Is Kinetic Void worth it for you?
We tell you who should skip it, too.
Play it if you…
Good fit- Space simulation fans who want to design their own vessels
- Sandbox players who prefer self-directed trading, combat, or piracy
- Players who enjoy replayable galaxies with changing factions and sectors
Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking a linear campaign with a defined main storyline
- Players who prefer fixed galaxy layouts and predictable faction relationships over generated worlds
- Players looking for a compact space combat game rather than a mix of shipbuilding, exploration, combat, and trading
Our take on Kinetic Void
The defining structure is a procedurally generated galaxy without a main storyline: each new game creates its sectors, factions, and contents, while the player chooses whether to trade, fight, ally, pursue piracy, or build wealth.
What is Kinetic Void?
Build spacecraft piece by piece from cockpits, hulls, engines, weapons, and aesthetic modules, then modify their subsystems and colors.
Ships can serve as fighters, freighters, or carriers, with module statistics affecting performance and damage potentially destroying subsystems. Explore galaxies generated with new sectors, factions, political relationships, and sector contents for each game. Trade, fight, ally with factions, pursue piracy, or accumulate wealth without a fixed main storyline. Real-time combat includes broadside attacks, strafing runs, drones, and three control modes. A kinetic field can protect the ship and activate the Micro Warp Drive. Created ships can be saved to a computer or shared through Steam Workshop.
