About the Game

You Had Embarked to the Outer Rim.

The Ship You Were On Has Been Boarded.

Now you’re waking up in a jail complex on an unknown planet, beaten and left for dead.

Find a way out of here and get back to earth in FLAW, a retro-FPS inspired by cult classics: Unreal, Half-Life, Halo and many other.

You and the Flaming Dawn’s passengers have been abducted while on the way to a distant colony on the Outer Rim. You were looking for a better life among the stars, you have yet found only despair and darkness.

Run

through the metal environment of this hive-planet and face many living and dead dangerous creatures.

Shoot

your way out of here and use any weapons your fallen enemies had but be careful on your bullets management.

Rescue

the crew and the passengers of the Flaming Dawn. Even if most of them are civilians without proper training, any help can make the difference. 

Escape

a fate worse than death and uncover the truth behind these abductions.
