Our take on BLASTRONAUT
Rather than structuring exploration around quests, BLASTRONAUT centers it on mining trips: travel with a jetpack, extract minerals, then return to a base to process and trade resources.
What is BLASTRONAUT?
BLASTRONAUT is a mining game set on a procedurally generated alien planet.
Explore its world with a jetpack, extract minerals using explosive gel, and sell resources for profit. The planet’s depths contain distinct biomes, treasures, and hazards, with each biome presenting its own dangers. Gear can be upgraded for mining operations. On the surface, build a base and use machines to process and trade resources brought back from expeditions. The gameplay combines exploration and resource extraction with base-building and equipment upgrades, while survival remains part of each operation.
