The Story So Far...
For millennia the ancient race known as the Shi’kegnt have ruled the galaxies. They have darkened the skies of a thousand worlds with the shadows of their mighty spacecraft, known as “Motherships”. The ravenous Harvesters use their “Landers” to descend upon terrified worlds and harvest all the resources they could find. Thriving and living on Ash, the Shi’kegnt use their mighty beam weapons to incinerate matter, transforming it to Ash for their consumption.
Now the Shi’kegnt have come to Terra. Terra was once populated with an ancient race called Humans, now all that remains is a lush and beautiful planet teaming with living creatures and untold resources to harvest.
Become The Supreme Harvester
Take on the role of a Shi’kegnt harvester, new to the world, and venture out to distant planets to make a name for yourself among the ranks of your fellow Harvesters. Upgrade your Mothership and Lander with the credits and crystals you earn from selling what you harvest abroad to the wealthy citizens of your homeworld.
Become a Supreme Shi’kegnt Harvester by traveling the known universe in your Mothership to harvest food, collect creatures, and mine for resources all to take back to your ravenous civilization in exchange for Crystals and Credits. Earn Harvester Points for everything you do and rise in the ranks of the Harvesters to become the Supreme Harvester.
Deploy Your Lander
Deploy your Lander to the surface of planets like Terra (Earth), Luna (Moon), and others to explore, harvest, collect, construct outposts, and, when there is nothing left to harvest, arvestroform (terraform) the surface of the planets into the likeness of your homeworld Arvestro to expand your civilizations reach into the stars and for the glory of your civilization.
Harvest Everything
By day or by night, maneuver your Lander into position over an unsuspecting resource and claim what's rightfully yours.
Ash Is The Spice Of Life
Ash is the most coveted resource of your civilization. Ash is the lifeblood that runs through the very heart of your race, it is a delicacy that is treasured by the highest ranks of the Shi’kegnt, and it is worth a ton of Credits. Use every tool in your arsenal to convert resources to ash for harvesting, fill your Lander with as much as it will carry, then return back to your homeworld of Arvestro to sell it all to rake in the credits from the rich to repair and upgrade your Mothership, your Lander, and gain additional options for terraforming/constructing outposts.
