Description
About This Game
It's You vs. the Frontier, and the Frontier doesn't take kindly to strangers.
Travel to the untamed Stardust Frontier, and forge into the unknown in this roguelike microgaming party adventure! Team up with up to four players and battle against hostile wildlife, scrappy scavengers, and terrifying bosses! Your phones are your controllers, and through them you'll play a myriad of microgames to take aim, fire powerful weapons, repair your mech, and unleash devastating team tactics against your foes!
As you travel through the Frontier, you'll find new equipment, and weaponry, and relics to kit out your mech, encounter strange merchants and unexpected events, and fight all sorts of threatening foes for riches and material. Master the microgames and outperform your teammates to show off your skills, then work with them in times of need to avoid utter destruction! Fight together and claim victory!
Buy Once, Play with the Whole Group - Only the host needs to own the game. Players can hop right in on their phones, no purchase required!
Positions and Classes - Each player controls a unique character with wildly varying abilities, who is responsible for one part of the mech! Combine your unique skills to save yourselves from destruction, and augment and replace your mech parts until you're rocking an incomprehensible amalgam of machinery!
Tactical Microgame Action - Formulate a plan based on your opponent's intents, and use your microgame skills to power your actions! But be careful—Not all foes will wait for you to blast them into orbit! Enemies can dispatch unique reactive intents that change depending on your actions!
Procedurally Generated Runs - With every run taking place on a unique procedurally generated world, there's infinite possibilities and paths to take!
In-Person or over the Net - Stardust Frontier works great whether you're all crowded on a single couch, or spread halfway across the world. Any number of host monitors can connect to a single game, so you don't even need to stream your computer screen!
Every Atom is Customizable - Nobody likes those party games that force you to play that one game everyone hates every. single. TIME. Not feeling a microgame? Turn it off! Want to customize the map size, encounter difficulty, round time, or even make an entirely predetermined run for your friends to suffer through? Fly at it! We've done everything we can to make this the most flexible party game experience you'll ever have.
Unlocks that Don't Unlock your Bank Account - Microtransactions are so not it. Every cosmetic and customization option is unlocked through gameplay, and we're keeping it that way.

Stardust Frontier takes full advantage of your mobile device's capabilities for its controllers. Each player must use a phone or tablet to control the game. To play, launch the Steam game and start a lobby. The game window is your Host Monitor, and all players need to be able to see it at all times. Then, players scan the QR code on-screen to open the mobile controls in their web browsers, no purchase or sign-up required!
Any number of desktop browsers can be connected as additional Host Monitors to a lobby, mirroring the contents of the main screen. Instructions can be found in the game.
