About the Game

Drop onto hostile planets with limited ammo and oxygen, hunt down strange alien life, mine rare ores, and grab everything you can before your oxygen runs dry. Every run is a risk-reward decision: stay longer for bigger profits, or head back before you lose it all. Cash in your haul, invest in upgrades, and prepare for the next, more profitable expedition.

Run-Based Exploration with Real Stakes Land on dangerous planets, manage limited resources, and decide how far to push each expedition.

Hunt and Capture Alien Life Discover and capture a wide range of creatures, from common finds to rare, high-value targets.

Mine Rare Planetary Resources Extract valuable ores during runs to boost your profits and diversify your strategy.

Incremental Progression That Builds Over Time Turn every successful run into permanent upgrades, unlocking stronger weapons, better tools, and higher earning potential.

Expanding Upgrade Tree Invest in weapons, ammo capacity, oxygen efficiency, support tools, and powerful income multipliers.

Hire Mercenaries Scale your operation by bringing in extra help to capture more while you focus on survival.

A True “One More Run” Loop Short, high-pressure runs combined with constant progression make it easy to jump back in and keep improving.

Push deeper. Extract more. Come back richer and stronger.
