Every year, Steam gives the “Labor of Love” award to games that have been out for a while and continue to receive new content and support year after year. If you feel we are worthy, please nominate Universe Sandbox for the "Labor of Love" award!
This year, we celebrated the 10-year anniversary of Universe Sandbox’s Early Access launch on Steam. We're proud of what we've accomplished in the last decade and are excited about the future.
Features we’re actively working on include:
Improving collisions with more realistic friction, craters, and simulating atmospheric drag, which allows meteors to burn up in the atmosphere. (A preview version with these features is coming soon)
Adding basic life simulation where life responds to the environment, spreads, dies, and can be eaten.
Better collisions of objects, from simple shapes like dice to complex shapes like spacecraft, according to their unique shape, using rigid-body physics.
Learn more about what we’re currently working on in our 2025 Roadmap post.
We're so grateful that we've been able to continue improving and developing Universe Sandbox for over 10 years. Thank you all for the amazing support and the opportunity to make this crazy game.
