Red Dwarf Frontier is a top-down 2D sci-fi strategy game focused on space exploration, resource mining, and colony development. After emerging from a warp jump, you must establish a thriving civilization in a vast red dwarf system. Supply the population with water, oxygen, food, medicine, and energy, construct industrial stations, power plants, a shipyard, and an interstellar warp gate. Mine asteroids, manage a dynamic economy, build cargo tankers and combat ships, expand external trade, and defend your stations from pirate raids. Population, employment, morale, and prosperity respond to your decisions. Your ultimate goal is to transform an isolated outpost into a powerful interstellar trading hub.
How to play
Control your scout ship with the virtual joystick, WASD, or arrow keys. Explore the star system, scan asteroids, and mine resources. Return to the residential station, approach a docking entrance, and use the interaction button. Sell materials, fund the colony treasury, and purchase stations, upgrades, and ships. Develop life support, mining, energy production, and the shipyard while monitoring jobs, supplies, morale, and population welfare. Use cargo tankers to transport resources. Build a combat fleet and issue orders through the strategic radar. Defend your stations from pirate raids and repair damaged structures. Avoid flying too close to the red dwarf. Construct the solar and fusion power stations, then complete the warp gate to finish the campaign.
