Stellar Overload

Stellar Overload Overview

Stellar Overload (first announced under the name Planets³) is a buy-to-play voxel sandbox MMOFPS that clearly draws from the “build, dig, craft” lineage popularized by games like Minecraft and, to a degree, Trove. Its hook is the sense of scale, instead of a single overworld, you travel across multiple cubic planets, each offering its own caves, dungeons, enemies, and materials to chase. The narrative framing is straightforward and functional: you are pushed outward into the stars to research technologies and grow stronger, with the bigger objective of eventually returning to your home world and pushing back the robot forces occupying it.

In scenario mode, progression is driven by a main quest line and a steady ladder of gear and recipes. Exploration feeds combat, combat feeds crafting, and crafting feeds exploration again. You head underground to mine and scavenge, clear out hostile zones for better drops, and crack open chests for materials and blueprints. The crafting interface is one of the game’s better qualities, it is approachable, well organized, and pairs nicely with the building tools so you can go from raw resources to functional structures without excessive friction.

Your toolset expands in a satisfying, practical way. Vehicles help reduce the downtime of crossing large stretches of terrain, and gadgets like a jet pack make vertical movement and cave navigation far less tedious. Weapons and armor steadily open up as you gather rarer components, letting you handle tougher monsters as you move into higher-risk areas. Base building is not just cosmetic either, it can serve as a safe staging point, a storage hub, or a quick shelter when you are far from a friendly area. If you prefer creating without the pressure of objectives, creative mode removes the scenario constraints and focuses entirely on freeform construction.

Although the playerbase ultimately ended up being small, the game was designed with co-op in mind. Bringing friends along makes planetary exploration smoother and dungeon runs more manageable, and it gives the building side of the game more purpose as you plan shared outposts and projects.
