Jumplight Odysseyis an upcoming starship roguelite colony sim from the makers ofArmello, and when Isaw it in actionlate last year, I was extremely pumped for it. It was formally announced with its very flash animated opening sequence during November’s PC Gaming Show Preview stream, but now you, too, can see what it actually looks like in motion with its very first gameplay trailer. Come and have a gander at its spaceship antics - or, if you’re like me, just watch the two full seconds of a crew member giving Ham the pig a nice big belly-rub on repeat.

In the trailer, we get to see the many layered deck innards of the SDF Catalina, the ship you’ll be piloting as captain Princess Euphora and her crew attempt to escape the deadly Zutopans and find a new place to call home. Developer League Of Geeks citedFTL,RimworldandTwo Point Hospitalas some of their key inspirations when I spoke to them about it last year, and I think you can see all of those references come to the fore in the new trailer, especially with its building sections, hectic space fires and airlock ejections, and, of course, tickling the gosh-darned wiggly belly of Ham the space pig.
