PerfectGen, a game publisher specializing in indie titles, has partnered with The Free Company to publish their upcoming game, STARIUM. This open-world RPG with bullet hell mechanics is set to be released in Early Access in Q2 2025 and features a sci-fi setting where players extract valuable fuel from stars, leading to dire consequences.

In STARIUM, players explore the galaxy of Talara, facing morally complex decisions while battling enemies and making meaningful choices that determine their journey. The game's genre-blending mechanics combine Nuclear Throne's fast-paced combat with Hades' progression system and dialogue mechanics inspired by Undertale and Disco Elysium.

PerfectGen is dedicated to publishing unique indie games, and STARIUM aligns with their mission to bring innovative titles to players. The game will be available on PC with gamepad support, and Early Access is scheduled for Q3 2025, with a full release planned for Q1 2026.

The developer behind STARIUM is Arrjan Tarach, an experienced game designer with a formal degree in game design and two years of professional experience. STARIUM is the culmination of Tarach's years of dedication to game design and storytelling.
