Kitten Space Agency is an in-development spiritual successor to Kerbal Space Program from RocketWerkz that you can try right now for free.

It's using a crowdfunding model to pull in supporters via ahwoo, which allows you to try the game completely free without paying a penny and it's your choice to donate after if you feel it's worth it. With what happened to Kerbal Space Program 2 where we still don't entirely know what's going on but the game is basically dead, another developer picking up the torch seems like an interesting idea for fans of the original.

More about it: Kitten Space Agency is a space-flight game that turns real aerospace concepts into something you can learn, test, and explore. Built in Auckland, New Zealand by RocketWerkz, the project aims to inspire future explorers while giving players deep control over engineering, mission planning, and flight execution. KSA is powered by RocketWerkz's new BRUTAL development framework, designed to enable moddability, high performance, and long-term scalability.

Nice to see an alternative. The fact that KSP2 is still for sale is just shameful. It’s effectively abandonware.

Not naming it Furball Space Agency feels like a missed opportunity.

What's wrong with RocketWerkz?

I like stationeers, but saw that in recent years they've been adding a lotta paid dlc bullshit, perhaps that's why. Especially questionable considering it's still in early access after what like 10 or so years?
