About Junkyard Space Agency
Junkyard Space Agency is a gritty indie simulator where you build and manage a space agency using salvaged parts in a realistic physics-driven universe. Developed by Nullterm and released on December 31 2026 it lets you craft rickety ships from scrap haul resources and survive in a harsh solar system. Available on PC Linux and Mac the game supports solo play co-op and multiplayer. Its focus is on resource management and engineering challenges with a focus on realism over polish. Expect a steep learning curve but a rewarding loop of scavenging upgrading and barely staying afloat.
Gameplay
You spend hours scavenging derelict ships and asteroids to collect parts then drag components onto a grid to assemble vessels. Each ship handles differently based on its layout and part quality. You’ll haul cargo hunt for rare parts and navigate hazards like solar flares. Missions include repairing client ships or delivering goods under time pressure. Controls are keyboard-centric with a focus on quick building and inventory management. Sessions often end in fiery crashes or last-minute salvages. Multiplayer co-op adds chaos as you coordinate with others to keep your fleet operational while balancing debt and part shortages.
What Players Think
PlayPile community ratings are high at 4.2/5 with 82% completion rate and average playtime of 28 hours. Users report mixed moods: “Frustrating but addictive” is common while critics praise its “authentic engineering grind.” A 2027 review in SpaceSim Weekly called it “the best scrap-to-stars sim since 2018.” Achievement completion is 68% with 150 total and 48 challenge milestones. Most play sessions peak at 10 hours but many admit to “death spiraling into debt.” Critic scores average 88/100.
PlayPile's Take
Junkyard Space Agency thrives for players who love deep management and co-op chaos. At $29.99 it’s a mid-tier buy but the 40-hour median playtime justifies the cost. Achievements focus on efficiency and survival rather than combat. Not for casual players its realism and part-placement physics create a niche appeal. If you enjoy balancing budgets and fixing broken ships under pressure this is your game. Expect a steep grind but the satisfaction of a barely-airtight ship surviving a solar storm is unmatched.
