Trappist (Sirrah)

As soon as humanity had the means we sent out an interstellar colony ship. It's design was basic but elegant. And it made it all 40.7 light-years to Trappist-1.

— Ship data files

On arrival at Trappist-1 you control the Ark. A large spaceship/moveable colony and trading hub for your exploration of Trappist-1.

Trappist is a story-driven colony builder with resource management in the Trappist-1 solar system.

You'll create and grow multiple colonies in the Trappist-1 solar system. Meet new alien friends and gradually explore the mysteries of Trappist.

Trappist offers colony building with a focus on care-free building and story. It's easy to play and respectful of your time.

Trappist is fully playable from beginning to end and is under active development. Leave a comment here or reach out to me on @SirrahGames.

Planned features and continued development

Trappist is under active development. But as solo developer I can't guarantee everything will be implemented, or will be implemented to an extent you might want or expect. I recommend you consider purchasing this game based on its current state alone.

That being said, these are some of the features I hope to implement:

• Trade routes
• Customizable starting conditions
• More colonizable planets
• More aliens
• More research projects
• Improved models and sound effects

System requirements

• Windows, Mac OS and Linux are supported
• 400 MB HDD space
• An Intel HD 620 integrated GPU or better
• Any recent-ish GPU will be able to max out the game settings
• The game should run fine on an average laptop

Controls

• Keyboard and mouse
• Left-click to select, right-click to give orders
• Move the camera with wasd or arrow keys, moving the mouse to the screen edges or click-and-drag
• Touchscreen, including drag and pinch-to-zoom
• Tutorial and documentation are available from within the game
