Build an Interstellar Industrial Empire! Space Factory Builder 'Prime Star Order' Launches on Steam Early Access Today

Engines started, ready for departure—this space simulation automation building game officially begins its Early Access journey

Set sail for the frontiers of the known human universe and establish your own intergalactic industrial empire in the vast sea of stars! Main Sequence, a first-person space simulation factory-building game developed by Tumbling Dumpling Studio and published by Mythwright, officially launches on Steam for Early Access today.

It all begins with a small mining ship on an asteroid belt rich in resources: From here, players will set sail, gathering resources and developing industry to gradually build an automated production network spanning the galaxy, extending humanity's footprint to the uncharted edges of the stars.

Main Sequence Early Access Launch Trailer:

Mine and refine various mineral resources in the depths of space, freely design space stations using different modules, and build your own automated factories. From deploying production equipment and laying conveyor belts to repeatedly adjusting plans for the most efficient production lines, every aspect is crafted by the player.

Once the production system of a single space station operates steadily, you can further establish automated supply routes between stations. Assemble your own transport fleet to efficiently circulate resources between different bases, gradually constructing a production and logistics network that spans the galaxy.

Beyond building factories, the vast universe holds countless unknowns waiting to be explored. Players can pilot their ships deep into the sea of stars alone or embark on adventures side-by-side with friends through online co-op mode. Collect rare resources, research advanced technologies, and explore new star sectors, allowing the map of your industrial empire to extend ever deeper into the cosmos.

However, the journey among the stars is not without its challenges. Facing threats from alien civilizations, players must pilot warships into space battles to defend their industrial empires. During their explorations, players will encounter cosmic wonders such as black holes and neutron stars, visit abandoned ruins, and leave their own mark on the vast starry sky.

The Early Access version of Main Sequence officially launched on Steam at midnight on November 13 (Beijing Time), priced at 87 RMB / $24.99 USD / €24.99 EUR. A limited-time 20% discount will be available for the first two weeks after launch.
