Don’t worry, you could just work more to pay it off.

Don’t even think about unionising.

Just cut up that salvage, youHardspace: Shipbreaker!

Liam:I really like how Hardspace: Shipbreaker sounds.

Its full of fizzes and pops.

Crispy crackles and crunchy clunks.

At its heart, Shipbreaker is a game about work.

The physical aspects of a labour intensive job that just so happens to take place in zero-g.

It wouldnt work as well without the sounds.

A view of a spaceship, floating in orbit, mid-breakdown in Hardspace: Shipbreaker

This is what flinging a volatile reactor into a barge would sound like, right?

The thrum of unstable radiation.

The deafening silence as it rushes towards the recycling section of your work space.

The pleasing ping of your lo-fi HUD that signifies safety.

Of course it is!

Oh, and the soundtrack!Americana pairs so well with the great unknown, doesnt it?

The way those plucked guitar strings sound mournful yet hopeful at the same time.

The perfect accompaniment for a life spent ship breaking.

Dont let it linger, ship breaker.

Lynx is watching, after all.
