About the Game
Order some parts online, get your camera, and grow your StarTube channel through rocket tinkering and often wacky challenges! With great fame comes great responsibility, and a sudden wrench in your path to greatness will take you on a journey towards space.
The mysterious Next Space Rebels know that those who control the satellites now control the future of the internet. Will you join them in their race to internet freedom?
Next Space Rebels enables the joy of creation, lessons of failure, and progress of experimentation, generally reserved for complex sim games, through its accessible “notepad-style” creation tools and intertwined narrative.

Hello Everyone,
We just did a small update with some fixes. Read below what we've been working on.
fixed some conversations getting slower further in progression (such as the 'tag buying' thread)
fixed engines sometimes burning forever
fixed two scrap parts never being given to the player, now possible to collect all parts (should be added retroactively)
fishing is a bit quicker
fixed some progression issues
added paging to videos
fixed bug that in certain cases you could build without a rocket, causing issues
From now we'll focus on the late-game performance issues and hope to come up with fixes for that soon!

We just upload the first Next Space Rebels patch (version 1.6) with some first fixes.

fixed missing wall in a time lapse scene
fixed issues using a controller to buy parts in the shop
