About the Game

EARLY ACCESS

Game is currently an early access demo that only contains the first 3 levels. See Early Access details to know the expected development timeline.

A storm is brewing behind the scenes. You start out as a normal, unsuspecting person on Earth, but your story is about to turn upside down as you encounter UFOs, Aliens, and the military. Aliens Are Coming to Earth, and some hard choices are coming your way. What will you do? Who will you trust? What will you fight for? How will it all turn out?

This Indie Single Player Sci-Fi Adventure/RPG game will send you beyond Earth and back again as you get swept up into all of the secrecy surrounding Aliens and UFOs. Visit exotic places, meet Aliens, make alliances and enemies alike as you make critical decisions and fight for what you think is right. Time is short, because it's 2024, and Aliens Are Coming!

This story rich 2D side-scroller adventure game is in early release. The initial early release experience is mostly a cinematic experience with 2 mini-games (motorcycle racing and stealth/sneaking). As more scenes are added to the game, you will eventually:

  • Choose your character's specialties, stats, and skills over time through your dialogue and action choices

  • Learn to use psionic powers such as telekinesis, telepathy, shielding, remote viewing, psionic blasts, and healing

  • Acquire your own top-secret military black-triangle spaceship and travel to several unique adventures on Earth, the Moon, Mars, Ceres, Ganymede, Space Stations, and eventually even planets in other star systems once your ship unlocks the wormhole jump upgrade.

  • Encounter unique characters throughout the story who can become your companions as you travel through space

As a roleplaying adventure game, gameplay will vary widely as more areas are added to the game, which will include:

  • 2D space shooter fighting and travel

  • 2D beat-em-up style fighting with secret high-tech weaponry when on the ground or in a spaceship

  • Psionic training minigames to build your focus

  • Diplomatic encounters with high-stakes dialogue choices

  • Companion/party management as you manage your subordinates' skills and equipment

Keep an open mind and prepare yourself for the secrets and changes to your reality, because Aliens Are Coming!
