Most Stars Are Far

An infinite seeded galaxy you can always return to — scan worlds, work the exchange, and fill a codex that's the only score that lasts.

You hold a deep survey commission on the outer verge. One hull, one sensor suite, and a sky that has never been cataloged.

Most Stars Are Far is a 2D space survey game built on a procedurally generated galaxy with no edges. Sectors are hashed from a single seed the moment you pan over them, and every star, planet, resource vein and anomaly falls out of that number in a fixed order. Nothing is stored. Fly out, come back a week later, and the same molten world is in the same orbit with the same iridium still in the ground.

CHARTING. The star map is a live canvas you drag and pinch across. Systems you have visited light up; the ones you have not stay dim. Warping costs fuel scaled by distance, and long jumps roll for an encounter.

SURVEYING. Every system opens into an animated orrery with its worlds on real orbital bands. Each world is one of twelve types — terran, pelagic, arid, glacial, molten, toxic, barren, gas giant, ringed giant, crystalline, verdant, shattered — each with its own gravity, temperature, color, atmosphere and life signature. An orbital sweep maps the crust; a deep survey reaches everything under it.

EXTRACTION. Resource veins carry a richness and a depth. Your drill tier decides how far down you can reach, and probes run on a timer whether the app is open or not. Eighteen commodities move through the economy — twelve pulled from the ground and six that only exist once the refinery has processed them.

COMMERCE. Every exchange has its own spread, its own docking tax and its own demand curve, and prices ride a noise field rather than a random walk — so a trend you read off the sparkline holds long enough to act on. Dumping a full hold softens the local price. The contract board pays a premium over the open market, on a clock.

THE SHIP. Six upgrade branches, five steps each: warp drive, sensor suite, cargo hold, mining rig, hull and shields, refinery line. Crew are hired from a roster of the people who are actually in orbit right now, and each specialist improves one part of the operation for as long as they stay aboard.

THE CODEX. Every world you sweep is filed permanently. Codex value is what your rank is built from, and it is the one number that only ever goes up.
