Shortest Trip to Earth Now on Steam Early Access

Shortest Trip to Earth developed by Interactive Fate is now available for purchase from Steam Early Access, at $19.99 and a 15% discount for the rest of this week. There’s a new trailer to celebrate this which can be seen below.

In STtE, you take command of your spaceship in a procedurally generated universe. Every decision on the ship is yours to take, which direction to take, which upgrades to focus on, and how you treat your crew. As you travel through space in the midst of an intergalactic war, you will meet weird and interesting species, and mysterious planets.

Over 1000 pieces of sci-fi art feature in Shortest Trip to Earth, though these shouldn’t be a distraction from the real-time combat and permadeath that adds gravitas to all your decisions within the game.

Edvin Aedma, lead designer of Shortest Trip to Earth, says: “We are extremely excited to make our project available on Steam, having been in development for five years. Like my previous title “Teleglitch“, “Shortest Trip to Earth” will swiftly lead players into the hardcore survival zone. The game presents an atmospheric, rich world that rewards exploration and demands you to cope with deadly, often desperate conditions… or die in permadeath and start over.

The Shortest Trip universe is harsh, and continuously chips away at hit points, resources, ammo, drones and crew, until you need to start scrapping parts of your ship to keep on going. The game is packed witty tongue-in-cheek comments and innuendo that will appeal to a mature audience.”
