About the Game

Since the dawn of interstellar travel, humanity has dominated the universe. But all things must come to an end, the universe included. Some look to the gods for solace at the end of time, but even they can offer no peace. Only the most stubborn would attempt to evade such a cataclysmic demise, and you happen to be one of them. Travel the galaxy, destroying anything and anyone that might get in the way of your survival. Customize your ship to give you a fighting chance to annihilate threats like aliens, robots and even the gods.
