Sputnik

Sputnik is a single-player arcade space game with cyberpunk-style graphics and a retro feel. You explore abandoned Soviet space settlements, repair their electricity, oxygen and water generators, and make them habitable. The game uses lives and permadeath.

Explore and repair

Search each settlement for pickups and materials, repair its generators and try to survive. The game has multiple levels, each generated semi-procedurally to make each playthrough a little different.

Upgrade your ship and weapon

At the start of each level, you can upgrade your ship using scraps left from the previous level. You can also spend scraps to improve your weapon’s fire rate and ammo capacity.

Mods and soundtrack

You can change various player and game properties through mods, including by setting default values in a simple text file. The music and sounds draw on classic 8-bit, synthwave and ambient music.
