Creepy Jar, the Polish studio behind the smash-hit survival phenomenon, Green Hell, is ready to turn up the heat. The studio’s sophomore effort, StarRupture, is available now on Steam Early Access, inviting players to build, automate, and survive on a planet that’s literally on the brink of fiery destruction. Playing solo or with up to 4 players together, StarRupture’s Early Access release is the culmination of Creepy Jar’s well-earned experience alongside crucial feedback from their dedicated fans, and there’s so much more to come in the journey to 1.0.
Blending base building, survival, automation, and defensive combat into a single experience, StarRupture pushes players to think fast and plan smart as the environment becomes increasingly dangerous, whether it be from the Vermin assaulting your base or the impending KABOOM of Arcadia-7’s life-giving star, Ruptura, and players can jump in today at a special Early Access launch price of $15.99 (20% launch discount) before it goes to its regular price of $19.99.
In the run-up to Early Access, Creepy Jar hosted two dedicated playtests—one for solo survivors and one for co-op crews—using player feedback to fine-tune the experience. The result? A scorching 92.4% positive rating from playtesters. With Early Access officially underway, the team is eager to keep shaping StarRupture alongside the community as development pushes toward version 1.0.
Keeping that in mind, alongside today’s launch, the Creepy Jar team is also sharing the game’s very first roadmap so players can get an idea of what’s heading their way over the next few months and beyond, including:
- Explore a Deadly Planet – Explore this vast, open world, rich in resources, places, and secrets to be found. Discover the beauty of this constantly reborn, dangerous world torn apart by repeated cataclysms.
- Build to Thrive – Search, mine, and process resources to develop your complex industrial system. Unlock new technologies that will allow you and your base to survive the harsh conditions on the planet.
- Fight to Survive – The planet will surprise you at every turn. Extreme temperatures are not the only things you’ll be challenged with. Get ready to defend yourself and your base from a horde of aggressive alien creatures.
- Alone or with Friends – Experience and survive everything you encounter on this harsh planet. Do it alone or in a group of up to 4 friends. This world is waiting for you to discover its secrets.
In StarRupture, you are a prisoner serving your sentence on a faraway planet where danger lurks at every turn. Tasked with building a factory and gathering resources for global corporations that don’t care if you live or die, survival on Arcadia-7 is anything but guaranteed. Not only will you have to defend your base from menacing enemies, but you’ll also have to prepare for a somewhat more terrifying threat; the planet’s very own life-giving—and taking—star, Ruptura.
