RuneSpace / Wiki
Getting Started
What RuneSpace is right now, and how Location, Map, Journey, Inventory, and Missions fit together.
RuneSpace is a browser-first, low-fi sci-fi RPG. You're stranded on Holo Hollow with a wrecked ship and a short list of people who know how to make the situation less permanent.
You start at the Crash Site. Wade Rusk, who runs recovery and salvage out here, is the first person worth talking to.
The three views
Play moves between three connected surfaces. Location is where you stand and decide what to do. Map shows the connected places in Holo Hollow and lets you choose where to walk next. Journey is what you see while a walk is underway.
The early loop
A normal session looks like this:
- Check the Map and walk to a location that has work — The Jag for Mining, the Abandoned Processing Yard for Refining.
- Do the work, then walk back when you have something worth bringing home.
- Talk to Wade Rusk or Tansy Rusk — they hand out the current jobs and react to your progress.
- Put Refined Ferrite and Slag toward the Cargo Hold repair back at the Crash Site.
Where to go next
See Travel & Scavenging for how walking works, Mining & Refining for the two work loops, and Missions for the full job list.
