I have been deconstructing space ships for months now. I like how each spaceship is a little puzzle, and that there is some story involved.

Are there any similar cleanup/deconstructing games?

What are you playing that scratches a similar itch as hardspace?

    Hey there, cutter.

    If you’re really after the deconstruction aspect, then I’m not sure there’s a whole lot out there. But if you zoom out to the level of “methodically tinkering with a system that requires careful attention”, there’s a lot of those.

    Hardship Breakspacer is part of a (pseudo-)genre known as “dad games”.

    • Powerwash Sim
    • Viscera Cleanup Detail
    • Goblin Cleanup
    • Pacific Drive
    • Papers Please
    • Quarantine Zone
    • House Flipper 2
    • Star Trucker
    • Dredge

    On the “hardcore nerd” end of the spectrum, there’s even:

    • Satisfactory
    • Factorio
    • Scrap Mechanic
    • Any Zachtronics game

    A little more chill:

    • Unpacking
    • Potion Craft
    • Please Fix The Road

    Edit: Or for the “scraping my way through out in space” vibe, but less tinkering:

    • Endless Sky (free and open source!)
    • FTL
