The Development Process
My name is Andy and I am the developer of Space One - Electron!
I have massive plans for this game!
However, I want to be completely transparent with you all!
This game is an indie title and is built by just me! I work on it about 30-40 hours per week, and have a full time career and a family as well.
To give you a idea of how much work goes into a game:
Call of Duty is made by a team of 60+ people @ 12 hours per day. Each iteration (Version) takes about 3 years to make. That's 690,000+ hours of development!
Space One - Electron has a little over 1,200 development hours so far! It is a long way from finished!!!
What I can promise:
- There will be bugs!
- Some updates will get delayed, even cancelled!
- The planned content may change!
- It will take 3-5 years to be fully ready.
- Work and Family will always come first!
- You may lose save games!
- The final product of this game will be ABSOLUTELY EPIC!
Buying the game is a way to support the growth and development of the game, and be a part of that process.
This is what early access is all about!
However, if you are not ready to handle bugs then I do not recommend you buy the game at this time!
I do, however, encourage you to join our community on discord and follow our progress!
About the Game
Currently, not all features listed below are available. We are a small studio and are developing Space One - Electron as fast as we can.We start in deep space, in a small ship called the 'Electron'.
• Explore the universe, its stars, worlds and moons.
• Mine asteroids, gas clouds, ice fields, and comets to gather resources.
• Construct space stations and space colonies and grow your galactic empire!
• Craft ship parts, character armor, buildings and so much more!
• Manage colony resources through manual labour or through commanding drones, robots and workers to harvest for you!
• Buy, sell and trade resources at various colonies you create in an attempt to establish a home for humanity amongst the stars.
• Construct space farms, to feed your people, fuel your research and expand your empire!
• Research hundreds of techs used to advance yourself and your colonies!
• Improve your ship, buy new ships and improve your skills to aid you in every part of the game!
• Explore planets, and construct planetary colonies in a glorious attempt to gain galactic supremacy!
The June 2022 Update will contain a lot of new features and improvements.
Here is a quick look at ship interiors:

Space One - Update
As many of you may know, I have postponed releasing any new updates in favour of releasing one massive update. This update is coming along swimmingly, and will be released at some point later in the year. At some point the video game industry decided it was okay to release games with bugs, and I hopped on that wagon when I made Electron. I created the game without fully polishing it and there were many bugs that required me to stop and take a look at how I was doing things. This new update which I have been working on since November of 2022, will replace all content currently in the game. Everything has been rebuilt. From the HUD to the menus, to the characters. Not one thing has not been rebuilt. A New Name Upon the release of the new update, we will re-brand the game as Space One (dropping the Electron from the end). Completeness As a new indie developer, there were a lot of assumptions made when making my first published game. One of which was that I could improve the game as I went along. Whilst not entirely inaccurate, the content needs to be there first. It needs to already be fully fun and playable and this is an area I failed you all on. I wont be making this mistake again. When this new update is released, it is my intent to ensure the highest level of craftsmanship possible. This means as bug free as I can possibly make it, as complete as I can possibly make it (Content excluded, that will be added with time, for example more equipment, more buildings, more ship parts, more mobs, more skills, more resources), filled with tutorials, a strong save system that can withstand the growth of the game, and maximized customization. The Current State of the Game Currently, I am adding the new game menu. Here, you will customize your character which will allow you to select Gender, facial features, hair and eye colour, background, stats and skills. I have developed planets, and the player now starts on the planet and has to work their way into space. The main menu no...Read full article on Community Announcements (Triangle4Studios)AnnouncementsOfficial
MAC SUPPORT - DISCONTINUED
It is with a heavy heart that I have had to let go of electron development for mac. Those of you who bought the game for mac (only 3 of you) can reach out to me and I can find a solution for you. Steam may not offer a refund but I may be able to. We do not have the resources nor the manpower to take on this huge change! Hopefully later down the road we can. Kindly, Your Dev - Andy.Read full article on Community Announcements (Triangle4Studios)Patch NotesOfficial
Development Progress - Update
Work has taken priority over the game. As many of you are aware, the cost of living is going up everywhere! There is a lot of new content ready to be released but it is not yet complete. This update is still on hold until it is completed which is now looking like December. I apologize as I love making Electron. But there is no point making it unless I have time to do it right! So be patient, and hang on! I have a 6 week vacation in Mid November to January 1st. During this time I will put 12+ hours per day into updates and bugfixes! Thank you all for joining me on this journey! The path is difficult, but we will get there!Read full article on Community Announcements (Triangle4Studios)Patch NotesOfficial
Introducing Mac M1 and Intel Support (Experimental)
We have now released support for Mac. I will say that it is a complicated endeavour, and so should you encounter any issues, direct them to me on the discord and please be patient. Whilst it will work on basic macbook pro's, it may need a little more power than a macbook pro's graphics card can provide. (Macbook dependent of course)Read full article on Community Announcements (Triangle4Studios)
