Project Longshot

Inspired by the machines, the physics, and the sheer scale of real spaceflight. Project Longshot hands you a struggling space program and asks only one question. How far can your program go?

Launch from a familiar world into a to scale solar system of beautiful, unforgiving planets. Then step out and build the colony infrastructure, drills, habitats and factories that carry you to the next world.

A SOLAR SYSTEM BUILT FROM THE REAL ONE
Land and walk where the Apollo astronauts took their first steps. Then go further, out to 31 more worlds that have only ever been seen by a passing probe.
Fly a Martian canyon ahead of a dust storm. Walk out onto the cracked ice of Europa, or stand under Titan's orange sky beside a methane lake.
Be the first to land, explore, and colonise real places that people may walk upon within your lifetime.

BUILD THE ROCKET
Assemble your craft part by part, from a first suborbital hop up to heavy lifters, landers, rovers and spaceplanes. Everything you bolt on changes the way it flies with real aerodynamics and over 250 parts to choose from.
Then stage it, fuel it, crew it, paint it, and roll it out to the pad and into the stars.

FLY IT YOURSELF
Real orbital mechanics the whole way. Fly the ascent by hand, plan your burns on a real orbital map, and coast across interplanetary space to your target. Rendezvous, dock, aerobrake, and ride it down through re-entry.

COLONISE
Get out of your lander and deploy drills, build habitats and grow food. Convert raw materials into finished products, synthesize fuel and build launch pads. Learn advanced technologies and develop industry. Direct crew and set up hauling routes. Landing on the surface is just the beginning of your next adventure.

A seamless solar system exploration and colony game at real scale and with no loading screens.
