The first public build of SpaceCorps 2027: the SpaceCorps space MMO, rebuilt as a native desktop game. Fly for one of three corporations, fight aliens and other pilots in real time, found or join a clan, craft and fuse equipment, and climb the ranking through a 30-day season. The interface is available in ten languages.

The game is online only and plays on the public server https://spacecorps-game.sliplane.app. Register a pilot on the login screen, pick a server and a company, then press Launch.

Platforms

Package For
SpaceCorps2027-macos-universal.dmg macOS 12 Monterey or later, Apple silicon and Intel
SpaceCorps2027-windows-x86_64.zip Windows 10 and 11, 64-bit

SpaceCorps2027-linux-x86_64.tar.gz the same Linux build, as a folder to unpack

Graphics need Metal (macOS), DirectX 12 or Vulkan (Windows), or Vulkan (Linux, Mesa 22 or a vendor driver). The game needs 4 GB of RAM (8 GB recommended) and 400 MB of free disk space.

First launch

The builds are not signed by Apple or Microsoft yet, so your system asks once before it opens the game.

  • macOS: open the dmg and drag SpaceCorps 2027 onto Applications.
    • macOS 15 and newer: open the app once and click Done. Then go to System Settings › Privacy & Security and click Open Anyway next to "SpaceCorps 2027 was blocked".
    • macOS 12 to 14: right-click (Control-click) the app, choose Open, then Open again.
    • Or run xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine "/Applications/SpaceCorps 2027.app" in Terminal.
  • Windows: right-click the zip, choose Extract All, and start spacecorps2027.exe from the SpaceCorps 2027 folder. The assets folder must stay next to it. If SmartScreen says it "protected your PC", click More info, then Run anyway.
  • Linux: run chmod +x SpaceCorps2027-linux-x86_64.AppImage, then start it. If your system has no FUSE, run it with --appimage-extract-and-run, or unpack the tar.gz and start SpaceCorps2027/spacecorps2027.

To check a download, compare its SHA-256 with the table below or with SHA256SUMS (sha256sum -c SHA256SUMS --ignore-missing).

Known issues

  • The builds are unsigned, so macOS Gatekeeper and Windows SmartScreen warn on first launch (see above).
  • The Windows build and the Intel slice of the Mac build passed automated checks but were not play-tested on real hardware before this release. The Apple silicon and Linux builds were run. Please report anything that goes wrong.
  • There is no Windows installer. Use the zip and keep the assets folder next to the game.
  • Below 1280×720 the default HUD windows overlap the hotbar dock. Move them, or use a larger window.
  • Fullscreen from the HUD button works on macOS only. On Windows and Linux, use your window manager's fullscreen.
  • There is one public game server with limited capacity. It may restart for updates, and your ship is saved when it does.
  • Accounts cannot be deleted from inside the game yet.
