Imperio Minero beta 1.4 — free Windows playtest (English / Spanish)

Post by JesjomZeusStudio »

Hi everyone, I'm the developer of Imperio Minero, a single-player space sandbox about mining, trading, exploration, factions and building your own stations. The universe continues to evolve between sessions. A multiplayer MMO is a longer-term goal, not a feature of this beta.

Update, 6 November 2026: free beta 1.4 is available as an update to beta 1.3 build 4. It adds ten frontier expeditions, persistent decisions and faction reputation, a 3D wreck, a second Proxima chapter, five faction jobs, urgent supply deliveries, pirate Gunship encounters, new 3D stations and an expedition journal. The Gunships scan and warn but do not attack. The game supports English and Spanish.

Existing beta 1.3 build 4 players can use the automatic update. Manual patch (requires 1.3 build 4; not a complete game): https://zeus.org.es/imperio-minero/down ... -5.impatch
New players: install the full 1.3 base first, then update: https://zeus.org.es/imperio-minero/Impe ... indows.zip
Full release notes: https://zeus.org.es/imperio-minero/NOTAS_1.4_ES_EN.md

Please share what you enjoy, what is confusing and any reproducible bugs here or on the Zeus Games Discord: https://discord.gg/EUPb2dDWU . Thanks for taking a look!

A closer look at the game itself. These are in-game captures from the Windows beta, with the interface set to Spanish; English is also available.

1) The local navigation map, with nearby locations and travel controls.
2) The orbital market, showing minerals, station prices and cargo transactions.
3) Approaching the Europa habitat landing pad.

Imperio Minero is built around finding and extracting resources, then trading, refining and expanding your industrial presence. Which area would you most like to test first? What looks useful or confusing in these screens?

Beta 1.2 is available free for Windows at https://zeus.org.es/imperio-minero/ . Join the Zeus Games Discord for suggestions, discussion and bug reports: https://discord.gg/EUPb2dDWU .

Imperio Minero beta 1.3 — free Windows playtest (English / Spanish)

Post by JesjomZeusStudio »

Beta 1.3 is now available for Windows, free, in English and Spanish.

The main addition is “The Price of Returning”, a six-chapter guided campaign. Choices persist and affect reputation and later dialogue. The campaign has its own save/scenario, separate from the open world. There is also a step-by-step visual guide to the actual controls, missions covering trading, mining, manufacturing, research, rescue and jumps, and a searchable illustrated encyclopaedia with 254 entries. All 40 story scenes, choices and controls are available in English.

This release also fixes progression and docking/return issues in the guided campaign, refinery costs, market stock refresh, unpaid storage and progress displays. Full notes: https://zeus.org.es/imperio-minero/NOTAS_1.3_ES_EN.md

Full beta 1.3 download: https://zeus.org.es/imperio-minero/Impe ... indows.zip
If you have beta 1.2 build 3, open the game and accept its automatic update.
