Steam Playtest availability

Deepfield is opening up for public playtesting on Steam.

Deepfield is in active development and preparing for a public Steam playtest.

The playtest puts the core loop — exploration, industry, logistics, and combat — in more players’ hands so onboarding, balance, and presentation can tighten against real fleets in the field.

What to expect

  • Capital ships as mobile infrastructure
  • Physical resources that must be moved
  • Combat that depends on supply

How to follow along

  • Playtest on Steam when the build is live
  • Join Discord for discussion and live issues
  • Use F8 in-game for screenshot feedback
  • Vote on the priority board
