Astro Prospector casts the player as a miner and fighter taking on SpaceCorp. In Story Mode, you gather resources from cofferoids, steal AstroCoffee seeds, and upgrade your ship while enemy machines pursue you. Its incremental progression is paired with bullet-hell combat: dodge incoming fire, destroy machines, and work through zones featuring distinct enemies and bosses.
The game also describes an Endless Coffee mode built around survivors-like runs and ship construction. Its stated structure is to survive 21 days, then continue in Endless mode to push as far as possible. Nine ships offer different gameplay, while levelling up and winning with each can unlock skills. A large pool of upgrades supports combinations that can reshape a run, giving ship choice and upgrade discovery a central role alongside combat.
Its listed category is single-player, so the game is presented as a solo experience focused on building power against SpaceCorp.
