Enjoy your brief exciting position on our psychotic friendly crew!
What is this?!?!
What do you get when you shove 10 to 50 rejects from society onto a space station, and tell them to run the thing as best they can? What happens when you add in a clown, a chaplain, robots, monkeys, a wizard, blobs, and a few traitorous individuals up to no good?
Whatever it is, it won't be anywhere as bad as Space Station 13, your new home! In these hallowed archives you will find guides, information, and other things that will help you survive your tenure upon this cursed installation in the deepest reaches of space.
SS13 is a free 2d sprite-based multiplayer game on the BYOND engine. This wiki is for the Cool Dagger Kid version of the game, based off of the May 2010 public release put out by the Something Awful goonstation.
How is this different from Goonstation?
Starting out, we don't have much different than goonstation did in May. We added our own version of hydroponics (actual hydroponics, using nothing but water and nutrients), have begun altering the station layout (kitchen and cafeteria are a bit larger, the bar has a more cramped feeling) but as time goes on we'll be adding stuff regularly to CDK SS13.
What do you have planned?
Lots, but here are a few things to start with :
- Moving the station's main functions back to a 'research' station like it was supposed to be by creating the Researcher job.
- More in depth food and drink creation system
- New game modes like Welder, Monkey Cult, Cloak and Dagger, Paranoia, and others.
Okay, so how do I join?
If you don't already, get yourself an account and download BYOND. CDK SS13 isn't up regularly just yet, but when we get to a comfortable spot with the new items, it should be up on a consistant basis.
Oh god, what the hell do I do? A clown just hit me with an oxygen tank and a wizard caused me to explode!
Calm down. Take a deep breath with whatever is left of your lungs.

When you've mastered that, the sky's the limit in the various ways you'll be toolboxed and killed!
