Delayed Until Later This Summer

by Rainier on April 3, 2024 @ 4:09 p.m. PDT

Space Prison is a tactical turn-based survival brawler where you rise through the ranks and brawl their way to intergalactic freedom!

Set in an intergalactic maximum security prison in the darkest hole in the universe, Space Prison is an experimental entity, gathering both guilty and innocent alien creatures under the jurisdiction of the artificial system.

Taking on the role of one of the odd alien creatures, gamers will uncover the mystery of this grim facility and a legendary convict who is said to have escaped it. Space Prison’s unique social ladder system will see players forming alliances and enemies in a fight for survival; joining gangs and earning respect to rise to the top and, maybe one day, reaching the ultimate goal: sweet freedom!

Space Prison features a diverse cast of questionable cosmic characters, each with their own special abilities, as well as weapons and equipment that can be crafted and upgraded. On the inside, players choose one of the galactic gangs to join, each supporting a different play style and unique mechanics, as well as its own secret gang hideout. The game also serves up plenty of cell-base customization, collecting junky scraps and improving super-fancy furnishings: rocky crafting bench, storage in the hole behind posters, all the prison-break essentials.

Hello inmates,

We would like to inform you that Space Prison's Early Access release has been delayed to an unannounced date later this Summer, and will therefore no longer be released on its initial date of April 10, 2024.

We believe postponing the release is the best decision because we want the game to meet your highest expectations while finding the best opportunities to showcase the game to the broadest audience. We are touched to see that so many of you are excited to play the game. Our player community is more than valuable during these additional months of development. That’s why we are working on a tool to let you submit your ideas for features and content, and vote on them. It will be released soon.

We will regularly check in with you and plan closed playtests. In the meantime, the demo will still be live for a few more days. We thank you for your patience and understanding.

We are grateful for your contribution and ongoing support on this journey!

Key Features:

  • SOCIAL SURVIVAL: Earn the trust and respect of the criminals to make them your allies. Build useful connections by helping prisoners with various jobs and learn personal stories hidden underneath those crooked faces. Just don’t step on the wrong alien’s toes. It may be the last thing you ever do.
  • TACTICAL TURN-BASED BRAWLS: Fight other convicts, alien creatures and the prison system in fast-paced, tactical turn-based brawls. Use your brain and allies, and move those feet quickly if you don’t want your motionless body to float through space.
  • PRISON CELL BASE: Get cozy in your own prison cell, collect junky scraps and improve your super-fancy furnishings: rocky crafting bench, hidden storage behind posters or even a house for your pet rats. There’s no better place than home, right?
  • CRAFTING CONTRABAND: Look for scraps, destroy prison property, hunt alien vermin - all to get resources for crafting illegal tools and weapons that you or your inmates need. Be careful not to get caught and you’ll do just fine, fish.
  • BECOME A GANG BOSS: Join one of the prison gangs, like Gravity Fist or Hypernova, with different alien creatures, agendas and fighting styles. Use their backs to climb to the top of a social ladder and become powerful enough to face the prison system itself.
  • RAT COMPANIONS: There is no better friend than a rat. Gather snacks for these filthy creatures and soon enough you’ll have an army of long-toothed vermins ready to die for you. Just look into their cute red eyes

Space Prison is in development for PS5, Xbox Series X|S and PC (Steam).
