Sector Vestige

Sector Vestige is a custom-content fork of Space Station 14, building its own unique gameplay experience with original mechanics, stations, and assets while staying aligned with the upstream SS14 codebase.

We actively develop new systems, balance changes, and exclusive content to support our long-term vision. While much remains familiar to upstream players, Sector Vestige is steadily establishing its own identity on the SS14 platform.

Space Station 14 is a remake of SS13, powered by RobustToolbox — an open-source C# engine purpose-built for multiplayer, tile-based simulation games.
