Jitter, a Ukrainian indie space exploration game where we play as an AI spacecraft system that has to find and rescue its crew, is announced

Ukrainian indie studio Berko Games has presented Jitter, its debut sci-fi space exploration game. The game is based on a mysterious accident that caused large-scale destruction of a mining colony in the Main Asteroid Belt. You will have to play as the AI system of a spaceship that has to find and rescue its crew.

Here's What We Know

Jitter is a space adventure simulator where you can complete each mission in different ways. Players will be able to manage ships and bases, fight enemies in outer space and on board, and give instructions to subordinate crew members.

One of the key features of Jitter is the environment destruction mechanic, which encourages players to think outside the box. For example, an enemy outpost can not only be bombarded with cannon fire or captured from the inside, but also destroyed by the debris of a neighbouring asteroid.

To survive in the harsh conditions of space, players need to ensure the reliable operation of their ships: adjust life support systems, monitor oxygen and repair damage from enemy attacks or accidents. Ships and bases can also be upgraded with modules that can be attached or detached at any time - for example, to get rid of cargo and avoid enemy fire.

The authors also promise dynamic gameplay, ship modification, space battles and boardings, and crew management in a wrapper of a mysterious sci-fi world that is made in a minimalist pixelated style in green tones.

When We Can Expect It

Jitter is scheduled for release in 2025 on PC. The game can already be added to the Steam wishlist.
