Sell and Fight for Your Life in "Saleblazers," a Multiplayer Shopkeeping Survival Game

Los Angeles, CA | September 27th, 2022 – Airstrafe Interactive is proud to announce Saleblazers, an open world multiplayer shopkeeping survival game inspired by Roller Coaster Tycoon 3, Valheim, and Moonlighter. Team up to gather, fish, farm, and fight while shopkeeping on a dangerous island.

Ready for the grand opening? Sweep the floors, unlock the doors, and wishlist Saleblazers on Steam. Players eager for their first customer can open up shop with a brand new demo during Steam Next Fest from October 3rd through October 10th.

Shopkeeping Simulator

Build and expand a retail empire from scratch within a reactive open world sandbox observed by law enforcement and populated by customers with minds of their own. Cater to hungry college students suffering from limited budgets, tourists willing to buy just about anything, and obnoxious bellyachers demanding to speak to the manager. Stock shelves by gathering, crafting, farming, fishing, buying, or stealing—but think twice before going to the dark side! Robbing customers and fencing their stuff drives them away and attracts the attention of law enforcement. 

Shopkeeping and venturing out off-guard has deadly consequences. Watch out for creepy creatures, pouncing predators, enemy factions, shoplifters, and vandals! Luckily, anything from swords and scythes to couches and computers can be used as weapons. Hone in on unique roles and playstyles to survive a hostile environment. Be a food buff among friends and roleplay as a chef specializing in fire damage and cooking weapons.

Fish, farm, or craft for a cozy and calm shopkeeping experience. Build a farmers market to sell fresh fish. Open a coffee shop to serve tasty drinks and cook flavorful fare. Decorate and curate a chic clothing boutique to change the world. Build behemoth shopping complexes and obtain rare inventory for a more challenging shopkeeping experience. Print money by optimizing the gathering-crafting-stocking process and by strategically hiring NPC employees to automate operations.

In Saleblazers, citizens have organized into vibrant districts inspired by the Wild West, Venice, and Las Vegas. Gather components for a mysterious machine by exploring unique territories and defeating bosses.

Enable PvP invasions and proximity voice chat to welcome unexpected guests or take your entire lobby to visit teams on other servers temporarily. Peacefully shop, trade, or admire. Nefariously invade or wreak havoc by trolling or fighting. Anything goes!
