Since 2005, we've helped thousands of people get the perfect domain name
  • No hidden prices or surprises. I never thought I could buy my domain. - Shailendra Mishra, 7/17/2019
  • The half star off is only due to not being able to budge on the price. I found it rather steep for the domain. However, after reading in to, and talking to a sales rep about the payment plan option, I found it very generous. I "m able to spread the payments over 18 months, while getting immediate access to the domain. It did not require a social security number or personal information beyond billing, which appears to be through NameBright, the domain registry service they use, rather than through HugeDomains themselves, which is nice. I "m happy to own a domain I"ve wanted for a while, now, and overall very satisfied that I was able to get it. - Jacob Torrence, 7/16/2019

Questions from the players (from the comments to the guide)

  • Has anyone else run into a single player problem. I can't launch it. I join publics without problems, but the sing does not work.
    As it became known later (thanks to the person who asked this question) - a single player game may not start if you have spaces or special characters in your Steam nickname.
  • How to start local multiplayer?
    Read about the server launch and other details of the multiplayer game in the "Multiplayer game" section.
  • Where to mine Azurium?
    Azurnium is mined in space, on asteroids located there. Sometimes it can be found on the planet in the form of fallen asteroids.
  • How to fix a droid?
    The droid can be repaired with the Multi-Tool.
  • What to do if a droid is destroyed?
    So far, there is no way to restore it in the game. Just save and re-enter the game - the droid will appear next to you, safe and sound.
  • Can a worm be killed?
    So far, there is no such possibility.
  • How to invite a friend to a party?!
    First you need to create a colony, and then go to a friend and invite him by pressing the "F" button. More detailed information- in the "Multiplayer" section of the guide.
  • Oxygen in the spacesuit is restored by itself (unless, of course, it has reached zero percent), is this a bug or am I not understanding something?
    No, this is not a bug, everything is as it should be. To spend less oxygen, you should use the Jetpack more often. You can also restore oxygen in the Inflatable Dome or Habitat (if an Oxygen Generator is installed there).

It all started in 2046, with the invention of an engine for interstellar flights by mankind, which opened up endless possibilities for expeditionary missions into deep space. One of the expeditions, called Osiris, was called to visit the star system Gliese 581 (which by the way exists in reality), but something went wrong and the team was forced to make an emergency landing on one of the planets of this system.

The plot of the game, although similar to most fiction books, is much more interesting to survive on a distant planet full of unpredictable dangers. So, we are dealing with an adventure indie sandbox, designed for a small multiplayer, single player or cooperative. We will have to do everything: growing potatoes, digging, crafting, digging, killing mobs, digging again, as well as exploring neighboring planets.

The last feature is quite interesting in terms of gameplay, it's a pity that in real world this is not possible (especially after skating in the COP or Dota). Among others interesting opportunities we can distinguish modern graphics, the ability to switch the view from the first and third person, a system of scientific research and pumping.

All in all, if you're into sci-fi and love to travel, Osiris: New Dawn is a great fit. Too bad the project is in early access and is not deprived of a bunch of bugs, but, judging by the reviews and updates, they are actively involved in it, so you can comfortably count on a quick study of other worlds.

Crashed on an unknown planet, you must explore the unpredictable environment, befriend the natives and build new ship. Wonders, hostile races and meteor showers await you. Wait, what's with the co-op?

After a hard landing on the planet, the main components of your starship fell into disrepair. Now it is desirable for you and your comrades to establish a colony on an open planet, explore it and find resources that will help restore the ship. You will have to fight or tame alien creatures, look for mineral deposits, build shelters from meteorites and get food.

In 2046, mankind managed to create an engine that allowed sending expeditions into deep space. Players will try on the overalls of the research team Osiris who went to explore the star system Gliese 581. While exploring potentially habitable planets, your high-speed engine malfunctioned and forced you to make a hard landing on an unexplored planet.


After disembarking, players will not be constrained in their freedom of choice - they can explore the celestial body, however, common sense advises you to first build an efficient base that will supply you with food, tools and weapons. The central base is a living compartment of the spacecraft, to which you can attach blocks - food, scientific, industrial and many others.

In the future, you will have to improve technology, and for this you will have to study the planet more deeply and find unique resources. And here the players are in for a surprise - in the far corners of the planet you will encounter grotesque creatures who, for example, can freeze your blood or drink it. As a rule, such "gifts" spawn near resource-rich places.


You can build a prosperous colony only with friends, so the game contains all the attributes of a quality multiplayer– crafting, building, joint research and combat system. Everything you need, you will have to create yourself - from protection against meteorites and miasma, ending with fortifications from other online players. The higher your technological development, the better the products will be.

For example, weapons are the first means of survival that will be your constant companion throughout the game. Immediately after landing, you can only scare the creatures that inhabit the planet. In the future, you will build a workbench that will allow you to upgrade your weapons to local realities. If you want war, then real workshops, machines and storage facilities will be required. But you can experiment and create amazing designs.


Finally, the final part of the adventure is the construction of a new spaceship, which will allow you to travel and discover other planets. It will be extremely difficult to achieve the goal, the components for the starship are at the very top of the production chain. True, at the moment it does not make much sense - space is empty, and new planets will appear only in the future.

Osiris: New Dawn- a typical indie project, which is in early access. Nevertheless, the authors in all seriousness declare: “The game has AAA qualities such as: HDR lighting and textures high definition who create a frightening and magnificent world". In fact, the world of the game will not be difficult to go around in transport, and the AI ​​of hostile mobs will not create any difficulties for you.
