Kerbal Space Program (PC) - Steam Gift - GLOBAL

Product Overview

Kerbal Space Program is a space flight simulation game where players manage a burgeoning space agency. The game features a realistic orbital physics engine, allowing for the design, construction, and launch of rockets and spacecraft. Players are tasked with exploring a fictional star system inhabited by the Kerbals.

Key Features

• Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB) & Spaceplane Hangar (SPH): These facilities provide a comprehensive editor for constructing multi-stage rockets, rovers, aircraft, and space stations. Components include engines, fuel tanks, control surfaces, scientific instruments, and structural elements. Players can attach parts, manage fuel lines, and configure staging sequences.
• Realistic Orbital Mechanics: The game utilizes N-body orbital physics. Trajectories are calculated based on gravitational forces from celestial bodies, requiring players to understand concepts like orbital velocity, delta-V, inclination, and apoapsis/periapsis for successful maneuvers.
• Multiple Game Modes:

  • Science Mode:

    Focuses on technological progression through gathering scientific data from various biomes and celestial bodies. New parts and capabilities are unlocked by accumulating science points.

  • Career Mode:

    Combines scientific progression with resource management. Players must manage funds, reputation, and contracts in addition to scientific research. Failed missions or poor design can have financial consequences.

  • Sandbox Mode:

    Provides access to all parts and technologies from the outset, allowing players to build and launch without restrictions or resource constraints.
• Celestial Bodies: The Kerbol system includes multiple planets and moons, each with unique gravitational properties, atmospheres (or lack thereof), and terrain. These include Kerbin (home planet), Mün, Minmus, Duna, Ike, Eve, Gilly, Jool, Laythe, Vall, Tylo, Bop, Pol, and Eeloo.
• Research & Development (R&D): In Science and Career modes, players use accumulated science points to unlock new parts and technologies from a technology tree, expanding their design capabilities.
• Mission Control: Provides contracts and objectives in Career mode, offering rewards in funds, science, and reputation for successful completion.
• Tracking Station: Allows players to monitor active flights, celestial bodies, and plan orbital maneuvers using maneuver nodes.

Kerbal Space Program is delivered as a Steam Gift, globally redeemable.
