About the Game

Gameplay



Slay dino babies ... I guess? Well, as long as they're Not the momma!




Use Sabres, a friendly talking airship to travel around in the 3 star solar system Omnia.



Burn those poisonous plants! But be careful not breathing in the spores ...



Use your intellect to solve tricky puzzles!



Jump around to find hidden objects or traverse big gaps. If neccessary do a flip or grab!




Shoot at objects in your way using Barbatus' Submarinegun!



Spend your AP on over 80 mods, spells, permabilities etc.!



Decide how your EP are being distributed by changing the balance between EP and AP. More a leveler? Go for EP. Rather like to learn new skills quicker? Go for the AP!
