Sundust: Cozy Space Program

One rocket. One pocket-sized solar system. All the time in the world — and other suns past the edge of it. Sundust is a cozy space program that runs on real orbital mechanics. Every planet, moon and asteroid is truly in motion — you don't just point and fly, you swing through gravity, catch transfer windows, and learn to love the RETRO burn. Then you land (gently, please), climb down the ladder, and get to work. FLY — Real gravity, live orbits, a dotted trajectory that shows where you're headed, and time warp for the long hauls. Watch the Moon go through its phases and catch an eclipse when the shadows line up. Easy to start, endlessly satisfying to master. WALK — Step out in your suit. MO, your co-pilot, stays aboard and keeps you company on the radio while the world you landed on becomes a place: the horizon levels, the sky turns blue where there's air, and other planets rise and set. Every world has its own life — grass, flowers and rabbits that bolt on Earth, breathing moss on the Grove, glowing ground that answers your footsteps, trees that walk toward winter — and the dead worlds have their weather: dust devils on Mars, slow methane rain on Titan. Sail painted seas in a copper skiff, and keep an eye on the sky. Some things only happen while you're standing there. DIG — Hold DIG and your hand beam cuts real hollows into the ground. Fill your pack, find the glowing seams of rarer stuff, and carry it back to the ship. BUILD — Rigs keep mining in real time, even while the app is closed. Add depots, habitats, solar farms and reactors, then power up refineries and turn raw ore into goods worth real money. FOLLOW THE SIGNAL — A story leads you from your first wobbly liftoff to something buried under Pluto's ice… and what answers when you bring it home. Precursor gates open the road to other suns — a red ember, a frozen fall, a veil that listens, a star that argues with itself — thirteen systems, ten acts, and every one of them somebody's home. MAKE CONTACT — Meet the Vey: choose a first gift, earn an invitation, and walk six inhabited worlds where silver saucers tend the sky. Race them through Nacre's open rings, if you think your boat-and-rocket outfit can take a saucer. KEEP GOING — Endless expeditions, rotating contracts, milestones, modules, a fleet of drones, and a Prospector's Log that fills with the strange things you've found. Photo mode hides every panel when the view deserves the whole screen. EVERYWHERE — One game across iPhone, iPad, Mac and Apple TV, with full controller support and your save synced through iCloud. Game Center achievements and leaderboards included. FREE TO START — Fly Earth and the Moon for free, for as long as you like. One purchase unlocks the whole solar system and every sun beyond it, on all your devices. No ads, no subscription, no timers, and nothing decays while you're away. If you bought Sundust before it became free, the whole game is already yours. "Systems green. I'm MO, your co-pilot. Let's not die today." Land gently.
