Orbiteer × Asteroid Lab: Expanding the Orbit

Orbiteer and Asteroid Lab: Terraformers partnership

Partnership

Partnership

Over the past months, we've been focused on building something that feels fundamentally different.

Not another platform built on noise and volume, but a high-signal environment where the right people, opportunities, and ideas can connect with intent.

But space doesn't exist in isolation.

It's shaped not only by engineers, founders, and operators, but also by the creators who bring these ideas to life in different ways. The stories we tell, the simulations we build, the way we imagine the future, all of it contributes to how this industry evolves.

And games play a bigger role in that than most people realise.

They don't just entertain the current generation, they help inspire the next one. For many, they are the first exposure to complex systems, exploration, and the idea that building beyond Earth is even possible.

That's why we're excited to partner with Asteroid Lab.

The game

From Industry to Imagination

Asteroid Lab are the team behind Terraformers, a turn-based strategy game that puts you in charge of developing and sustaining life on Mars.

It's a different lens on the same challenges many in this industry think about every day. Resource constraints, long-term planning, system trade-offs, and the complexity of building something that actually works beyond Earth.

They've recently released their latest expansion, Terraformers: Independence, which adds new layers of autonomy, strategy, and progression to the game.

Giveaway

Celebrating the Launch

To mark the release of their latest expansion, and as we prepare to launch the next iteration of Orbiteer, we're giving away 20 Steam keys for Terraformers (full base game) to the Orbiteer community.

Each key gives you free access to the full base game on Steam.

Context

Why this matters

This isn't just a giveaway.

It's a small reflection of what we're building.

A network where the space sector connects across disciplines. Where technical work, commercial thinking, and creative exploration all sit within the same orbit.

Because the future of space won't be shaped by a single perspective.

It will be shaped by the intersection of many.

Closing
