How these estimates are made

Pixel Starships

We estimate that about 970 people play Pixel Starships on a typical day (most likely between 700 and 1,400), based on data from Nov 12, 2026. Around 120,000 accounts (between 90,000 and 150,000) have played it at some point. It is anchored on Steam’s official concurrent-player count, converted to daily players, so players on other launchers or consoles may not be fully counted. Confidence: medium — Steam covers part of the player base, or several community signals agree.

Starbase

We estimate that about 900 people play Starbase on a typical day (most likely between 210 and 2,700), based on data from Nov 12, 2026. Around 210,000 accounts (between 170,000 and 270,000) have played it at some point. Starbase is on Steam, but Steam covers only part of its players, so the estimate also draws on the size of its Discord, Reddit, Twitch, YouTube and app-store communities. Confidence: medium — Steam covers part of the player base, or several community signals agree.
